I recall creating a message rule to make copies of received messages,

clutter. Perhaps I should re-implement the rule, and clean the folder
periodically -- say, once a week delete everything older than one week.
That would save me if the bug occurs in the Inbox folder (the most
common use-case).
In my primary incoming account dpchr...@holgerdanske.com, I created a
folder "Inbox_log" and a Message Filter rule "Inbox_log":
Apply filter when:
Manually Run
Getting new mail: Filter after Junk Classification
Match all meesages
Perform these actions:
Copy Message to Inbox_log on dpchr...@holgerdanske.com
The rule is ordered after SpamAssassinYes and my manual blacklist, and
before rules that move mailing list incoming messages into mailing list
folders (debian-u...@lists.debian.com, etc.).
When a new message comes in that is not from a mailing list, the
Inbox_log rule seems to work.
When a new message comes in that is from a mailing list, Thunderbird
goes into an infinite loop putting copies of the message into the
mailing list folder. I needed to disable the rule to break the loop.
