[Evolution] Rules for mbox or IMAP account not applied

[Philipp Frauenfelder <philipp frauenfelder-kuerner ch>]

Hi

I have started to use evolution only very recently (switched from mutt).
I have several accounts in my evolution 2.12 (Debian unstable). Some are
POP, one is the local spool ($HOME/Mail/INBOX) and one is IMAP. The POP
accounts are working fine with respect to the rules (mails from mailing
lists get sorted into the correct folders).

However, the rules are not applied to the mails received through IMAP or
MBOX although I have ticked the "apply rules" for both accounts. What
else do I have to check?

In addition to the mailing list rules, I have set up a rule to move all
the mails from the MBOX to my evolution inbox and to copy all the mails
from the IMAP to the evolution inbox. These two rules as well are not
applied automatically. If I hit Ctrl-Y to force the rules, the mails are
moved/copied as the rules say. What's wrong here?

Thanks for any hints.

Regards
