Mac Forum / Applications / Eudora / April 2004Junk and IMAP
I looked around at groups.google.com and realized that the Eudora 6 betas didn't support junk filtering of mail accessed through IMAP, however I thought this was fixed with the release of Eudora 6? Anyway, I just got a new IMAP-account and as far as I can tell, the two first mail I received there got a (low - they where not spam) junk score but since then no other mails I have received seems to have been analyzed for junk. Does anyone know if junk filtering should work with IMAP - and if that is the case, what I am doing wrong? Thanks  SignatureA: Because it messes up the order in which people normally read text. Q: Why is top-posting such a bad thing? A: Top-posting. Q: What is the most annoying thing on usenet and in e-mail? > I looked around at groups.google.com and realized that the Eudora 6 > betas didn't support junk filtering of mail accessed through IMAP, [quoted text clipped - 7 lines] > Does anyone know if junk filtering should work with IMAP - and if that > is the case, what I am doing wrong? When the first Eudora 6 beta was released, Junk filtering worked on my IMAP account. At some point, they stopped supporting *certain* IMAP protocols, but it's back again in 6.1. It's working pretty well at this point, but SpamAssassin stops a lot of my spam at the server level.

Ours here doesn't, so Junk filtering doesn't work at all with Eudora under IMAP. Luckily, "Brightmail" catches a lot of spam, so we can set up a filter for IMAP users. - Steve > Your IMAP server has to support UIDPLUS. It is an Exchange (not my responsibility…) server I connect to, do you know if they support this? SignatureA: Because it messes up the order in which people normally read text.

I believe Exchange servers have UIDPlus as part of their IMAP spec, but don't quote me on this. If the IMAP server *doesn't* have UIDPLUS, Eudora gives you an error message about it when you try to set up Junk mailboxes, etc... - Steve > If the IMAP server *doesn't* have UIDPLUS, Eudora gives you an error > message about it when you try to set up Junk mailboxes, etc... What do you mean by 'set up junk mailboxes' etc, isn't this mostly an automatic process? Can I redo this process to verify the existence of UIDPLUS?

Sorry for my last message. I have verified that it indeed supports UIDPLUS: % telnet mail.mimer.kth.se 143 Trying 130.237.17.14... Connected to bestla.mimer.kth.se. Escape character is '^]'. * OK Microsoft Exchange Server 2003 IMAP4rev1 server version 6.5.6944.0 (bestla.mimer.kth.se) ready. 1 login abc 123 1 OK LOGIN completed. 2 capability * CAPABILITY IMAP4 IMAP4rev1 IDLE LOGIN-REFERRALS MAILBOX-REFERRALS NAMESPACE LITERAL+ UIDPLUS CHILDREN 2 OK CAPABILITY completed. but Eudora's junk filter still does not work. Why? It works with other IMAP accounts I have as well as with the only POP-account I use. SignatureA: Because it messes up the order in which people normally read text.
