Well Frank, then someone really screwed up. Rules used to apply to both POP
and IMAP accounts in OE. They also apply in Thunderbird. I was
contemplating switching to WM just recently as Thunderbird seems to have a
problem sending on my IMAP account but if I can't filter incoming IMAP email
into folders based on rules then it's worthless.
So for now I stay with Thunderbird. First Vista and now this? I run Ubuntu
Linux on my other machine and it works great.
Mykas0 - suggest you check out (free) Thunderbird. You can do what you want
to do with it.
