Running SeaMonkey 2.40.

When I get junk emails I like to create a filter for that sender which
dumps the message into Trash. I've been doing that for a long time.

Suddenly, I can't seem to locate how to get to "create Filter from
Message" anymore.

How do I get that function back to where I can use it.

Thanks guys,

Jeff

First select the message in the message list pane, then use the menu command
"Message >> Create Filter from Message"

Thanks Ralph.

I don't seem to see the menu command "Message" anymore.

I made an image of what's above the message list pane.

I can't remember everything that used to show up there back when I could
create filters, so maybe I did something which removed what should be
there. If that's the case, how do I get it back again? Reinstall
SeaMonkey again?

Thanks,

Jeff

Problem solved.

All I had to do was right click on a toolbar and select "Menu Bar".
