I keep getting a "the folder could not be found"

Ever since I updated to 102.x I keep getting a "folder could not be found error" TB disables the filter and remove the folder form the filter actions. I immediately add the folder back to the search actions and reactivate the filter and it runs just fine. This occurs almost every day with different folders. It appears to only occur on the first launch of the day.

The error code in the filter log is 0x80550009

I'm using TB 102.4.1, it occurs on an IMAP account, the folders are used the 2 saved searches and a filter, the folders are set to synchronize, and the compact all folders when it will save over ___ is enabled. Although I don't have any evidence to support this, I believe that the searches, filters, and/or automatic compacting of folders are somehow interfering with each other.

I will have to wait until it happens again. For awhile it was occurring on the first launch of every day. Maybe the issue was resolved now that I am using TB 102.4.2.

Yes, the folder action was blanked out. Apparently TB encountered a filter error, blanked out the folder action on the filter, then reported "the folder could not be found" error.
