Nor does NewsForge - I tried to create an account, and tells me that my password is incorrect! I haven't created a password, yet. Oops.
Anyhow, I use Moz from a few boxes; w32 & Linux. The good news is that I get the same behavior on all of them. The bad news is that the spam filter does not work. I also use the prebuilt release binaries of Moz 1.3.
Also, Robin's instructions are unclear, in particular this excerpt:
The "Junk" feature implementation is easy: You start by clicking on the "Tools" button [in email]<nobr> <wbr></nobr>... You set the "Junk" filters up to your taste
There is no menu option for "Junk filters" under "Tools". Here are the options:
Search Messages
Search Addresses
Message Filters
Junk Mail Controls
Mark Selected Messages as Junk
Mark Selected Messages as Not Junk
Run Junk Mail Controls on Selected Messages
Run Filters on Selected Folder
Import
Password Manager
Download Manager
Web Development
Switch Profile
This is not to nitpick, as it is confusing, between "Run Junk Mail Controls on Selected Messages" and "Run Filters on Selected Folder", which are quite different things.
I can click on the Junk Icon in the toolbar, and the Junk Icons show up in the column to the right. So far, so good.
The problem is that I tried clicking on the "Delete" toolbar icon, as suggested by Robin, this is no different from hitting the Delete key - the email message goes into Trash, not into the Junk folder.
Running Junk Mail Controls on Selected Messages does not work, either. I can, however, drag messages marked as junk into the junk folder.
There is no automation going on here. No new messages show up in my Junk folder.
