Imail is not filtering as advertised. It looks like it is not
parsing or matching text accurately. I have filters engaged for header
text, body text, and specific from and to text. I have mail passing
right through each day that should have been redirected by two or
even three filter settings. It will work much of the time but fail
much of the time. I even have seen it work on an email address at
one moment but not the next.
I do not know if this can be applied to the above setting but if
parsing and matching for headers is not working fully, then that
could be related to the above setting if it did not even 'see'
the IP address.
