Junk Mail Deletion from Server

2005-06-06 Thread Paul Jansen
Hi,

I have TB set up to delete mail from the server when the trash is
emptied.  I also use a common Junk Mail folder together with the Bayes
Filter plugin.

When I empty the common trash folder and the account specific trash
folder, the junk mail appears not to get deleted from the server.

Can anyone tell me what I am doing wrong?  Or even better how to make
this work, as I want to access e-mail from a mobile device and don't
want to download any junk if I can possibly avoid it.

Thanks

Because you're using a common junk folder, the link between the
account and the server gets lost.
It's been observed before that 'delete mail from server when trash
emptied'  stops working when mail gets moved outside the receiving
account. Though it could be seen as a bug, it has a certain logic that
account specific stuff is disregarded as soon as you move it to a
common folder.
My best guess to get it working would be to stop using a common junk
folder. Another option would be a server sided spamfilter, but I don't
know whether your ISP is providing that.
