Hi all,

Since the last update of Thunderbird to 38.6, the button ‘Run Now’ of the ‘Mail Filters’ option is no longer effective and appears always grayed in my CentOS 7… Anybody has the same behavior ?

  • running on CentOS 6 – I have T/B 38.6 also and under the menu item Message Filters >
    have three options
    – Message Filters
    – Run Filters on Folder
    – Run Filter on Message none are greyed out and they appear to function as advertised.

  • Did you had the chance to verify what is the selection of the
    “run selected fukter(s) on:”
    if it states “choose a folder” then it’s a good reason to not be able to use the “run now”.

    It’s a degradation from my point of view.

  • Pick “Message Filters” from the above choices. Its the “Run Now” button that is newly grayed out. IIUC

  • I see that, as soon as I select a mailbox folder from the select box to the left of the Run Now button it changes and I can run the filter.
