that turns out not to be the case. I've tried creating a filter that moves mails to one of my local folders, and I can both apply the filter and make it work on new emails. Since I can both move mails between IMAP folders, *and* apply filters to IMAP folders, I think I should be able to combine the two and have filters that moves mails between IMAP folders, right? /mailund -- "Natives who beat drums to drive off evil spirits are objects of scorn to smart Americans who blow horns to break up traffic jams."
