Status: RESOLVED EXPIRED

(MailNews Core :: Filters, defect)

Deleted addressbook entries are used by (news) filters of type 'Sender in
addressbook'.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1.Setup a filter of type 'Sender is in addressbook'.
2.Put someone in that "killfile" addressbook.
3.When you receive a message from that person, the filter triggers some action.
4.Delete that someone from the "killfile".
5.Receive a message from that person again.

Actual Results:  
The filter still fires on the message from that person.

Expected Results:  
The filter should not fire, as the person was deleted from the appropriate
addressbook.

Only tested this with news filters, with action 'label message'. I have a
separate addressbook named "Killfile" for all my news filters.
Checked the filter log, an entry for a message from the deleted person is there,
although I deleted him from my Killfile some time ago...
