Re: [Evolution] Use filters on emails through IMAP

[Jeffrey Stedfast <fejj ximian com>]

The problem is that the server, for one reason or another, is not
telling Evolution that these messages are \Recent (that's an IMAP flag).
Perhaps you have another client or mail-check applet pointed at the same
IMAP server? Or perhaps Exchange is just buggy... or god knows.

The first client to access \Recent messages on a server removes the
\Recent flag, so any client that comes along later will not see the
flags and hence not know that they are "new".
