196964 - Add folder properties to allow user to disable automatic junk mail analysis on a per folder basis

Status: RESOLVED DUPLICATE of bug 189970

(SeaMonkey :: MailNews: Message Display, enhancement)

Description

[(not reading, please use [e-mail] instead)]

[rfe] add folder properties to allow user to disable automatic junk mail
analysis on a per folder basis.

right now, we only skip it for trash and junk.

ninosckha hit this on her bugzilla bug email folder
blizzard hit this on his archived inbox folders.

it could go in the folders properties dialog, and then in the backend, we'd
check if the folder was ok for auto analysis.

manual analysis would still work.

I'm getting direct email about this from power filter / imap users.

Perhaps attaching all junk filtering features to the common mail filtering would
make the job. I'm not sure, whether it fits your intentions, I walked trough
related webpages, and it seems, that there is a goal defined to support junk
classification in mail filters.

The simple solution then would be to place junk recognizing filter in the line
of sorting filters (or tweak the junk filtering per filter), and drop the check
on folder open, in other words, the junk status would be evaluated as the
filters were applied.

I'm not sure, it is a good idea at all.
