With thunderbird & Gmail POP, things are very easy. I can create filter that will automatically move the mail to the appropriate sub-folder. However, with evolution & Gmail IMAP, I find things very messy. I cannot figure out how to create filter that will automatically move my email to a sub folder. Please advice. Thanks
