1) Create a Search Folder that matches everything:
Edit->Search Folders
Add
Call it Everything (for example)
Match All as search criterion
Decide whether you want all local and/or remote folders, or just some
Hit OK
2) Apply filters:
Go to the Everything folder
Select all messages (Ctrl-A)
Apply filters (Ctrl-Y)
This should work, but I haven't done it so caveat emptor.
