576404 - Add an 'Empty Junk/Deleted' for the parent folder of all Junk or Deleted folders

Status: RESOLVED DUPLICATE of bug 529229

(Thunderbird :: Folder and Message Lists, enhancement)

Description

[Dennis Prochniak]

User-Agent:       Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux i686; en-US; rv:1.9.2.6) Gecko/20100627 Gentoo Firefox/3.6.6
Build Identifier: 

 

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1.Right click on the parent folder of Junk or Deleted folders

Actual Results:  
No 'Empty Junk/Deleted' drop down entry to click on. That would would remove Junk/Deleted messges from the subfolders of the tree.

Expected Results:  
'Empty Junk/Delete' drop down entry that can delete/empty all junk/deleted messages in the child folders/email accounts.

Also it would be good if a confirmation dialog would warn the user as for individual foldrs. Ofcourse the user should be able to disable this warning permamently e.g. 'Don't show this dialog again' as for the single delete/junk folders.

If you mean the unified Junk folder, I think there's already a bug on this.

Yes a delete option for the unified Junk folder so all Junk subfolders get emptied. If it has been already reported please mark as duplicate. Thanks
