Description Hubert Figuiere (:hub) 2005-02-13 04:14:39 UTC
Junk mail appear in the IMAP folder it originate with another client. That
is confusing when one use Evolution on one machine and another IMAP client
like Thunderbird on another machine. On Thunderbird, the mail marked as
junk by Evolution is not treated as Junk. But Thunderbird, when marking
junk mail, use the IMAP \Junk flag. I think both client should share this
choice as this make sense.
Comment 1 Jeffrey Stedfast 2005-02-14 20:19:30 UTC
there is no IMAP \Junk flag.
Comment 2 Helge Hess 2005-02-22 00:39:02 UTC
Its a persistent flag and it would be quite useful if client vendors
could agree on it. The flag is "Junk" (and "NotJunk"), not "\Junk".
