(*** This bug was imported into bugs.kde.org ***) Package: kmail Version: 1.2 (using KDE 2.1.0 ) Severity: wishlist Installed from: compiled sources Compiler: gcc version 2.95.2 19991024 (release) OS: Linux 2.2.14 i686 OS/Compiler notes: Hi In some cases I want to instantely shred an incoming mail (like well known spam address) mail from archenemy or similar. Currently this appears to be only possible using external or special filters. What about adding a new 'discard' filter action which just well discards the mail? Like if I specify /dev/null as output rule in my .procmailrc... Ciao Marcus (Submitted via bugs.kde.org) (Called from KBugReport dialog)

No it won't happen because this is too dangerous (has been discussed=20 before several times). There's not problem with sending mail to the trash.

The problem is that it still shows up as (1) unread mail in there. This is mostly a psychological problem I admit but neithertheless. What about creating a 'Set Mail Status to Read' filter? Hmm and I just checked Netscape Mail and they are not afraid to offer a 'Delete' option ;) Ciao Marcus

Patch your kmail recompile and you have that. Also it will be there when I've finished the big filtering rework. > Hmm and I just checked Netscape Mail and they are not afraid to offer > a 'Delete' option ;) AFAIK that just moves the mail to the trash.
