Update: The above only seems to apply to top level folders if several folders are nested inside each other. I have (second level) subfolders containing spaces in their names where nothing happens when a Filter is applied

When filters are run that point to a folder whose name contains spaces, i get an error message complaining about an invalid folder address, quoting the offending address roughly like this "some_number_path/to/folder/firstword%20secondword" I tried to rename folders to eliminate the space character shown as %20. That solved the problem for me and filters run. If spaces are allowed in the IMAP standard, evolution should be able to handle them. If not, it should provide a meaningful message to the user suggesting to rename the offending folder(s).
