When moving mail to IMAP folder, filters cannot be created.

[RealRaven2000]

instead you may get an error message - 'Tried to Create a filter 7 times but it didnt work'.

This is caused by asynchronous copying and the target folder not having synchronized. It can be fixed, but I need to rewrite the calling function QuickFolders.Util.moveMessages() and make it asynchronous, add some folder listeners (one for each message being moved) and catch the "arriving" mails to hand back a completely new list of message headers to the calling function.

It's complicated but not impossible. Hoping to get some help from @jobisoft !

Below is a test version with an asynchronous moveMessages() function. This should now wait until IMAP has move the emails successfully, and only then trigger the filter assistant.

QuickFolders-mx-5.12.2pre45.zip

As always, to install this prerelease, download the zip file and then drag it into Thunderbird Add-ons Manager (do not extract the contents to install)
