Where does Thunderbird store 'right-click' filters?

1

Context: Thunderbird 26 beta, Windows 7

One of the nice things about Thunderbird (and for me, one of the most intensely irritating) is the ability to create filters by right-clicking the sender's email address and selecting Create Filter From...

The irritation comes from this: where is the filter stored? It does not appear in the list of filters when selected from the menu via Tools>Message Filters..., so I have no idea whether it has actually been created or not. And I can't manage what I can't see.

This issue, by the way, has been with me for years and is not just with v26beta.

For multiple accounts you could try the Filters for in Message Filters. If the problem persists, please also check in a new profile.

I also asked this question on the Mozilla GetSatisfaction site. The answers are interesting.
