I am getting very frustrated by the fact that to delete the spam from my inbox I need to go via the trash folder. When my inbox gets full up, squirrelmail won't append the message to the trash folder because there isn't enough memory. SO I can't free up more memory because there isn't enough memory to move the mail to the trash folder. The only way to do this I've found so far is to use the smallest emails and send them one by one to the trash folder, deleting them one by one, and gradually freeing up enough memory to send larger pieces of mail to the folder. This is very time consuming.

As most of this is spam I don't even read, I'd be much happier deleting it straight away in my inbox. Is there a way to do this without using the trash folder?

Cheers, Dixie.

 From your webmail account
Options->Folder Preferences
In the section "Special Folder Options" choose [Do Not Use Trash] from the Trash Folder dropdown list.

This can be globally set as the default using the configure script.

You can also use SquirrelMail 1.5.1, which has a "bypass trash" checkbox next to the delete button.

Cheers,

paul
