Most likely the location is the same as in SeaMonkey, where there is one filter
file per account, which is by default, thus:
/home/username/.mozilla/profilename<salt>/Mail/smtp-name/msgFilterRules.dat
I believe in TB the default may be:
/home/username/.thunderbird/profilename<salt>/Mail/smtp-name/msgFilterRules.dat
Mozilla profiles located in other locations are supported. They need not be
anywhere in /home/ if properly configured and permissioned.
