One or maybe more of my t-bird msg filters has gotten the path to

so apparently that filter is sending msgs from a good friend to
/dev/null.  This is not at all nice.

How to fix, I can't find it in any of the config options.

Thanks all for any help. In the meantime I'll nuke the malformed filter
Would it not be better to move it, and examine it at leisure.
I'm not a t-bird expert, how would I go about that?

Removing the offending filters does leave those msgs in the inbox.
So its all local to t-bird. It would be fixable in the filter edit mode IF that line was editable
once created, but its not.

And thanks David for the hint about scroll bars, it was off.

I am having trouble with T-bird also (102.3.0 32 bit).  The address
book is no longer on the normal message page but is now under tools.
However, it does not scroll.  Furthermore the hiding scroll bar on
T-bird and Firefox is really annoying.  Something that isn't broken
should not be "fixed".
I don't use Tbird. In FF, have you tried Alt-E, N, scroll down, and
check the box: Always show scrollbars. (That's Edit→Preferences.)

(The one annoyance with hiding scrollbars is when googling images:
the right-hand panel's scrollbar gets hidden under the main one's.)

Cheers,
David.
