It's interesting that you mentioned sieve, because my first thought was
that a sieve extension might be more appropriate. I don't know that
there's a lightweight implementation out there that could be leveraged,
but it has one big advantage: mail administrators have a fighting chance
of already being familiar with the syntax.
I've no experience with Lua, unless you count being friends with
a graphics grad student who works for a video chipset maker, so I don't
really have any input to offer it as a language choice. I do know that,
as someone who was an email administrator in a past life and works with
other email administrators (in both design/build and operations roles)
daily, I don't know a single one who has prior experience with Lua.
