Lost all my message filters using Earlybird Aurora 11.0a2 (2011-12-26)

1. create some message filters (most were matching To/CC or a word
   in the Subject, with an action to move it to a specific folder)
2. delete (move to Trash) one of the target folders -
   a dialog came up saying "there's a filter with that folder as the
   target" (or some such).  I clicked OK.
3. after a while I started seeing messages in the Inbox which should
   have been filtered into *other* folders... so I opened "Tools->Message
   Filters" and saw that some filters had been disabled.
4. I enabled them again by clicking their checkboxes
5. after while it happened again... I enabled them again and then
   restarted the application
6. after restarting "Tools->Message Filters" have an empty filter list :-(
