It allows me to select the Delete Radio button, but does not permit me to change back to "Move to Junk Folder" until I re-check the "Move incoming messages to.." checkbox. Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. Select "Enable junk mail controls" 2. Check "Move incoming messages determined to be junk mail to:" 3. Select "Junk" folder on: radio button 4. Check "When I manually mark messages as Junk:" 5. Select "Move to junk folder" 6. Uncheck "Move incoming messages determined to be junk mail to:" Actual Results: The subparts within the "Move incoming messages determined to be junk mail to:" are all disabled. For the "When I manually mark messages as Junk:" part, only the "Move to Junk Folder" radio is disabled. The Delete radio isn't. Expected Results: Either ALL of the "When I manually mark messages as Junk:" sub parts ("Move to Junk folder" and "Delete") be disabled, or they should all be enabled. My expectation would be that this subpart should be independent of the "Move Incoming messages determined to be junk mail to:" part.
Addendum: With the "Move incoming mail determined to be junk mail to:" unchecked, and the "Move to junk folder" disabled, when you go to the actual account's inbox and select an email as junk, nothing happens. So the "Move to junk folder" is truly disabled (but by that merit, it should also be fixed to moving the selected junk mail to the Junk folder, which it doesn't do.) So, in this situation, the junk mail is defaulted (by merit of the fixed setting of "Move to Junk folder") to be thrown into the Junk folder, but it doesn't because it's disabled. It's a little confusing.
Confirming. The bug here covers a weird combo of selection and unselection. When "Move..." is checked, then "...manually..." is checked, then "Move..." is unchecked, the two radio buttons of "...manually..." have different disabled states. This seems to be designed (partly) because the special Junk folder is only created when the "Move..." checkbox and first radiobutton are active. (pause for breath) If the "...manually..." checkbox's first radiobutton becomes selected but disabled, then manually marked junk mail will not be moved to a Junk folder even if one exists. The correct behavior should probably be to allow that radiobutton to be enabled based on the existence of a special junk folder, not on the checked state of the higher "Move..." checkbox.

Bug 221415 is this same problem, files as a Thunderbird bug.
Depending on TB bug since new changes should go into TB first. Also this should be "mail window front end" not "filters"...

Reopening. Bug 233281 is about Thunderbird, this bug about MailNews. They may or may not be fixed together since the code in question is actually forked. Also I don't think the patch in bug 233281 is correct. Seth: It seems you implemented this behaviour by purpose. See bug 194273 comment 36. Do you remember why you did this?

seems this was resolved in 1.7.12
(In reply to comment #12) > seems this was resolved in 1.7.12 I don't think so; I see the symptom as reported in Moz 1.7.12, Seamonkey 1.0a-0910, 1.1a-1030, Win2K.

Thunderbird bug for this issue is Bug 268101.
Oh, sorry. It is really still there. Imho the best way to fix it would be moving junk mail folder setting as separate option, probably to "Mail and Newsgroup account settings"/"Copies and folders" (but although with option "enable junk mail controls", because of bug 197864)
Here's a simpler description: "Manually mark messages as Junk": The option "Move to Junk" does not work when "Move incoming messages determined to be junk is unchecked" Expected result: With "Manually mark messages as Junk" - "Move to Junk" enabled pressing the "Junk" button should ALWAYS move the message to the Junk-folder.
(In reply to comment #16) > Here's a simpler description: > > "Manually mark messages as Junk": > The option "Move to Junk" does not work when "Move incoming messages > determined to be junk is unchecked" This gets to the core of what's really the problem here, and it is still true with the new organization of the junk controls (bug 257990, coming in TB 2.0). The difference with the new dialogs is that the Manually Move controls -- which appear in the Options dialog -- are never disabled (and the one setting applies to all accounts). Note that it's possible to disable junk detection for an account and still have the Move Detected Junk setting turned on, which in turn enables operation of the Move-on-Manual-Mark action. (In reply to comment #14) > Thunderbird bug for this issue is Bug 268101. It's not exactly the same: that bug notes that the junk folder is not created unless the Move Detected Junk option is selected. I'm marking this bug as dependent on that one (and moving both to Core). From bug 230110 comment 3 by David Nicol (duped to this bug): > I want to configure thunderbird to show me suspected junk but take away > confirmed junk. That configuration does not seem possible at this build. That's why this bug is an issue. However, as a workaround, if 'Delete' is selected as the manual-mark action, that will work even if the 'Move detected junk' setting is turned off (in TB 1.5 as well). This bug may be a little more visible once 2.0 is released, since the handling of manual-mark is now a global option, but multiple accounts can have independent move-detected-junk settings. If the global setting is Move, marking a message as Junk only moves them for accounts that automatically move junk; if the global setting is Deleted, marking a message as Junk deletes in all accounts.

I no longer see the option for how to handle mail manually marked as Junk. Where is that option setting now located in the UI?

I find it hard to believe that this bug exists for over 3 years now, and it hasn't been fixed yet... Isn't it about time?
Someone should finally split setting of junk folder and settings of what to do with messzages marked as junk, automatically or manually. I wonder why it wasn't done in SeaMonkey 1.1...
Can this bug be closed as DUP of FIXED Bug 279018 ?
This is not fixed in SeaMonkey 1.1.4. There are _some_ Junk controls in global menu, but "move new junk messages" is only in per-account menu, the setting of junk folder still depends on this and moving of manually marked messages doesn't work if it's unset.
(In reply to comment #25) > This is not fixed in SeaMonkey 1.1.4. Patch for Bug 279018 is applied to trunk only, is not applied to 1.8.1 branch yet. Can you re-produce problem with Seamonkey latest-trunk build? Note: Latest-trunk will try to migrate current profile your Sm 1.1.4 is using, if profile or kick of profile manager is not requested at start up. I recommend you to test with "seamonkey.exe -P" and new profile for future Sm 3.0, in order to avoid unwanted problems due to migrated profile. e.g. If trunk with migrated profile runs, mail is downloaded from POP3 server, then the downloaded mails can't be downloaded to current profile for Sm 1.1.4. This is trouble I really experienced while testing.
Sorry for not noticing. I wasn't able to run last 3 trunk builds on windows, If noone will confirm/deny this, I'll retry later
This feature works in trunk build 2007082803, however: 1. setting of junk folder still requires having automatic moving of junk messages turned on (if I turn it off, it remembers the junk folder setting and moves manually marked messages where expected) 2. moving of manually marked junk messages is set in Preferences, while automatic moving is set in mail/news account settings, which I found a bit unlogical - first is global setting, the latter is per-account setting. Technically, this bug is solved, however issues above make me think it should be tweaked a bit.
->WFM per comment 28. Feel free to reopen if you can reproduce with a recent trunk build.
