Public bug reported:
Binary package hint: thunderbird
I have a filter which is supposed to look for the string "RSS sites
downloaded" at the beginning of the Subject line and move any matching
messages to a "reports" folder. This allows me to keep an archive of
all of the automatically generated reports for a job which runs every
night. Unfortunately, I just noticed that Thunderbird isn't just moving
messages whose subject starts with the target substring, but is also
silently moving messages which begin "Re: RSS sites downloaded"; so I've
been missing messages from my customers who are trying to send me
information about anomalies in the reports.
Ubuntu 7.10
Thunderbird 2.0.0.12+nobinonly-0ubuntu0.7.10.0
What I expected to happen:
The filter only processes message whose Subject starts with the string
"RSS sites downloaded"
What happened instead:
The filter silently moved other messages to the separate folder.
