hi there,
using: the bat! voyager 9.5.1
and: antispamsniper 3.3.4.6
if a mail comes to my inbox, and i press the 'mark as spam' button, then
it now gets move into a 'junk mail' directory (folder) and that is not really
what i would like to do.
in the options i told the programm to delete, as seen here:
why is there no option to mark as spam and delete directly?
you see, it is not as if i want to read the spam mails afterwards. if i say it is
spam, then i want to get rid of it and not find it in some other directory
where i must again delete it manually. that can not be the purpose of
the programme makeing double the work instead of the good old:
"one click and you're dead/gone/deleted (and will never come back again)"
any thoughts? or am i missing something somewhere?
kind regards |

It is possible to modify TheBat settings, making it to delete all messages from Junk mail folder each time on exit. It is necessary to select the Junk mail folder, choose Properties from context menu, and enable the following on Additional tab:

Don't forget to enable the checkbox for moving spam to junk folder on Anti-spam tab in TheBat Preferences. This option is disabled by default, and TheBat does nothing with spam classified by plug-in. |

hi,
allthough your solution might work, it is not what i was hoping for.
it still moves the spam to another directory (folder) and does not
what the name would suggest "to snipe" (kill, eliminate).
it is a shame that this has obviously not come up yet as a request.
your solution might work for one email-address but i have about 20
and i already found it tiresome to teach the bat the same settings
for every one of the email-accounts instead of defining it once in
general settings that are addapted for every other email-account
as well.
so in the long run at the moment i will just teach the antispamsniper
what is junk and what not and just hope that in a future version
somebody will add a delete option somewhere down the line.
until then i will just delet manually.
but thanks for the info and the tips.
kind regards |
