445445 - need an undo for messages that are junked by accident (ctrl-J, junk status, junk button)

Status: RESOLVED WONTFIX

(Penelope Graveyard :: Mail Window, defect, P3)

Description

[Carsten Gehrke]

User-Agent:       Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux i686; en-US; rv:1.9) Gecko/2008061712 Fedora/3.0-1.fc9 Firefox/3.0
Build Identifier: Eidora 8.0.0b3

The original version of Eudora would offer an undo function for junked messages, i.e. if you marked a message as junk by accident, it was easy to retrieve it and restore its original non-junk status.  If the current version of Eudora is set to transfer junked messages to the Trash folder, the undo function will only retrieve it, but not reset the junk status.  This most be done in a separate step.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
0. Under Preferences..., select Privacy, then Junk tab and check "When I mark messages as junk: Delete them"
1. Select a message in the list pane.
2. Junk it with ctrl-J, or some other method.
3. Select Edit|Undo Delete Message.
4. Message is back in list, but still marked as junk.
Actual Results:  
See 4. above (the message is back in the list, but still junk).

Expected Results:  
Eudora 7.x would restore the message to the list, and remove the junk status.

Similarly, I'd like the option to have an alert popup to confirm junk status when one clicks on the Junk Status column in the message pane.  Too often while selecting messages I would click on the column accidentally and then my message (POP) would immediately go to Trash, often without me even noticing.

FWIW, Thunderbird allows to unmark messages from Junk status.

Undo will move the message back to the source mailbox, but it is not marked as not junk. Almost there.

Penelope didn't see any activity in the vcs for the last 8 years, closing.
