Well, I've solved it, though I have no idea why it was necessary. As a last

I am always oké, not using filters!!!

Weird, I "migrated" a config to a new machine just over a year ago -

Have you tried disabling and re-enabling each filter?



I've done similar migrations in the past without any problems.  I've 
tried disabling and then re-enabling each of the filters. Nothing. They 
work, but not unless they're run manually. I guess the next thing I have 
to try is deleting a filter and redoing it from scratch, see if that 
makes a difference.

This happens to me when I create new receiving folders on my hard 
drive (even if the new folder has exactly the same name).


I'd love to hear of an easier fix; when this happens to me, I have to 
'reselect' the receiving folder for each filter.


I've seen that before, though I think the last time it happened, it was 
when I migrated a set of filters from one Seamonkey installation to 
another. Had to reselect all the folders, even though they exist on the 
server. Tried that, didn't do anything. I've also tried disabling and 
re-enabling the filters, still no change. The silly part is that they 
work, just have to be run manually.

Sending normal email to any address using the same outgoing server

and forwarding it using a filter.


This is a  new install. I have disabled the outgoing email check and

The server is an att server and it does have a password which is saved

Hi,

on a Windows 7 PC running SM 2.33 we have an IMAP account for which the
provider's spam filter has been activated. The filter moves the spam to
a spam folder on the server.

In Seamonkey, I created a message filter for this account that is
supposed to move mail from the inbox of the server to a local folder
when Get new messages is clicked. At the bottom of the Message Filters
dialog I made sure that Run selected filter(s) on: is set to Inbox.
However, the filter insists on also downloading the spam from the Spam
folder. The setting in the filter dialog seems to have no effect. Why is
that so and how can I change it?

Thanks,

Peter, as I understand things, with a POP e-mail account, SeaMonkey 
downloads all your e-mails into your inbox and *then* runs any filters 
you might have running and sends e-mails where you want them to go.


I don't know how IMAP differs from POP, but, in a POP account all the 
e-mails actually remain in the inbox file, even though you may have 
moved, i.e. copied, them into different folders. It is *only* when you 
File-Empty Trash and File-Compact Folders that the rubbish is actually 
removed from your inbox. Maybe the same happens with your IMAP folder, 
resulting in your IMAP Spam messages (that might still, really, be in 
the IMAP inbox folder) to be downloaded into your local inbox folder!!

I think that option just selects the folder filters are run on if you
click the Run Now button.


Ah. That would explain why the spam is _not_ moved when I click Run Now.


However, the filter insists on also downloading the spam from the Spam
folder. The setting in the filter dialog seems to have no effect. Why is

I'm not sure how to change that. From a quick search, it looks like
there are some extensions to enable filters to work on subfolders,
implying that they usually only operate on the inbox. Perhaps try
starting SeaMonkey with add-ons disabled (Help  Restart with Add-ons
Disabled) and see if filters are still applied to the spam folder?


There are almost no add-ons running on that machine. Only NoScript, and 
somehow I doubt that NoScript has something to do with it.



Does SeaMonkey filter mail from the spam folder which was received while
it's not running


Yes, that's what it does. Kind of defeats the purpose of the provider's 
spam filter.

Does SeaMonkey filter mail from the spam folder which was received while 
it's not running, or only spam received while SeaMonkey is running? If 
the latter, I'm wondering if it's possible that the mail provider 
briefly puts the messages in the inbox before moving them to spam, and 
that SeaMonkey is grabbing them from the inbox between those two steps?


Mark.

OK, I've added an exception rule now that filters on the junk score 
header. Hope that will solve the problem.

Anyone have an idea as to how to fix this?

I just went through this and had it reinstall xp.
Your profile was it created with this xp or did it come from a previous 
installs.

My problem was traced to xp's error on file ownership not rights

I would try compacting your Junk/Spam box. Right-click on the mailbox in
the tree-view list, and select 'Compact this folder'.

Otherwise, perhaps the Junk/Spam box is corrupted?

... to folder VisPython. You may need to shutdown SeaMonkey and delete

Maybe a reboot is in order.
