I think what you are trying to do is a bit complicated and/or
convoluted, if I may say so.

I am assuming you are using Incoming filters to sort incoming messages
to different folders, right? If my assumption is correct (and only if
my assumption is correct), then there are at least 2 simpler methods
to achieve what you want: that replies are sorted to the same folder
of the message you are replying to.

Let's take one example to illustrate them. Let's assume you are
filtering incoming messages from "Joe Blow" ([EMAIL PROTECTED], Sender,
Yes) to folder "Joe", and now you want that your replies to Joe go
into the same folder.

  Method 1:
  - Create a "matching" Outgoing filter with: [EMAIL PROTECTED], Recipient,
  Yes.

  Method 2:
  2.1 - In your "Joe Blow" Incoming filter add an Alternative:
  [EMAIL PROTECTED], Recipient, Yes.
  2.2 - Modify your Reply Template(s) to BCC yourself.

Method 2 is better if you are filtering, for example, on Subject. Then
you don't need 2.1, just 2.2.

Again, this is assuming you are using Incoming filters to sort
incoming mail to the different folders. If your are sorting incoming
messages manually...

I personally use a different approach: messages that I have to reply
to are sorted to a unique folder "Must Reply" and then, when I reply
to a message, both the 'replied to' and the 'reply' are sorted to the
same folder.
