If you delete Normail Mail it moved to TRASH folder

  • If its IMAP it stored in your Mail Server
  • It its POP3 then it stored in your local machine

Once you delete the Junk Mails, it will be removed completely from System and server.

CCleaner won't delete your emails, even if its in TRASH folder.


Thunderbird > Left Side Panel > Choose the Email Id

  • Right Click and Select "Settings"
    • EMail > Server Settings > Message Storage
    • Check [x] Empty Trash on Exit, so whenever your closing your thunderbird your TRASH will be cleaned automatically.
