Basically this is covered in the old manual by
http://library.gnome.org/users/evolution/2.32/usage-mail-organize-filters.html.en
however it's not really explaining it well. :)

No idea what "M-client" is. Upstream Evolution does not have any
predefined filters; if this filter has not been created by you it might
have been your distribution though that would also surprise me.

You can click "Edit" under "Edit > Message Filters" to see what the
conditions (e.g. "Sender is [email protected]") are to get that filter
applied with its actions (e.g. "move message from Inbox to folder foo").

HTH,
