For reasons that are unimportant yes, that's exactly what I did.  As I
said, it's not tragic that the filters are gone but it's disturbing.
Might be unrelated, but I wasn't surprised when Paul White indicated
he'd lost filter edits.

Don't quite get it.

You go into the Sorting Office, hit "New Filter" and leave?

So, you didn't actually create a new filter but just an empty shell
called "New Filter"?

I've had a lot of problems with filters this weekend. What I've
experienced may be related to what you have seen. I've edited many filters
and closed the dialog. On the next editing session they've reverted to
their original state. It appears that I have to click on another filter
before the first one changes permanently especially when moving from one
account to another. Just clicking 'OK' isn't always enough to make the
changes sticky.

May be the common problem is that the disk files are not being fully
updated at the right time and a program close and restart reverts the
filters to their previous state?

Unedited filters disappear on TB! restart

2004-10-17 Thread George Mitchell
Hi all,

Create a new filter, but don't edit it in any way.  Close and reopen
the Sorting Office and it's still there.  Close and restart TB!, open
the Sorting Office and it's gone.

You could argue "no harm no foul" since any edit will cause it to
persist, but it's disconcerting to have stuff just disappear.  It
contributed to my initial unease with the NFS.
