Following in comment #65 is not easily applicable to "Delete key" user. Button script for "copy/move selected messaages to FolderUserWants" Key assignment change for "Delete Key" is needed, but it's not so easy even thoogh the key assignment change is simple job(it's merely a key assignment change, but side efects etc. should be fully cared because Delete key.)
So, your own Toolbar button like next may be better for "Delete key" users. When clicked, store Trash attribute to your own trash, and if Gmail IMAP, register eventListener for the folder. When eventListener detects "removal of Trash attribute from my own trash by Thunderbird", Anti Tb+Gmail feature wakes up: store Trash attribute to my own trash, and immediately clear Trash attribute of [Gmail]/Trash if [Gmail]/Trash exists. this is start of endless war with "Dark Tb+Gmail" :-) Merit of above : Applicable to all [Gmail]/Trash is shown case, hidden case, unsubscribed case, Problem of above : If Tb is restarted, "your own trash" looses Trash attribute until you click button again. FolderFlags addon may behave like above, because following was reported in bug 1175446. When [Gmail]/Trash is hedden by Gmail, if "his own trash" is set as "folder which has Trash attribure, which has trash can icon" by the addon, "trash can icon" of the "his own trash" is kept until restart of Thunderbird. Can some one check with FolderFlags addon? -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/885525 Title: Deleting a Gmail Message Always Sends Item to [Gmail]/Trash To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/thunderbird/+bug/885525/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
