I can confirm, and I am marking it as triaged. I noticed it some time ago on trunk, but never really paid attention until Jared sent an email to evolution-list.

So, at least it affects 2.24.2 onwards.

Jared's explanation is pretty much it: set a filter targeting an IMAP folder (action "move to folder"). Save it. Look at the ./evolution/mail/filters.xml, and the newly-created filter has a target URI pointing to local@local, instead of the correct IMAP account.

You can find the correct IMAP account by running on a terminal:

 gconftool-2 -g /apps/evolution/mail/accounts

Or (if you do not want to browse through all of the output, this:

 gconftool-2 -g /apps/evolution/mail/accounts | awk -F '=' '{print $2 $3}'
