Uff, more de-XBL joy. Are there any errors in the Error Console?

Alice, can you see where this broke?

Comment 2

I don't see anything related in the error console.

It works as expected for me.

Thanks for checking this, Alice.

I tried TB 70 beta 2 and I could edit an existing filter adding both a new rule (box above) and a new action (box below). What's going on?

Modifying the filter does indeed work in safe mode. I've nailed down the problem to the Enigmail add-on. With Enigmail disabled, there is no problem modifying the filter.

Thanks for the feedback. Yes, disabling add-ons should always be the first step. I'm using Enigmail on TB 68 and haven't seen an issue. But TB has changed the way those filter rules/actions are implemented and Enigmail messes in that area adding its own options.

Just for the record, I've raised a bug for Enigmail.
