Deleted email, Looking for a way to view deleted emails in a list
 
#1

I am looking for a way to view deleted emails in a list much as you do "flagged" or "parked" I can browse through them but if you just deleted 100 emails from several folders (not from the accounts but this applies even there) paging through them is time consuming.

If there isn't a way to do this it might be a fast east addition to the next version.

thanks

Rick

I guess you could view your trash folder.

However items moved to folders and then deleted don't always show in the acccounts' deleted mail.

That is where I started until I discovered this. Also I poll several accounts and don't always remember which account something arrived in.

If it is still in the database then there is a flag marking it as deleted. A tab (for instance) that would let you view all mail with that flag would be handy

What you propose can't be done as yet and I don't consider it very likely that it'll be implemented any time soon unlees you'd bribe Ritlabs with big amounts of money. ;-)

Three things.
You can set in the folder properties where you want deleted messages to go, so if they don't go to the trash (or whatever you've set in the account deletion settings) then you've played around with those settings.

It's possible to get a list of all deleted messages in a single folder. When you see just one message while 'browsing deleted messages' select the 'view message list' option under the view menu.

If it's only about messages downloaded in your current run of TB you can see all deleted messages by browsing deleted messages in your inbox, this won't only show you deleted messages but also moved messages, but it keeps you from searching all folders. The reason behind this is that every message gets a place in the Inbox before it's being processed by the sorting office. (That's also the reason why big inboxes are so prone to corruption.)

 :D :o  I already gave Ritlabs big amounts of money!! :o :D
Seriously they have always gotten back fairly quickly so far and I have found YOUR answers in these forms to be fast and friendly - even with some very upset people :!:  or with people like me who are new and not found all the switches and buttons yet.

You must admit their helpfile and forum searching leave a lot to be desired. However when I have found incorrect thing in the help file they have always seemed glad to receive the information.

Back to deleted emails: I have a common virtual folder that looks into all the trash folders in all the accounts but again if I have moved a file to a folder it doesn't seem to appear there nor in the original trash folder hence the idea to be able to view all deleted mail in a folder possible by a quick search selection and/or a tab. It seems most of the code to do this is already in place as viewing "Flags" & "Parked" are simply filtering those internal flags

I am new and keep finding things that need to be configured. I may find a good work-around 8)
