Click on Tools->Message filters.

Is the "enabled" box checked on the affected filters?  You may have to
go into each non-checked filter and check that the settings under
"Perform these actions" are correct.  I have found that Tbird forgets
these if you move your mail folders around from outside the program and
if it finds the folder missing, it will disable the filter.
