Thanks for the heads up. Yes, I'm using IMAP and TB3. So I'm sure this is the same bug. Interestingly, like I said, the filter on Sender works fine for newly arriving messages. It just doesn't work on messages already in the inbox when running the filter manually. I don't have offline mode configured. -- Stan
