Hello, I find Thunderbird is identifying my spam pretty well but all it does is mark the "junk status" column. The messages still sit in my inbox. There must be a way to have these messages automatically sent to a folder, or to delete them, or...? I tried setting up a filter, but there is no option to select the "junk status" tag.

How can I automatically do something with my junk/spam messages, something more than just tag them?

Thanks!

This may be unnecessary, but since you didn't mention whether you had any junk settings, I'm sharing this URL for possible use: https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/thunderbird-and-junk-spam-messages
