I'd like to be able to check, which filters put mails in a particular folder. 

There could be a context menu entry for each folder, that shows those filters that put mail in that folder.

There is a log of how the filters are applied to a message, does that resolve your wish?

No, it doesn't, because if there's a filter that hasn't filtered any mails 
yet, this filter isn't shown. Also one would have to look through the 
whole log to find out, whether there's a filter for a folder.

IMHO a more general solution would be an "incremental search" lineedit
in the filter dialog. Would help finding which filter goes to a specific folder,
but also which filter reacts on a given word, or a given list-id, etc.

David's suggestion is IMO the best solution.

Thank you for your feature request. Kmail1 is currently unmaintained so we are closing all wishes. Please feel free to reopen a feature request for Kmail2 if it has not already been implemented.
Thank you for your understanding.

Instead of creating a new feature request, please confirm here if the wishlist is still valid for kmail2.
