I have a few custom headers defined (Message Filters -> Filter Rules ->
Customize Headers) for automatic mail filtering.

Example: Yahoo-Groups mails contain a header "Mailing-List". I use this to
filter them to a subfolder (using "contains" and the name of the list).

Such a filter works if you manually "Run Filters on Folder", but not for new mail.

This bug appeared first in 1.7.5 or 1.7.4, in my previously installed version
1.7.3 it worked like a charm.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Create a message filter rule with a custom header
2. Receive a mail that matches this filter

Actual Results:  
Message is not filtered.

Expected Results:  
Message is filtered.
