Reading the FAQ again and thinking about, I have the feeling that this
(filtering in an Exchange located Inbox) can't work at all. The mail
arrives in the Exchange server's Inbox, regardless if I'm connected to
this with my Evolution client. Only filters which are installed there on
the other side of the world could be run through, but not mine one I'm
defining locally. This kind of filtering can only work locally based on
IMAP fetches.

Someone should correct the FAQ, I think.
