Is There a Way to Automatically Run Filters on the Sent Folder?

I sort messages into folders using filters. Each folder has its own address book of people whose messages go to that folder.

But if I send a message from my phone, it goes to the Sent folder and stays there.

Is there a way to automatically run filters on a folder (Sent) when TB starts up? Or even better, also run it when TB refreshes after a hiatus - for example, when TB stays open when the PC goes to sleep and wakes up again.

Only on sending in the sent folder. But sending a mail that is to be filtered should trigger filtering for everything in the folder against all relevant filters in the account.
