Hi,

I've an issue with my filters in Thunderbird (v.38.7.0).

My filters were perfectly working for years but don't anymore. Actually, they still work for new incoming emails, but I can't run them manually on existent emails. Some pictures to explain it better: - one of my filter rule: https://lut.im/GI0EHEMmXs/gY5eNnbRoPpLQSY5.png - but despite the destination folder is specified ("repondeur" in that example), it's forgotten in the main menu: https://lut.im/RlKTXQWm7f/khIdUTrp5MOdvC2j.png The Apply (Exécuter in French) button is grey, and the destination folder not specified. And if I do choose the right destination folder for that filter rule, it appears to be applied for *all* filter rules, even if their own rule mention another destination folder. My filter rule extracted from msgFilterRules.dat: https://framabin.org/?e25dfcf5556afa29#S/VI524zrufq4/Hl2+jaxtfAx2BicglW7IZcjSKBJDc=

Could you please tell me how to solve it? :)

You need to set the folder the rule/filter is to apply to at the bottom of that screen. Every time you execute a filter manually. Automatic filter only apply to the inbox, manually you cab apply them to any folder.
