I have been having a problem where the destination folder in my mail
filters get changed. If I have a list of filters, and for example, the
destination folder is dest_folder_xx1, then the symptom is that
dest_folder_xx1 gets placed as the destination filter in ALL filters
following that first one in the list. I have about 100 filters, and this
has happened 3 times. Twice in the last 24 hours.

I have been doing a lot of filter management, moving and renaming mail
folders, etc.

Any idea on the pathology?

This was first reported here in April (see quoted message below). Since you're still running v. 2.8, upgrading to the current version 2.9.1 should take care of it.

I guess you're seeing bug 735940. TB spun a 11.0.1 release including a
fix for that, we didn't (and AFAIK we're not planning to do so, but
would probably include it if we had to do an oilspill release with
security fixes for 2.8). It'll be fixed in 2.9, though.
