That's because that is where your SERVER delivers the mail. In IMAP land, you are only able to ever have a single folder open at a time and so we cannot filter INBOX when you are reading MyOtherFolder. If you want filtering to take affect before mail gets delivered to your IMAP INBOX, then you need to setup server-side filtering. > > Previously this was all done as the mail was downloaded, going to the > appropriate folder immediately.

Create the folder on the server? I don't know of any other way. Jeff -- Jeffrey Stedfast Evolution Hacker - Ximian, Inc.
