is rumored to have said:
This is what I do for all my archive and auto-delete functions, but
it seems to me that the rules in the smart mailbox don't always fire
until I click on the mailbox to view it, a bit like Schrödinger's
mailbox. I also find this behavior in general, e.g., I see a new
message arrive in my main Inbox that should have been moved by a rule
to a different mailbox, but instead it sits in my Inbox for hours
(maybe longer) but if I click on the mailbox to which it should have
been moved, there it is and it's gone when I switch back to the
Inbox. It seems that, for whatever reason, rules don't always trigger
or at least the effect of them running isn't always visible. But
other times they do seem to run automatically.
This is an IMAP artifact. You don't see the message in the new
location until you resynch the new location.
You're saying that MailMate doesn't resync a mailbox after it moves a
message? And furthermore, ignores IDLE, which my server supports and
which MM issues? Even if that was the case (which seems very hard to
believe), then how is that the rules do work as intended at other times?
