Filtering sent mail in KMail2

[Marko Vojinovic]

Hi folks! :-)

After the main KMail2 rants have passed, I guess it is my turn to report a 
problem... ;-)

After composing a new mail, I hit send, and after sending I expect the local 
copy of my message to be filtered into a relevant folder, as I configured it 
(before you ask --- yes, I did turn on the option "apply this filter to sent 
messages" in the filter settings).

But it doesn't happen, the message gets put and stays in the default sent-mail 
folder, instead of where I want it to go.

The filter itself is ok, since I can later go to sent-mail, select the message, 
choose "apply all filters" from the menu (or press ctrl-j), and then the filter 
works as expected, moving the message into the appropriate folder. So it does 
work on manual filtering, but not automatically after the message has been 
sent.

So as a workaround, after I finish writing all e-mails, I usually go to sent-
mail, select everything, apply all filters, and be done with it. But it is 
slowly starting to get on my nerves, since this is really something that 
should be done automatically (and was automatic in KMail1...).

Is anyone else seeing this?

I'd appreciate any advice/hints/info.

Btw, using up-to-date F16/KDE, and so far KMail2 works well for me, no other 
problems.

Best, :-)
Marko
