Steps to reproduce:

On Mac, Yosemite, 10.10.5, I updated Thunderbird, unfortunately, to 38.7.2.  All filters disappeared.  I added back a couple of simple filters, like, if message starts with XYZ, move to IMAP folder PDQ.  I then tried to run those filters manually.


Actual results:

The filters disappeared after the upgrade.  Then after adding the back, and running, nothing happens. The messages are not moved at all.


Expected results:

The messages should have been moved.

Does it happen with newer version 45?

No it doesn't. And to be fair I feel a bit stupid. When reentering them I used the From when I should have used To.  I think it is working now. I'll check Monday to make sure.

I'm going to put it back to Unconfirmed because doing the upgrade did eat my filters. That part is a bug.
