Filter for Emails

Hi there

I am running Thunderbird, latest version, with several eMail accounts. I like the use of filters for each eMail account, so I can save important emails to my local folders. It turns out that I have very similar if not equal filter settings for different email accounts moving my emails into the same folder: Example Newsletter emails from different accounts to the same local folder.

Would it be possible to create one filter that searches all email accounts to do things (i.e. moving, attaching tags) to those emails?

Second use case: while manually scanning/reading emails tagging them, later having a global filter to move tagged emails to desired/configured folder.

I'd appreciate an answer.

Cheers Michael

Filters are strictly per account and no method is offered to copy them from one account to another, despite duplicated generic functionality. Like "from bob move to folder emails from bob on local folders"

Could we get this in a new version of Thunderbird?
