User-Agent:       Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.0; en-US; rv:1.3b) Gecko/20021229
Build Identifier: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.0; en-US; rv:1.3b) Gecko/20021229

Filtered messages appear twice since mozilla-win32-installer-sea.exe
version 1.3b 2002/12/22.
When deactivating filtering, messages arrive only once in my IMAP inbox. 

One of my filters:
version="8"
logging="yes"
name="Genealog2"
enabled="yes"
type="1"
action="Move to folder"
actionValue="mailbox://nobody@Local%20Folders/Privat"
condition="AND (from,contains,RootsWeb)"

Here a part from my filter log:
<p>
Applied filter &quot;Genealog2&quot; to message from [e-mail] -
BK-D Digest V02 #348 at 12/30/2002 05:00 AM
Action = Move to folder mailbox://nobody@Local%20Folders/Privat
 id = [e-mail]
</p>

Applied filter &quot;Genealog2&quot; to message from [e-mail] -
BK-D Digest V02 #348 at 12/30/2002 05:00 AM
Action = Move to folder mailbox://nobody@Local%20Folders/Privat
 id = [e-mail]
</p> 


Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Define a message filter and activate it (see details above)
2. Make sure that a message arrives in the IMAP inbox where the filter applies
3. Look into the destination folder and in the filter log.

Actual Results:  
The filtered messages appear twice (with identical message ID)
in the destination folder.

Expected Results:  
Messages should appear only once in the destination folder.

I just verified the content of my directory

               3 Verzeichnis(se),   1.071.206.400 Bytes frei

There are some older rules files with different names.
When I leave only msgFilterRules.dat and remove rules.dat
and rules-8-SPAM.dat then the message filter is working
properly.

Bug seams to be a bit more complicated, but now I can reproduce the error and I
know how to circumvent it.

When I start Mozilla mail and use "Read messages" from the imap accounts main page,
then all filtered messages ("move to folder") appear twice in the destination
folder.

When I start Mozilla mail and use the "Get Msgs" button (from the toolbars section)
instead, then filtering works o.k.

(this information replaces my "Additional Comment #1, the old rules files were not
the true reason for the erraneous behavior).
