Considering the current state of KMail filters (won't auto filter, crashes on manual filtering), I've found that the half reasonable way to process hundreds of messages through the filters, is to do the following:

Start processing some messages (Ctrl-J), so that you can click on the up arrow next to the download progress bar at the bottom right corner.

Then, hit Ctrl-J once each time you see it transition to showing either zero or one thread boxes.  You don't have to wait until it stabilizes to zero or one thread boxes.  Just wait until it transitions to zero or one thread boxes.

That way, you can manage to process one or two hundred messages before KMail crashes.

Otherwise if you do it any other way, you can expect it to crash typically after processing less than a dozen messages.
