I couldn't find out where the log for "refilter" is, but I tried right
clicking  on  messages  and  "test filters". It looks like some of the
filters  that  should  not  actually  do  anything  somehow got set to
active. Setting them inactive seems to have fixed the problem.
I  _only_  have  "common  filters"  now.  I deleted all of them in the
individual  mail  accounts  and  added  a "catch all" as the very last
filter  in  "common  filters"  so nothing is turning up in the various
inboxes and anxyything not already filtered is in _one_ place.

Istill   don't   know  why  all  my "common filters", but only the
common filters, disappeared though, but fortunately I had a backup.

Sorry. But as I said in previous reply, I don't need to set the filter
to manual for re-filtering.

If   I  leave those common filters as active and "share with all", but
NOT  manual and I don't check "manual filters only",  then I see the messages 
getting trapped, but the actions
don't  get  performed  when I right click on that directory and select
"refilter"

If  I  set the filters to manual and select "use manual filters only",
then the filters work when I refilter that "not sorted" directory.

Maybe  I need a "catch-all" as the last of the common filters. Perhaps
there  is  something left over in the individual mail accounts. I will
try  deleting  every  filter  from  those individual accounts and hope
nothing still ends up in theire respective inboxes.

Common  filters is the logical place. I need the filters to work based
on  the content (headers) of the incoming mail and not which one of my
addresses it was sent to.

Setting  a  filter to 'manual', whether a common or account one, means
that it will ONLY be used when manually re-filtering, and not when new
mail arrives.

When  manually re-filtering, all the filters (common and account ones)
of  the  selected  type  (Incoming, etc.) will be used, UNLESS 'Manual
filters  only'  is  ticked. In this case, only filters set as 'manual'
will be used.

I  didn't  have any common filters, but for testing purposes I created
one  and  it  just  works.  No  need  to  set the filter to manual for
re-filtering.

Refilter only works if the filter is set to manual

2017-02-07 Thread Adrian Godfrey
For each of my email addresses, I only have two filters. An "incoming"
to  move everything to a "not sorted" directory and an outgoing one to
save sent messages in a top level directory outside the "account".

I  only  use  "common filters" for the actual filtering and that works
when new mail arrives.

All the "common filters" have "share with" set to "select all".

If  I  set  a  common filter to "manual" and refilter the "not sorted"
directory for manual filters only, it works.

What  do  I  need  to  do  to  make eefilter work on that "not sorted"
directory without having to change all the existing (and any new ones)
to manual in "common filters"?

Help,  About shows Version 7.4 (64-bit) and it is of course a paid for
version.  The  OS  is  Windows  10 Pro, but I remember having the same
issues with Windows 7 Ultimate and a 32-bit (also paid for) version 7 of The 
Bat.

I don't know whether it's Windows 10 or the 64-bit version, but all my
common   filters   disappeared  after  closing  The  Bat  properly and
rebooting my PC. I managed to recover them from a backup,
but  had  to  set  every one of them manually for the "share with" and
"select  all".  Thus  I  have  a lot of messages left over in the "not
sorted"  directory.  Strangely,  it  was  only the common filters that
disappeared.

Thanks in advance

Adrian
