Messages are not moved to local folder with rule when messages are read on server

[cyberzork]

@mryx

have a problem downloading messages and moving them to local folder. When messages are marked as read on the server, eM Client no longer recognizes them and the filters do not move these messages to the local folder

Yes you carnt automatically move a message with an incoming mail rule that’s already been read on the server. It has to be unread when it arrives.

See @Gary post in the following thread.

Rule: first read, then move

Unfortunately not. Rules only apply automatically to new messages as they arrive in the Inbox (or in some cases on outgoing messages when you click on Send). If you want to apply them later to messages that have already been received and read, you will need to apply them manually by right-click on any folder and choosing Apply Rule. Then choose the Rule(s) and folder(s) you want them to apply to.
