Showing wrong message when an emptied folder is filled, I empty the Junk folder then more arrives; a different message shows
 
#1

Sometimes I want to read a message which has wound up in the Junk folder - most often this is a commercial post from a company I have dealt with before.
(This is judged by SpamPal with the Bayesian plug-in as Spam, the subject is marked with "???" and the filter sends it to the Junk folder. I can't use the SpamPal "whitelist" feature for every company I've ever bought from.)

After reading this wanted message then emptying the Junk folder completely, the next time I check the Junk folder a completely different message is shown in auto-view - a genuine spam email, often fairly disgusting.

Can I turn off auto-view for one folder? I looked and can't see how.

If not, can the function remembering which email was  last read in a folder look at some items (e.g. size, date, a checksum of the email etc.) to be sure it is auto-viewing the SAME email that I wanted to read, please?

I've done a search of the forum for "Junk" but nothing helpful showed up.

Thanks,

Hugh

You cannot do that.

TB doesn't remember which message was stored, but it'll show you the selected message. However, TB will remember the message slected last and will return to that (works for me every time). But as you said you emptied the folder completely, therefore there isn't any message to remember. I don't think this can be helped.

If the folder is emptied, can The Bat just not preview any message?
So, when a folder is emptied, please just "forget" any record of a selected message - after all there cannot be a real selected message once a folder is emptied!

It sometimes does this anyway (maybe if there aren't enough new messages to reach the "number" of the message previously selected?).

Thank you for your reply,

Hugh
