Hello,


how can I set Thunderbird to always hide emails that have been marked as deleted in an IMAP account?

There is a dropdown "View" which can be set to "Not deleted", which does the job. But this dropdown resets as soon as you select a new folder, which of course makes it impractical to use.

How can I

a) set "Not deleted" as default for all folders

and

b) make Thunderbird instantly hide a message I have just marked as deleted? (Even if the dropdown is already set to "not deleted", a message newly deleted is still just stricken out, but still listed until I select "not deleted" again.)


To make it very clear: Thunderbird's principal behaviour in marking-as-deleted with IMAP is correct and expected. It's just the view filter that doesn't work as required.


Regards

perhaps change the option in account setting to remove it immediately. (expunge) or move it to a folder (like the deleted folder)

No, absolutely not: This (marking emails as deleted instead of removing them from the storage) is proper IMAP behaviour. I don't want to break that at all, I just need Thunderbird to work with it in a usable way.
