Hi Markus
Yes, you want to use Sieve for this, it is very simple. I have use smartsieve 
[1] here - it is a web based frontend to enable users to create quite complex 
filtering rules. Not sure how well it will mix with the kolab web gui sieve 
rules, but I have had no problems as long as they are not mixed. I can't 
remember the details of installing, but I'm pretty sure it was a simple 
untar, vi some.conf and then run. If you have problems, mail and I will look 
at my setup to advise :)
Cheers,
Hamish
