That has been reported in bug 1367438, but no one has been able to work out what causes it. It works on a new profile.

Reporter, see bug 1367438 comment 27. can you reproduce the error code?

So I enabled the log and have restarted and retrieved mail several times, but nothing happens.  No error.  Some of my filters work, but many are just not applied at all unless run manually.  I've tried switching them to manual and back with no results.  They just don't run unless run manually.  When run manually, they work fine.  No errors.

Lemme try recreating one from scratch.

I'm just boggled because these filters are very old, and I don't fiddle with them.  Only change was an update.

Reporter seems to be gone. Duping to bug 1367438 rather than closing incomplete
