[Evolution] Filter woes

[Lloyd D Budd <lloyd foolswisdom com>]

Hi RN,

Oddly, I was specifically looking to see if there was an update on this
issue.  I do not believe that there is a conclusion.  

"Delete actions are saved until the very end. this way if you have
filters which would copy the message elsewhere, it doesn't get copied
with the delete flag."

AFAIK, my response, and questions ares still unanswered:
http://article.gmane.org/gmane.comp.gnome.evolution.general/14453
- Is [this deferral] documented?
- Can this be disabled?  what is the point of ordering then?

Cheers,
Lloyd
