Simplify the deletion of Mail's junk mail
It does work, but only if you have the Junk mail folder selected. The macro solution works from anywhere :).
But Rob,
Didn't you say your first step was to 'open the junk folder and scan the subjects?' After you move non-junk mail out of the folder, aren't you still in the junk folder?
But Rob,
I gave a simplified example :). For instance, there are times when I'll see some junk come in (via the activity monitor), and now I can just use the shortcut to make it vanish, without first changing folders.
But Rob,
Also, if you use Delete, the Junk moves from the Junk mail folder to the Trash folder. Using the menu command simply erases it all. I probably should have put this in the main hint.
Might seem like a minor issue…
…but your solution moves the selected to the Trash folder. The Erase Junk Mail command does what I want: it erases them, permanently. I really don't want all the Junk to end up filling up my Trash folder, making me have to deal with that more often. Yes, I could set Trash to empty on an automatic schedule, but I'm one of those that likes to have the option of going back and searching Trash for something I may want at a later date. |
