Great plugin

A question: the message filters (tools > message filters) are not backup up it seems. Would it be possible to include this in the functionality? I've got heaps of them and would not want to loose them.

Are you referring to a TEBE full profile backup? If so, I'll have to look into where the filters are stored.

Hi Chuck,

Thanks for the info. Would it be possible to let me know where the filters are stored and how I could back them up manually if you know?

Thanks!

Now I can backup filters with this add-on yay! Maybe you can add the functionality to FEBE as well

Yes ... that extension seems to be handy. For future reference, you can use FEBE (or TEBE perhaps) to backup the message filters file. It is located in your Tb in the "Mail/(account)" subfolder and is called msgFilterRules.dat.

For example, mine is located in: C:\Users\CBaker\AppData\Roaming\Thunderbird\Profiles\habf3icf.default\Mail\mail.customsoftwareconsult.com
