296120 - junk purge delay often leads to not purging

Status: RESOLVED INCOMPLETE

I was talking to someone on IRC yesterday who was having problems with
his junk mail not being purged after the 1 day he had set in
preferences. Today he came back and said his problem was in fact the 5 minute
purge delay. If he closes thunderbird before it gets a chance to kick in, he
gets the idea that thunderbird is somehow not respecting his setting.

Now I wonder whether performing a purge on shutdown is feasible.

(Otherwise, perhaps you could reduce the delay for the first purge.)
