[Bug 174207] Re: thunderbird - when deleting mail, mail is not deleted physically
When I found this 'feature' I asked for comments on Mozilla's forums and received this encouraging discourse: http://forums.mozillazine.org/viewtopic.php?t=601991 which ultimately led to Thunderbird being the first open source program I strongly discourage my clients from using. Don't expect much support upstream on this. They believe that any rational person would understand that "empty trash" means "remove the e-mail from view but keep on the hard drive" and "compact" means "delete forever." -- thunderbird - when deleting mail, mail is not deleted physically https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/174207 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

[Bug 174207] Re: thunderbird - when deleting mail, mail is not deleted physically
When I found this 'feature' I asked for comments on Mozilla's forums and received this encouraging discourse: http://forums.mozillazine.org/viewtopic.php?t=601991 which ultimately led to Thunderbird being the first open source program I strongly discourage my clients from using. Don't expect much support upstream on this. They believe that any rational person would understand that "empty trash" means "remove the e-mail from view but keep on the hard drive" and "compact" means "delete forever." -- thunderbird - when deleting mail, mail is not deleted physically https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/174207 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
