Hi there, I belong to a squash club which e-mails me confirmation of my court bookings. These mails go to my spam box. I've created a filter to move them to my inbox, but it doesn't work. (I've created other filters and they work fine.) WHat is strange is that the 'To' address on all of my other e-mails is my address - m535i@btinternet.com, but for these ones it is to admin@hamptonssl.co.uk, where I guess it is somehow being redirected to my address.

The following is from one of these e-mails.

From - beactive@activitypro.co.uk

To - admin@hamptonssl.co.uk

Subject - Booking Confirmation

2 questions really, what is happening here, and why doesn't my filter work? (I've attached a pic of the filter, and one of the e-mail)

Thanks for your time. Steve

The reason you don't appear in 'To:' is probably that you (together with other recipients you cannot see either) are being put in 'Bcc:'. And the reason you cannot stop those messages from being sent to the Spam folder could be that the server, not Thunderbird, is doing that. And then, the latter could be related to the former…

Those messages aren't being marked as junk by Thunderbird, are they? They don't seem to have the banner saying "Thunderbird thinks this message is junk mail"… So it's probably the spam filter at the server, not Thunderbird, what's moving them there before Thunderbird gets to see them.
