    configureTemporaryFilters()

    for mail, this configures both the MDN filter, and the server-side spam filter filters, if needed.

    If we have set up to filter return receipts into our Sent folder, this utility method creates a filter to do that, and adds it to our filterList if it doesn't exist. If it does, it will enable it.

    this is not used by news filters (yet).
