Use "Settings" -> "Configure Filters...".

For the filter you create/modify, look on the "Advanced" tab.  You'll want 
to make sure and clear the "Apply this filter to incoming messages:", "Apply 
this filter to sent messages", and "Apply this filter on manual filtering" 
checkboxes.  You'll want to mark the "Add this filter to the Apply Filter 
menu" and "Additionally, add this filter to the toolbar" checkboxes.  You 
might want to mark the "If this filter matches, stop processing here" 
checkbox.  You might want to assign a keyboard shortcut or icon or both.

My HAM/SPAM filters have no criteria with a couple of actions and they seem 
to work well.
