Why is a filter is being applied to folders other than Inbox?
Thunderbird 115.12.2 (64-bit) on Windows 11:
For some time I've had a simple filter that moves anything from a sender not in my address book to a "Limbo" folder. I can then review Limbo and re-file anything I want to keep.
This seemed to work well for a while. But recently, when Thunderbird syncs with the IMAP server, it re-downloads all the re-filed messages and apparently considers them new. The filter runs again, and despite nothing being in the Inbox everything I had re-filed ends up back in Limbo.
I don't know what to think:
- Did a Thunderbird update change its behavior?
- Did something change on the IMAP server I'm connecting to?
- Is this by design, and my filter setup should never have worked to begin with..?

It's probably the imap server. It's definitely not the filters.
