Wouldn't it be better and more powerful to filter the junk mails before saving them into the file, right in the main memory before? On accounts with 90% junk, that really matters...

This bug is a feature request, not a compact-after-deletion/move (what would be really bad and even less effective...) Why you do something like that: Get Mail - Save Mail - Read Mail - put it through a Filter - Leave it or move it and not: Get Mail - Filters - Save it where it has to be The thing that makes it a duplicate for you is only a side effect of this, not the bug itself...
