I created a test case. I send 100 messages with a delay of to seconds to my
account.

for ((i=0; i<100 ; i++)) ; do echo "Test #`printf %4.4d $i`" | mail -s "Filter
Test #`printf %4.4d $i`" thomas ; sleep 2 ; done

I created two filters. One to add a header field with a time stamp and one to
move incoming messages to a folder named "Test".

Three messages 0056, 0053, 0003 where not filtered. Some messages showed up
several times in the Test folder (#0038). Some were filtered more than once
(#0038 3 times) and showed multiple times in the list. See mbox attached.

Some messages were missing in the inbox and the folder "Test" (#0096 .. #0099)
but appeared 
later. Some duplicates (see #0038) were later cone and only three stayed in the
folder "Test". 

Maybe this is a bug and not a feature. If it's a feature I don't need it.
Please switch it off!
