Hello everyone, Ive used Thunderbird for many years, but still have unresolved issue with antispam/junk filter. It become irritating, because of tons of spam coming to my mailbox recently.

In terms of recognizing spam - the filter it works very fine, but the problem is it will not start scanning mailbox until I manually click in the Tools menu "Run Junk Mail Controls on Folder" each time i start Thunderbird. How to make it automatic? "Is it a bug, or is it a feature?"

Best regards, Flojd

It should be running automatically, not just when Thunderbird is starting/checking for messages at startup, but also every time messages are fetched. Each message that arrives undergoes junk classification at the time it is fetched by Thunderbird. An exception is if you had messages downloaded before enabling the junk filtering, and you want the junk filtering mechanism to analyse those messages, then you'd manually run the Junk Mail Controls on Folder. This shouldn't be necessary though, because junk filtering is enabled by default. See Thunderbird and Junk / Spam Messages for more info.

Which version of Thunderbird are you using?

Version number is 68.8.1 (32-bit) and it asks for update to 68.9.

Actually I've strugled with it since about 2013... :) when I switched from POP3 to IMAP and needed other client than Outlook Express. :)

To be onest, after I manually click "Run Junk Mail Controls on Folder", every next message fetched from server is being checked(and automatically moved to trash folder, as it was configured) until I shut down Thunderbird/PC. The problem occurs when I start the PC the next day and I have new spam messages in my box received at the night. Thunderbird downloads new items to inbox(synchronizes - IMAP), but it won't do spam-check, untill I force him to do this again.

Btw. I have 5 active IMAP mailboxes - maybe it is too much? Unfortunatelly I have to start checking junk manually for each of them, for each time I start the app. :/

Or another idea... mail server has antispam service active - maybe this goes in conflict with thunderbird's antispam somehow?
