I am looking for a means, programmatically or otherwise, to run a Thunderbird message filter every X number of minutes. Thunderbird has a built-in option to run a filter on the Inbox every 10 minutes. But This is not adjustable. I am looking for a way to run any specified message filter every 1 minute.
I've searched around and unfortunately (for me) this does not seem to be an issue others are trying to solve.
Any assistance would be appreciated.
(And in the mean time, I will RTFM Thunderbird to see if there is a way I can solve this.)
Thunderbird / Settings / Advanced / show all
mail.server.default.periodicFilterRateMinutes 5 minutes
Above "Advanced / show all" got replaced in Oct 2024 Thunderbird 128+ by Thunderbird / Tools / Settings / General / Config Editor (bottom most button), which I found by this post. In the search bar, type what's written above, which should display just one field where you can enter your minutes.
