One mechanism behind all of them
Findest checks the mailbox you connect every five minutes, reads each attachment that arrives, and compares it against every rule you have written — in a single request, so the rules are weighed against each other rather than one at a time. The winner decides the folder; if nothing fits, the document is left alone and History says why.
The rules themselves are sentences. There are no keyword fields, no sender lists and no condition builder, because the version of Findest that had them filed a software invoice into an electricity folder — the story is on the filters page.
