Checking every folder can be slow (my > conjecture; I haven't measured it). Obviously the "Check for mail in all folders" option would take a little more time, than check just the Inbox.

Has anyone filed a feature request for this? No you cant, AFAIK there is no such request. (Subscriptions come close to what you have in mind, although you would be able to see *only* subscribed folders then, which does not make much sense overall.) > > Note that some of the folders are shared, i.e. mail arrives in them "by > magic" and not via Evo, so there's no chance of invoking a filter. Magic?? (and not via Evo??). If you are using Evolution, they should obviously come thru Evo.
