No confirmation required. coupled with "empty trash on exit" option, this is by far the healthiest way to maintain your mailfoders in good shape. Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. configure "empty trash on exit" per account 2. configure "compact folders when saving more then xxKB" Actual Results: a. not sure when step 1. happenes, but trash gets cleared. b. apparently 2. is associated with TB startup? because having both 1. and 2. set, I exit TB and nothing happens, then I start TB and i get the annoying confirmation request described in bug #115499 Expected Results: I. empty trash should empty trash folder _and_ compact all folders by default. (either by menu->file, or by "empty trash on exit" per account pref) II. compact folder should exist in context menu for each folder as is. III. compact folders (all) should exist in menu->file as is. IV. bug #115499 V. "compact folders when saving more then xxKB" should operate globally on all accounts, all folders, on exit, except for the accounts with "empty trash on exit" (it would be a waste of time to apply the same operation twice)
actually, Netscape 4 only did it on *local* mail. *** This bug has been marked as a duplicate of 61960 ***

well, in NS4 you could only have 1 (one) POP account per profile. More only for IMAP. TB can configure N POP accounts. aren't they local as well ? (regarding storage, right?)
