        Hi,
if I can step in, currently everything new on the machine, either Seen
or not on the server, is considered as a new message. The only
constraint seems to be that the message should not be copied by
evolution (with IMAP+ provider). There were done similar changes for the
old IMAP provider as well, quite some time ago.

Loïc, could you check whether you've setup message filtering on the
account? It is in account Properties, on Receiving Options tab, those
two at the bottom, "Apply filters...". You can also set filtering for
respective folders, in folder properties, but I'm not sure since when
it's possible with IMAP+, the old IMAP had it for several releases.

Also, are your filters on Subject, and similar headers, or rather on
message source location? I'm only curious, because if the filters work
when you apply them manually, then there might not be much room for an
issue with filter conditions. 
        Hope it helps,
        Milan
