Sorry for not noticing this function :) Indeed this addresses exactly our 
problem.

I had a look at the code and confirmed it with debug output.
The only place where tryToFilterInboxOnStartup is called is the ctor of the 
FilterManager. At this time the filters are not read from the config because 
FilterManager::ReadConfig() is not called in the ctor. So the filters are always 
empty and the tryToFilterInboxOnStartup returns immediately.

I think this is pretty straightforward to fix but I would rather leave 
implementing this fix to you. When i tried to use readConfig in the ctor i had a 
segmentation fault. But since tryToFilterInboxOnStartup i cannot call it from 
the kmkernel after the FilterManager object is constructed.

My solution would be to make it a public function "tryToFilterInbox" and call 
it from the kmkernel. Do you have a better idea?

Regards,
Andre
