Version: 1.9.1 (using KDE 3.5.1, compiled sources) Compiler: gcc version 3.4.2 [FreeBSD] 20040728 OS: FreeBSD (i386) release 5.4-STABLE This is the scenerio: 1) <Settings> 2) <Configure KMail 3) <Accounts> 4) <Receiving> 5) Double click account name 6) Check: Leave fetched Mail on the Server 7) Click OK Now, I configure the POP filters. 1) <Settings> 2) Configure POP Filters 3) Enter information as required 4) Check: Delete mail from server This will not work. The mail cannot be deleted from the server if “Leave fetched Mail on Server” is checked as described above. I believe this is a bug. The POP filters configuration should take precedence over the <Accounts> <Receiving> setting.
Could you please provide your reasoning for this?
A possible use case that comes to my mind is leaving all messages on the POP server, but automatically deleting all messages marked as spam.
