Just downloaded the latest version and set it up on my two Apple systems. A 2020 M1 MacBook Pro, and an Intel 2014 Mac mini. Did the install/setup on the MacBook Pro first and ended up adding a few message filters per this information: https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/blocking-sender

I'm now in the process of setting up the Mac mini, and rather than redoing the message filters wondering if there is a specific file in the Thunderbird profile that I can copy over to the Mac mini that would make both machines have the same message filter settings?

Filters are stored in the msgFilterRules.dat file in the account subfolders of Mail and ImapMail of the profile folder, e.g. in Mail/pop.gmail.com or ImapMail/imap.aol.com. The dat file can be copied between accounts on the same or different computers (with TB closed).
