The only problem I find of moving email from different accounts to 
different folders using filters, is that once you have the emails in the 
new folder  you can't apply filters to that folder automaticaly again, 
can you?  So you move the emails from one particular account into one 
folder and then there're no more filters  available to sort out that 
folder, automaticaly.
With Vfolders I find basicaly the same because filters are applyed 
automaticaly either to incoming or outgoing email only, not to other 
folders.
