Re: [PLUG] Thunderbird filters

[Fred Stluka <fred@bristle.com>]

Art,

See the file:

   msgFilterRules.dat

in the Thunderbird Profile directory tree.  I currently have about 125
filters and no problems.   I have successfully edit it, as well as my
Thunderbird mail files with no problem.  Just close Thunderbird first
to avoid file contention issues.

Thunderbird has stopped saving *new* mail filters between sessions. 
Existing filters are still there.  New filters appear until restart.

Is there a maximum number of filters?
A corrupted filters file?
A way to manually edit the file where the filters are stored in order to
save them?
