Hello Jonas, Thank you for submitting this bug and reporting a problem with Thunderbird.
You made this bug report in 2010 and there have been several versions of Ubuntu and Thunderbird since then. Could you confirm that this is no longer a problem and that we can close the ticket? Or, if it is still a problem, could you run the following (only once): apport-collect 503317 and upload the updated logs and and any other logs that are relevant for this particular issue. Thank you again for helping make Ubuntu and Thunderbird better.

You would expect Thunderbird to load the message filter rules from the profile's msgFilterRules.dat file. 4) After Thunderbird restarts it shows an error dialog saying the message filter rules file could not be read.
