It's a little thing, but there doesn't seem to be any way to save a copy of all incoming mail to a folder and mark the mail *in that folder* as read, automatically.

For example, my very first filter in the chain:
action="Copy to folder"
actionValue="imap://[e-mail]/ allmail"
condition="ALL"

This saves a copy of all incoming mail to " allmail" but there is no way to mark the saved copy as read.  If I add a rule "Mark As Read" that will apply to both the " allmail" copy (which I want) and the original (so all of my mail is marked as read).

Basically I just want a way to save a copy and not be notified about it.  One way this could be achieved is to add a rule like "Mark Copy As Read", which would be used after the copy.  Thanks.

Confirming as RFE
It would be possible to use a second filter for marking as read but that doesn't work because you can not filter based on the folder (bug 294632).

I did an implementation of this as a custom filter action in my FiltaQuilla extension - but for some reason that I no longer recall I only enable it for manual actions, not for normal automatic actions.
