Hi,

I wanted to try the inherited properties and to define a second of my IMAP-folders to have Thunderbird get the mails and use all defined filters for that IMAP account. (This new filter is not a child of Inbox). I also have set on the second folder that TB will check for new messages automatically.

Now my problem is the following:

When I start thunderbird all filters are processed on the normal Inbox but not on the second folder. When I now open the IMAP account and click on that second folder then the filters are processed on that folder too… and after it for that Thunderbird session it will process the filters automatically for any new message.

When I restart thunderbird it is the same again – it will not process the filters on the second-folder till I open that folder once …

Any idea what this can be and how to fix it?

PS: I tried mail.check_all_imap_folders_for_new true too without success

PS: In the meantime I re-enabled "mail.imap.use_status_for_biff" again because the other option caused double downloads, folder-locks and all such things … It was not funny to work with :-(
