E-mail defaults can be per folder, IMS.

I have not seen a way to import filters into Evolution. In fact, I have
gotten so tired of this with mail readers in general that I now use procmail
to filter my incoming mail. That way it is done once and for all mail
readers that can access my mail store. This also helps as my mail is managed
on my pc by imap. I can access it via Evolution or web mail reader.  I don't
want to set up filters in every web mail reader on the planet. So, I do it
as each message arrives by procmail. Then Sylpheed (at work), Evolution (at
home) and SquirrelMail (abroad) all use IMAP and get 'pre-filtered' mail.
None of them have any filter rules.

It is the only way to stay filter sane.
