I applied a filter in the Quick Filter toolbar while viewing Inbox. Then I hit "x" on the results, at which point my Inbox view was showing 0 msgs. Now I can't undo the filter. The only way I can view messages is to apply another filter !! To view all my messages I just use my last name as the filter. But then if I clear the filter window, again EMPTY messages window. All messages received since this activity, of course, are visible.

There doesn't seem to be a "clear all filters" function. Checked Tools->Message Filters as well. How do I shut it off ?

Thanks
