Filters usually work on incoming mail when there is no active folder.
If you mean when you do 'Ctrl-Y' then that works on a selected message,
not an account - you can select a load of messages (like all in a
folder) for it to work on.

If you mean Search pattern, then there is a drop down to the right of
the search bar that determines the scope of the search.
