352184 - mark messages from trusted domains as non junk

Status: RESOLVED FIXED

(MailNews Core :: Backend, defect)

Description

[David :Bienvenu]

I couldn't find a bug about this, though I'm surprised. The idea is that if the sender of an e-mail is in a trusted domain (e.g., your small company), then mark it as non-junk. Even though sender is easily spoofed, it's unlikely to be spoofed, and the risk of missing an internal e-mail because it's in the junk folder is greater than the risk of a false negative, at least for some class of users.

mark mail from senders whose host is in trusted domain as non junk. I moved code from nsMsgContentPolicy into nsMsgUtils.cpp so it could be shared...

I agree that's the case for the class of users who are setting this hidden pref.

Where is the "trusted domain" defined? I couldn't find it in my trunk build's options (version 3 alpha 1 (20060923)). Is it "Allow remote images if sender is in my xxxx"? (BTW: it should say: xxxx address book)

Peter, it’s a hidden preference called ‘mail.trusteddomains’, accepting a list of comma-separated domains. This preference can be accessed through the configuration editor which you can find in the advanced tab of Thunderbird’s options.
