Filter emails from IMAP sub folder

[christellehahn]

Hi,
on my email providers server I want to filter all various newsletters to be moved to a folder named "Newsletter", to only have personal emails in the Inbox. This works fine so far when I set up appropriate filters on the providers server.
In a second step in Thunderbird I want to filter these newsletters according there origin to be moved from this "Newsletter" folder to separate local folders in Thunderbird.
How can I do this?

You will have to set up filters to do that and those filers will have to be manually run. http://kb.mozillazine.org/Junk_Mail_Controls Thunderbird's automatic filters will only act on messages being newly received to the Ibox folder itself.
