Details

User Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows NT 6.1; WOW64) AppleWebKit/535.7 (KHTML, like Gecko) Chrome/16.0.912.75 Safari/535.7

Steps to reproduce:

Added the following filter through the UI:
name="To contains: \"\\"S12-80321\\":;\""
enabled="yes"
type="17"
action="Move to folder"
actionValue="imap://<foldername>"
condition="AND (to,contains,\"\\"\\\"S12-80321\\\":;\\"\")"


Actual results:

After next restart of Thunderbird, I git a notification that the filterrs could not be read. A backup of the file was created and a new empty filters file was generated.


Expected results:

Thunderbird should be able to read the rule that it created and not ignore my rules file.
