Open Thunderbird Preferences/Display/Advanced -
There should be a time setting under the Reading heading or an automatic setting for when the message is displayed.

But his question is about a filter action. This setting should not come into it until the message is displayed, like any other message.

@makaiguy - thought maybe he missed the global preference setting,
Didn't necessarily understand filter and mistook the global setting as filter.
On reflection could the filter be confusing the setting since they are similar/same?

Right-click the destination folder and select Properties | Repair folders.

First backup your profile -- http://kb.mozillazine.org/Profile_backup
Close Thunderbird and navigate to your Profile Folder ( http://kb.mozillazine.org/Profile_Folder ). Find the file named Inbox with the extension msf, (that is, Inbox.msf.) Note that there will be two files with the name but only one of these will have the MSF extension. Delete the file with the MSF extension. Restart Thunderbird, compact all folders, and see if things are back to normal. Note that the MSF files do NOT contain your messages. They are, for lack of a better term, an index file and will be recreated by Thunderbird as required.
