tb 115.6.0 (64-bit) debian 12 (stable)

hi everyone, i have multiple account. for some of them i use the unified folder view. with right click on the unified bin, then selecting empty folder, i expected that only the trash folders unified were empyed. but also the trash folder of others account are now empty. i think this may be a bug to solve. can someone confirm this behavior? thanks

If I highlight the unified trash folder, right-click and select empty, the trash folders that are unified are the only folders emptied. These folders can be viewed by a right-click on unified trash folder, select properties and then select 'choose.' This is working as designed on my PC.

thank you. i made another test. my unified trash folders are from pop accounts. but i confirm that also every trash of others imap accouts "not unified" were deleted. what's your tb version? maybe this issue is already solved.

thank you. i still have the issue. when chose empty bin, in the tb status bar appear messages from any account whose trash is not unified. i set a new account, not saving password in tb, not unified: emptying trash is asking for this new account password. i wait for an update in the repositeries, meanwhile i'll keep my trash.
