How to get Message Filters to work on Multiiple Email Accouts
I have three email accounts. I would like a single set of filters to work on all three accounts.
Recreating the filters for each account is a huge task.
Is there a simple way to get on set of filters to work on all three accounts without recreating them for each?
Thanks

The bad news is filters are per account. The good news is, you can copy the filter definitions between accounts, so you don't have to re-create them for each account.
The file that stores your filter settings is called "msgFilterRules.dat". Each account will have its own "msgFilterRules.dat" file, stored in the "Local Directory" for the account in your profile. The Local Directory is specified at the bottom of Tools -> Account Settings -> Server Settings, right by the Browse button. The filters for Local Folders are stored in the Mail\Local Folders directory in the profile.
If you want to duplicate an accounts filters in another account you don't need to create them again. Exit Thunderbird and copy the "msgFilterRules.dat" file instead. If the account is in another profile and it uses custom headers you will also need to copy the mailnews.customHeaders setting from prefs.js.
