I have set up some 30 message filters. When I have read my mail I wish to click on one button that will initiate my message filters to clear my in-box. How?

There is a Run Active Filters button provided by this add-on:

Thanks finitarry, but the versions don't match. It is, however, the button I was looking for

Thanks sfhowes, but I wanted to run filters already created rather than create filters. However, I did find Folder Filters which is exactly what I was looking for.
