Hello, I was playing around with new message filters and reorganizing my messages. After making a new filter thunderbird started making new folders that I've previously deleted. Now I can't delete them, because after opening thunderbird folders still exist and even more, they multiply. I've tried deleting them, deleting old filters, running without them, making new ones - all to no avail. Did anybody had the same issue?

I think the root of your problem is using the pipe character, |, in folder names, which forces TB to create the folders with the 7b62... suffix.
