I have Thunderbird working just like I like it! However, I have about 150 message filters that I use and they all work perfectly. My issue is that I have lots of emails that are being sent to the trash and I do want them to go to the trash, but I have so many message filters that I do not know WHICH message filter is being use to send blocks of emails to the trash! My QUESTION is "How can I determine which of my 150 message filters is being used to send messages from a particular sender to the trash? Is there a search that can be run to find which message filter was used to move a message? Thank You.
