172330 - Mail is not removed from pop server

Status: RESOLVED EXPIRED

(MailNews Core :: Backend, defect)

Description

[Casey Weinberg]

The option to delete messages from server when trash folder is emptied, doesnt
work. The only way I can get the messages to be deleted is to have it remove the
messages when they are downloaded.

Always include a build ID with bug reports please.

not a movemail bug.

Reporter, Does the same problem still exist with a current build?

This is related to, and possibly a dupe of, Bug 89034 - Using filters stops
messages from being deleted on the server.

Reporter, do you have any filters enabled?  

Regardless, there are many bugs with deleting POP mail from server, and they
should probably all be looked at together.

This is an automated message, with ID "auto-resolve01".

This bug has had no comments for a long time. Statistically, we have found that
bug reports that have not been confirmed by a second user after three months are
highly unlikely to be the source of a fix to the code.

While your input is very important to us, our resources are limited and so we
are asking for your help in focussing our efforts. If you can still reproduce
this problem in the latest version of the product (see below for how to obtain a
copy) or, for feature requests, if it's not present in the latest version and
you still believe we should implement it, please visit the URL of this bug
(given at the top of this mail) and add a comment to that effect, giving more
reproduction information if you have it.

If it is not a problem any longer, you need take no action. If this bug is not
changed in any way in the next two weeks, it will be automatically resolved.
Thank you for your help in this matter.
