274729 - In a Saved Search folder, manually marked Junk mail is not moved/deleted

Status: RESOLVED WORKSFORME

(Thunderbird :: Mail Window Front End, defect)

Description

[Joshua Cope]

I'm not sure if this is a defect or an enhancement, but it certainly feels
counterintuitive to me.

In Thunderbird version 1.0 (20041206): Open a Saved Search folder, and click the
"Junk" icon in the message list. The message is marked as junk, but no further
action is taken; the user has to manually move or delete the message himself.

Manually identified Junk in a Saved Search folder should be handled the same way
as any other folder: it should be moved or deleted as specified in Tools -> Junk
Mail Controls.

I see this with version 1.0 (20041216) as well, and I agree it seems
counterintuitive.

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.

Tested today with: version 1.5 Beta 1 (20050914)

The behavior is better, but not ideal.

Currently, if I manually mark a piece of mail as junk in a real folder, it is
removed from that folder immediately, and placed in the Trash can (Junk mail
controls says to delete the item).

If I manually mark a piece of mail as junk in a saved search folder, it remains
in the folder view, but is deleted (i.e. the folder view is not refreshed, and
it should be).  Note that the item is NOT placed in the trash can, it's just gone.

Obviously, I don't really care that the item isn't placed in the trash can (I
have the account set up to empty trash on exit anyway), but the behavior in the
two cases should be consistent.

1.5 Beta 1 (20050908) works correctly for me. I do get a folder refresh after
marking the item as junk, and the message ends up in the trash can, as expected.
 My junk mail controls are set to delete immediately, like Miguel's. 

I'm not sure what the difference is, but from what I can tell the bug is fixed.
In any case, the original problem is fixed: the message does get handled
(deleted) now, as specified in the junk mail policy.
