Yes, you can use a filter that is shared across accounts to filter into a folder in an account that is appropriate for that sender. This way, if you reply, you already reply from the appropriate account. There is no need to filter into a common Inbox. > I filter _everything_ out of those separate account inboxes into > proper "folders" using common filters Then you should not have a problem - unless you mix everything into a common Inbox, which was the problem reported. > and a catch-all "move to notsorted" (another "common folder") in > each account for anything I might have missed. Why? I leave those messages just in the account they arrived at. If there is a reason to have them (automatically) moved to another account, I'll create a filter for that. Creating a filter to move them to a common Inbox does not seem to be logical to me - you will still have to assign an account to send from when you reply, so it's double handling aqnd inefficient. > Anyway the immediate problem is solved.
