Is the "time" filter for messages gone?
Hi,
I had a message filter who marked as read messages I'd get from our status bot for two services (because they're offline during the night) and I only wanted that to happen for messages between 7pm and 6am. But when I upgraded to Firefox 68, the "time" type was missing and I can't find it anymore.
I couldn't find anything about that in the changelogs nor did see anyone talk about it. Is this a bug or did we loose a feature?
Thanks.

Filters have only ever been able to act on messages that are a certain Age in Days or arrive before or after a certain date. To have one act according to a specific time interval, you might be able to do this with a custom Received header. Unless you arranged to open TB just before 7pm, and applied Age in Days + is less than + 1.
Do you have a backup of the filter file, msgFilterRules.dat, with 'time'.?

I can't find my previous msgFilterRules.dat unfortunately. I might think that I used an extension at some point in the past and just forgot about it. Sorry for taking your time.
