Using aug06 commercial trunk build, win98 (assume other platforms are same) Side effect of fix for bug 41720 If I delete a folder which is not involed in any filters for any account in the profile, when I empty the trash the alert for fix for bug 41720 will be triggered. I would expect that we actually check and make sure the folder is affected by some filter, it is alarming to get an alert where it is not warranted. 1. Open a profile (I used IMAP) having only one IMAP account, no other mail accounts. Said profile has no filters. 2. Delete a folder on this account. 3. Empty the trash. Result: an alert pops up telling you "Filters affecting <folder name> have been disabled." Expected: No alert. I did not have any filters, hence the folder could not have been affected by filters. (Note: this should also apply even if there were indeed filters but none involving the said deleted folder.)

Alert now happens only if the folder was actually named as a filter destination. OK POP, OK IMAP. OK using aug09 commercial trunk builds: win98, linux rh6.2 and mac OS 9.0
