Is there a away this could be changed to to all folders [or, perhaps all
new messages?]

I note that the Junkmail settings include an option "check for junk in
all folders"; we already have significant junk testing (sa, etc)
happening server side, but we also have server side sorting into various
folders - result, I get new messages all over the place.

[This is in place to make webmail worthwhile. I could, of course, jsut
have everything come through INBOX and have evolution sort them client
side, but it would make our webmail interface largely useless as my
inbox there would be crammed full. I'm on the road enough that I
regrettably cannot always get a laptop with Evolution hooked up to the
internet to do the sorting]

It would be brilliant if filters could be automatically applied to new
messages regardless of the folder they come in on, rather than just
INBOX.

Maildrop is imminently suited to this job, and can be easily be
plugged into postfix and qmail.  Presumably it would work just as
well with sendmail or exim.

Then, filtering is independent of the MUA and the webmail interface
would have no difficulties.

I looked through the list archives but couldn't find anything to answer
this - sorry if it's been discussed recently.
