Problem with filtering

I have address psych at fire and a folder 'psych' but emails addressed to this are going into my inbox.

Hi Sarf,

first of all: you shouldn't post neither your full email address nor your domain name here, so maybe you want to edit your initial post.

So, let's go for your problem. Folder matching will only work on plus addresses or on subdomain addresses. As your email mentioned above is an alias address, you'll have to set the delivery address for this alias to:
[username]+psych@fastmail.com

[username] here is your FastMail login name and, of course, if you're using another domain than fastmail.com, then adjust this accordingly. The delivery address can be set in your alias settings. Don't forget to remove the currently set delivery address, otherwise you'll get your mails twice.

Cheers,
Michael

I have alias set as *@fire . A check found that for some reason fastmail had switched the parent folder from 'psych' to 'inbox'. Fixed this.Mail now filtering ok.
