you know, I thought that too and just tried it out but it did not work - but oddly enough FILTERS are all greyed out when it comes to IMAP folders and messages in such folders. hmmm..
out of curiosity - why exactly would one use IMAP if one anyhow wants to make local copies and why not just use POP (and e.g. leave messages on server for xy days as backup next to local backups) ? ---marlyse ------------ former message(s) quotes: ------------- >Rishikesh Mulgaonkar wrote: > >>Now is it possible to create Applescripts so that every mail in my IMAP >>account goes to a specific local folder. >Why an Apple script?
