That being said, when I re-setup my accounts from scratch I needed to setup my filters in order to control the flood of mails I get. I used the right-click menu (Create Rule From Message -> Filter Based On Mailing List). I then set the directory to move the message to which is a folder on the IMAP server where my account is located. The problem comes around when I try to manually trigger the filter on a relevant message by pressing ctrl+y - in fact the message in question is the one I created the filter from in the first place. When I do this I get a message at the bottom of the Evolution window stating that it failed to apply the filter (or some similar wording).
Hi Jared, Just a curiosity, since you said you are using IMAP: Can you please show us the piece of the ./evolution/mail/filters.xml that has the rule? I just noticed something, but I do not know since when this has happened: the last filter I created (moving to an IMAP target) had the target uri wrong, pointing to the local mail. For example: <actionset> <part name="move-to-folder"> <value name="folder" type="folder"> <folder uri="email://local local/Tests/Mail/URI"/> </value> </part> <part name="stop"/> </actionset> The actual target URI should have been uri="email://1176404371 15775 3 xango/Tests/Mail/URI"/> Again, I do not know since when, and will run Evo 2.24 to see what happens (I am running trunk).
