Are the settings for configuration stored in a file?

Post by chessmonster123 »

For filtaquilla, are the message filters configuration stored in a text file?

I'm asking because I need to deploy message filters by filtaquilla, and I have to create deployment steps. If I do a step by step procedure, it would be error prone. I was wondering if there is some file in mozilla or thunderbird which I can just manipulate to reflect the settings that I created from the GUI.

I'm using CentOS 7 by the way.

You might want to change your subject to include reference to Filtaquilla.

FiltaQuilla options are stored in the prefs.js file.

FiltaQuilla filter rules are stored in the msgFilterRules.dat files. (one per account)

prefs.js and user.js files

Can I edit filters using a text editor?
