It does make sense to me. You filter from inbox to fldr. A message is
found that meets the criteria. So it must be moved to fldr. However,
since it is parked in inbox, it cannot be deleted from there. Thus, it
is copied isntead of parked.
Next time you re-filter, this message is met again in inbox, so it is
moved again - but not deleted, thus copied (again). It is the expected
behaviour IMHO.
What you ask for, is a condition: copy parked messages to destination
folder only if not already there. That's a wish.
