Now that explains some stuff.

So the filter needs only be active for the maildir resource the POP3 resources 
are downloading to?

I have seen this behavior, mails appear in inbox folder before getting 
filtered, but I never translated it into what I need to check as account.

I also wondered whether I would having it filtered twice if maildir *and* POP3 
resource was selected.

Another solution might be: Do not show POP3 accounts as filter target at all if 
there is no filtering taking place on that level.

I also wonder, what the mixed maildir resource would treat as new mails that 
trigger the filtering. I hope it won´t treat moved mails as new (in that 
folder).

I posted some questions about all of this before on my migration attempts, and 
I am happy to finally get some information about all of this.

Thanks,
