<p dir="auto">Hi,</p>
<p dir="auto">When editing a mailbox rule, if I change the condition, the match text also changes, which seems unexpected. For example, if an existing rule contains:</p>
<blockquote style="border-left:2px solid #777; color:#BBB; margin:0 0 5px; padding-left:5px; border-left-color:#BBB">
<p dir="auto">[ Recipient (To, Cc, Bcc) > <strong>User</strong> ] [ is not ] [ <strong>foo@gork</strong> ]</p>
</blockquote>
<p dir="auto">And I change the condition subpart from "User" to "Address", the match text gets replaced with something:</p>
<blockquote style="border-left:2px solid #777; color:#BBB; margin:0 0 5px; padding-left:5px; border-left-color:#BBB">
<p dir="auto">[ Recipient (To, Cc, Bcc) > <strong>Address</strong> ] [ is not ] [ <strong>bar@flex</strong> ]</p>
</blockquote>
<p dir="auto">I would expect that when editing an exiting rule which already contains text in the match text field, that text would remain and not be replaced.</p>
</blockquote>
<p dir="auto">Does this happen when you do NOT have a message selected in the message list? I could see this being a useful feature, by using context to "help" you edit the rule.</p>

<p dir="auto">When creating a new rule, yes, I can see it being helpful. But when editing an existing rule, I find it counter-productive and unhelpful. This is because a new rule would otherwise have an empty match text field, so a guess as to what to put there won't hurt, but an existing rule already has text there, and to delete it is not expected nor helpful.</p>
