Thunderbird 128.10.0 Filter's not saving email with attachment

Hello,

I have a filter setup within Thunderbird 128.10.0 that was working properly up until I updated Thunderbird in April to the previous build. Today I updated to 128.10.0 and am still having the issue.

The filter has two steps. 1) Save the attachment that is in the email to disk 2) Move email to trash.

Step 1 is not working (save attachment to disk), but step 2 does (email gets moved to trash).

When I go into the filter settings and manually run the rule, the filter works properly.

Any suggestions?

In the Filter Rules dialog box, in the "Getting New Mail: " drop-down menu, did you choose "Filter before Junk Classification" or "Filter after Junk Classification"? If you chose "Filter before Junk Classification", maybe you can change to "Filter after Junk Classification" and see whether it works or not.
