            Bug ID: 299589
          Severity: normal
           Version: 4.8.2
          Priority: NOR
          Assignee: kdepim-bugs at kde.org
           Summary: Some filters don't filter incoming messages
                    automatically, only after manually applying all
                    filters
    Classification: Unclassified
                OS: Linux
          Reporter: marcus at harrisonland.co.uk
          Hardware: Other
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
         Component: filtering
           Product: kmail2

Some filters - in particular those that check the List-Id element - don't
filter automatically on incoming mail. Manually filtering the mail in your
inbox after they have been downloaded results in the mail being correctly
filtered.

This is with IMAP accounts, no other types of account were tested. 

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Subscribe to a mailing list
2. Create a filter rule by right-clicking on a mailing-list message and
clicking Create Filter --> Filter on Mailing List, or by creating one that
checks the List-Id element manually, and make the filter e.g. add a tag to the
messages, send them to a new folder or some other way to show that the message
has been filtered
3. Wait on new messages from the mailing list
Actual Results:  
The messages from the mailing list e.g. remain in your inbox, remain untagged,
or otherwise remain unaltered after the filter should have run

Expected Results:  
The messages are filtered and the correct changes are applied to them
