A category (Daily Brain something) of emails that are clearly spam (you even think they are spam) are landing in my Inbox every day. I have my email set to not allow emails from any addresses that aren't in my book. If I follow their 'unsubscribe' link, I just get more of them. This is the latest one: ar849137@ocotille.com with a Reply To address of: 3527_rep_Y2pnZGVzaWduc0BlYXJ0aGxpbmsubmV0@ocotille.com Every one is different. Why are these getting through? Thanks Cary

Hello,

I have found that once an email is put in the trash it will automatically be removed/deleted from the trash.

Today is June 14th and there are no emails in my trash folder older than June 9th.

Is there an account setting in Thunderbird for how long an email once in the trash folder will remain there?

Note, this behavior only occurs in the trash folder.

Using Mac Tahoe latest and Thunderbird 140.11.1esr (aarch64)

Thanks so much.

I have 6 email accounts linked to Thunderbird. I noticed today on one of the accounts, along with inbox, drafts, sent, etc., there is now a spam icon. I didn't change any settings or even look at that email account today. This is the only account with that icon and it won't allow me to delete it. All settings between all accounts are the same, just this dang spam fire icon that I can't delete

Settings have been set to move Spam to my spam folder. Although Spam is identified it does not get moved to my Spam folder. It used to happen but an upgrade a while back seemed to stop it happening. I have tried undoing and re-doing settings to no avail. Can someone help please?

When I get spam email in my inbox, I mark it as SPAM. It will arrive again in a couple of days. Why does it come into my in-box still? Its marked as SPAM in my In-BOX!

I don't want to keep touching junk email!!! its a huge waste of time. I cannot find the settings on how to make that action happen.

Please advise. If this isnt possible I will unfortunately be leaving your platform after decades of use. Yes I have donated several times over the years. Not get rich money, but it all helps.

When I receive a junk email, it spends a brief time in my inbox before being moved to the spam folder by the automatic classifier of Thunderbird. In that brief window, the notification system already displays the notification. I found no way of changing that behavior. Is this normal behavior? How to change it?

A few weeks ago I began getting spam in my inbox from about ten senders (Omaha steaks, C0stco, Marriot, Harbor Freight, Harbor Tools, Ace, Lowes, CVS, Blue Cross) and no matter what I do, I can’t make it stop. In fact, the numbers have grown higher every day - probably now over 100. Marking them as junk doesn’t work. I have triple-checked all my settings. And setting up specific filters with these names hasn't worked. I don’t have a spam add-on but I see here in Support complaints about SpamAssassin’s ineffectiveness.

Is anyone else getting junk from these specific senders? Has anyone discovered a way to banish them?

I have forwarded (from my Thunderbird account) an email from our local hospital about an appointment to my mailfence address three times now, but all three were deemed undeliverable by the mailer-Daemon. I removed all links on the third attempt in case that was the problem, but no luck.

Error code: 554 Rejected : Spam ?

For further assistance, please send mail to postmaster.

How do I do that? Is my question. Is there a 'Postmaster' address to use?

Many thanks David Edwards

Folder one: Spam .... this is the new one, automatically installed through a thunderbird program . Mails by filter marked as spam now get sent to THIS Folder. ____________________________________________________________________________________ Folder two: Spam .... this was up to now the correct existing one. ('Spam gemeldet' means: Spam mails sent to the government anti-spam authority.) So: this folder nr. 2 should be eliminated, as the folder nr. 1 seams to be the normal working one.

Thank you very much for your help! Peter

I am new to Thunderbird, and attempting to use it as my email client. So far I have imported my main Gmail account, a second Gmail account, as well as three different Microsoft accounts. There is a duplicate Spam folder on one of the Exchange accounts, which I assume came with the import. There is, however, no way to delete the Spam folder from the original MS account. None of the other accounts has this issue, although when I had duplicate Trash folders on Gmail accounts earlier, I was able to delete them from the original account, which allowed them to disappear from TB. The Spam messages in TB actually only populate into one of the Spam folders. Any ideas what else I can do to get rid of this superfluous Spam folder, please? Many thx for any help!
