It would be nice if that folder (the currently opened folder) was already selected. Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: Actual Results: go to any other folder than the Inbox. Open "Tools" -> "Message Filters". When you want to test a filter on the current folder, you first have to select it in the dropdown. Expected Results: Pre-select the currently opened folder.

Statistically, we have found that bug reports that have not been confirmed by a second user after three months are highly unlikely to be the source of a fix to the code. While your input is very important to us, our resources are limited and so we are asking for your help in focussing our efforts. If you can still reproduce this problem in the latest version of the product (see below for how to obtain a copy) or, for feature requests, if it's not present in the latest version and you still believe we should implement it, please visit the URL of this bug (given at the top of this mail) and add a comment to that effect, giving more reproduction information if you have it. If it is not a problem any longer, you need take no action. If this bug is not changed in any way in the next two weeks, it will be automatically resolved. Thank you for your help in this matter.

Actually, this RFE still holds. Any chance on confirming?

Preselect current folder used to be implemented in TB2; it have been dropped from TB3. Please re-introduce it !!! I want this feature BACK.

(In reply to comment #3) > Preselect current folder used to be implemented in TB2; it have been dropped > from TB3. This feature isn't present in TB2, unless you had an addon that did this.

For the last years, I don't know for how long exactly, thunderbird has pre-selected the folder automatically for me, as far as I understood it selected the folder the currently selected mail is in. This worked pretty well and I always never had to change the selection. Yesterday I updated from thunderbird 38.5.0 to 38.7.0 and got the behaviour described here: The field is empty and I _have_ to select anything before being able to run the filter(s). This might seem to be a minute detail, but it really is one additional click multiple times a day for no appearent reason. I think before I want to second this 'bug', I want to know what the actual implementation is/does, what of it is configurable and what the logic behind not selecting anything is.

You're probably doing something different than you used to, or are talking about a different bug, since this bug was filed 12 years ago, long before TB version 38.x was even a twinkle in the developer's eyes.
