Rated 2 out of 5 stars

If it would work properly, I would have rated it a 5 stars but it has issues. I am running Windows 8.1, Thunderbird 24.4.0, and dual monitor -- I have tired it without any other add-on running with the same results. Here are the issues:

1) sometimes not all the the time but some times it causes the whole button bar with "Reply Reply To All Forward" etc... to be move over the From line. Hover the mouse pointer over the "bar" causes it to move back to the right hand side of the window.

2) The button right now should be only matching one filter but it has 3 filters. And if I run one the "bad" filters it moves the message to what ever that filter says even though it isn't correct.

3) It shows that there are filters for messages that doesn't have a filter.

There are no errors in the "Error Console." I do however have screen captures to show what I am talking about.

Thanks,
George

I have multiple accounts setup (7 accounts.) My Primary account has over 560 filters in place with about 900 private folders and I don't know how many public folders -- this account points to an IMAP4 server with about 1 TB of space for me and a couple of others. All the others are either IMAP4 or POP3 accounts that have filters pointing to folders on the Primary Account and at least one of those accounts has over 250 filters.

With a clean profile with about 20 filters in place and only one account, I don't have the issue with multiple filters and incorrect filters. I did try to copy the msgFilterRules.dat over to the new profile, as I was using the same primary account, and had the same results with multiple filters showing up. I do have ever have the issue of the whole button bar being moved over the subject. I have discovered that this happens when I have had Thunderbird up and running for a very long period.
