After posting my request about Thunderbird filter construction, I
subsequently located the below message from April of 2016 by Rod
Hutton. Needless to say, please disregard my previous request, and
thanks Rod for your prior assistance.

Hi,
I believe the keystroke to pull down a combo box in the filter creation wizard
used to be Alt-DownArrow, and, also, I recall that, if the keystroke didn't
work, you had to press spacebar on the control in order to get the darn thing
to drop down. Smile
Hth,
Rod

Subject: Re: Thunderbird filter construction problem
Hi there, when creating a filter it should say as you tab through the options
choose folder.
press control and down arrow and the list of folders will appear.
Use the down arrow key and you will hear local folders etc.
go to the folder you wish to have the email sent too and press enter.
Tab across to okay and this will create the filter you are making.
You can now also have email that you send to somewhere filtered.
This feature is handy!

I have the same issue on a Windows 7 Asus laptop and a Windows 10 HP
desktop. On each of these machines, I am running Window-eyes 9.4.
I know that this can or previously could be done as I have done it
previously although not recently. I am constructing a filter in the
latest version of Thunderbird which will monitor incoming email
messages so as to move them into specified folders. The process goes
fine until I get to the step where I am asked to select the folder
into which I want the messages to be moved. I can see the list of
email accounts from which to choose. But if I left click on any of
them, I am unceremoniously kicked back to the message list. Just what
am I missing? I know with absolute certainty that this could be done
in previous versions of Window-eyes after which I could select using
the same method the folder into which I wanted the messages to be
moved. So Tom or other Thunderbird users, please tell me the secret
as I frankly don't remember it.
Thanks in advance for assistance.
