Re: [Evolution] Filters on Folders

[Joseph Phillips <jphillips amphus com>]

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.
