evolution does not apply filters

[Alain Perry]

Package: evolution
Version: 2.1.4-0ubuntu2
Severity: normal

This is not a duplicate of #4110.
For some time now, evolution (hoary version) has stopped applying
filters to incoming mail, but worse, I can't even manually apply
filters. I tried recreating the filters from the messages (I'm filtering
on the X-Mailing-List header), but it still doesn't work.

Let me know if you need anymore details.

Thanks.
