I have a message filter (misc vendors) takes up so much room on the screen, I can't find a way to scroll down to the bottom of the message filter edit window to click "OK" I am having to create new message filters that send the latest "misc vendors" to the same folder the existing misc vendors rule sends messages to . . How can I fix this, or is this now a bug???

Have you considered setting up a specific address book for your "misc Vendors" and using that address book as the filter criteria?

There is a bug that was supposedly fixed in 78.1 https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1633306

I have commented that I do not think it is fixed. I suppose we will see if penglab can offer direction.

Hi Matt, thanks for chiming in . . I found a fix that works for me: Tbird 78.6.0: Tools; Message filters; Double click, and open a too long filter, in my case: "MISC VENDORS"; r-click "MISC VENDORS" filter window near top of window; click "size"; move cursor to white top of window; L click/hold, slide down to shrink top of window; the window should now be small enough to scroll down to click "OK" button

I am clueless to know if this would've worked before I upgraded to 78.6.0
