A script to delete DELETED0.TXT Mail.app messages
Authored by: balakera on Apr 23, '04 01:09:25PM

Forgive my ignorance,

But how would one set a rule to run before Junk rule? I cannot find a way to do that (10.3.3). In Junk Mail prefs there does not seem to be a way to add a rule to the advanced option. And in Rules, how do I know where to put my rule so it runs before Junk rule?

Thanks

Rules are executed in order, top to bottom in the rule list. You can change the order of the rules by dragging them in the list with the mouse.

You are right, I also do not have the junk mail rule listed under rules. Probably, since I adjusted to move the junk mail automatically to the junk mail folder.

Anyway, I added the action perform apple script to the junk mail rule in the junk preferences and added an additional rule perform apple script in the rules section.

Rules run in the order that they are in in the list. So the first rule on the list will run first. Just click and drag rules up and down to move them around the list.
