Hello MFPA,

M Which boxes did you have ticked when clocking the OK button?
M In my version, with just the incoming mail and re-filter selected
M messages only boxes selected, for a single message in my TBUDL
M folder, clicking OK gets me two dialog boxes.
Ticking the boxes as you stated:
http://clip2net.com/s/68Djzd
Then clicking OK gets me this:
http://clip2net.com/s/68DoYt
M The first has a title of test results and a body text of Processed
M by: The Bat! User Discussion List. Actions performed: Moved to the
M folder \\[Path to]\The Bat! User Discussion List. That dialog box also
M has an OK button and when I click, the box disappears and shows the
M second one that was hidden behind it. (My filter and my folder for
M TBUDL messages are both called The Bat! User Discussion List)
M That one's title is Test filters and its body text is Messages
M processed: 1. Messages Filtered: 1. Re-filtering complete. There are
M Close and Help buttons.
As you can see, your Test filters box and mine differ. The box within the
box
contains a single long line which describes what actions were taken with this
message as follows:
Message from MFPA, subject Re: Feature request? Messages display filtering
used., size 6,368 bytes filtered (processed by Processed by: Faux inbox.
Actions performed: Move to the folder \\Jack S. LaRosa\Faux inbox,
Processed
by: TBUDL List Server. Actions performed: Move to the folder \\Jack S.
LaRosa\TBUDL), URL:
msgid:04868015.20131109140042@my_localhost?folder=\\Jack%20S.%20LaRosa\TBUDL
M For what it's worth, ticking the log filtering results box appears
M to make no difference. The results of the Test Filters function do
M not appear in the account log. Maybe they are written to another file
M somewhere, but I have never felt the need to look for one.
Nowhere do I see an option to log filtering results.
I can only assume the difference in our versions is causing the disparity.
I've
never used the right-click test filters option anyway. I usually use the
FOLDER + RE-FILTER and then only if I've created a new filter or modified an
old
one. Even then I'm only interested in whether the filter worked or not and
not
in how it worked. I can see however how such information might help in
determining why a new or modified folder failed to work. I'll try it next
time.

I wasn't aware of the window behind the first one. The second window
is there and does indeed do what I was hoping for, thanks for pointing
out where I was going wrong.
