Hi,
that's not so easy. The restriction on the folder prevents the message
list to know about all the thread messages, and there is no easy way to
rebuild the view with "all my previous filtering + thread of currently
selected message". Also note that once you get the message no longer
satisfying filter then you'll lose it from the view when regenerating
it.

Evolution does that, and it's fixed already, there was a problem with
folder not being created, thus the state saving failed. See [1] for more
information.
