I should be able to save my mail filters so that I can reimport them or just copy the filter files to my moz profile directory... maybe a filers.dat Its a just a request... After I nuke a profile (reformat my computer, transfer a profile to another computer) I hate typing in all my filters again.

First of all, there is indeed a rules.dat for each mail account on disk in the server directory. Secondly, there is already a bug or two about request for import filters. *** This bug has been marked as a duplicate of 97724 ***

Marking verified as a duplicate.
