297362 - Can't delete mails in Junk folder in Local Folders

Status: RESOLVED EXPIRED

(Thunderbird :: Mail Window Front End, defect)

Description

[Tina Krogull]

User-Agent:       Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.1; en-US; rv:1.7.8) Gecko/20050511 Firefox/1.0.4
Build Identifier: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.1; en-US; rv:1.7.8) Gecko/20050511 Firefox/1.0.4

I'm using Thunderbird version 1.0.2 (20050317).

I set up the filters in all my email accounts to move junk mail to the Junk
folder located under Local Folders.

As we run our own mail server I check the headers of the junk mails. So I keep
the junk mails for some time in the Junk folder.

When Thunderbird has been running for a while (several hours) and I want to
delete the Junk mails I use the option "Tools I Delete Mail marked as Junk in
Folder". Nothing happens. Even when I open the mails and click the delete button
nothing happens.

I have to exit Thunderbird and restart it. Once restarted I can use the option
via the Tools menu or delete all mails by marking them and then hitting the
delete button on my keyboard.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
See details above
Actual Results:  
See details above

Expected Results:  
Delete the mails

Are you sure that you have the Junk mail folder in Local Folders selected when
you do this?

Yes, I definately have the folder selected. Even if I just select one or more
mails in the folder "manually" I can't delete them.
