While learning some Python....
A script to read the mailFilters.xml file that you get by exporting your gmail filters
It creates a csv file with an index, the from field if it is populated, the hasTheWord if populate, the label to which the email gets assigned, and the properties forwardTo and/or the shouldTrash ones
