Want to hide the fact that you're using something like Gmail's Mail Fetcher to centralize messages from multiple accounts.

Have multiple accounts and don't want to have to worry about what folder is currently selected in the folder pane.

However, emails moved to folders (say by server filters) make the vulnerability show up - but this is less of an issue than when it occurs with the inbox.(Redirected from Mozilla Suite : FAQs : Mail Aliases) This article was written for Thunderbird but also generally applies to current versions of SeaMonkey.

It appears as if it succeeded but never actually did anything. No alerts, no errors, no warnings, nothing. So I run Tools->Run Filters on Folder and nothing happens. When I run thunderbird and get mail, new email is filtered. So my inbox contains messages that are normally filtered but haven't been. Sometimes my inbox has messages in it that need to be filtered because I travel and access email from other computers while my normal thunderbird isn't running.
