Smart Folders not available on Win7 64bit Pro

Thunderbird Tips

1. Create smart mailboxes-3 inside the Mail folder in your profile directory
2. Check to see that mail.server.server(something).directory-rel have this inside it. " [ProfD]Mail/smart mailboxes-3 " and nothing else.
3. Check that the path to your smart folders are correct. Should say something like " C:\Users\username\AppData\Roaming\Thunderbird\Profiles\profile.name\Mail\smart mailboxes-3 "

Bug, that really don't have to be a thunderbird bug posted and resolved in bugzilla, here!
