Re: [Evolution] Filters on Folders



I just tried setting the "Apply filters to new messages in INBOX on this
server" in the Receiving Options of my Mail Account.

Unfortunately, it doesn't work.

I received some new mail from a mailing list that I have a filter rule
to move to one of my local folders, but the mail remains in my inbox
without getting moved.

If I manually select "Appy Filters", then it gets moved properly.  It's
just not working automatically like I would expect.

Any more ideas?  Thanks.

Is there a way to have the filter automatically applied whenever a new
email is received?

Have you set "Apply Filters" for the account?

 Tools / Settings / Mail Accounts / <account> Edit / Receiving Options
 [x] Apply filters to new messages in INBOX on this server


By the way, my Inbox is connecting via IMAP to an NT 4.0 Exchange
Server.

Dunno, if the Exchange server matters, but that is the option for IMAP
accounts.
