Hi, I got multiple mail accounts in my TB client. I also created filter rules, but now there are some rules I wanna apply to *all* configured mailboxes. In the rule creation window however, I must select an account.

Is there a way to make (some) rules apply on all mail accounts ?? (and if yes how) Thnx! /Ton

Filters are per account. That is how they are structured and stored. Therefore there is no _ALL_ accounts category.

I do get a "sort of" as I use POP extensively and place incoming pop mail in the global inbox in local folders, not individual account inbox folders. Any account placing mail in local folders using pop goes under the "local folders" account so I have filters on local folders that apply to more than one email address.
