Thunderbird.. again
I like it better than Outlook overall, but I do find that the spell checker is terrible. And obviously, there is no grammar checker.
Does anyone know if this will be improved upon in future updates? Also, I have it set to "delete" anything that I have marked as junk. But it seems to only put it in the Trash. Is there a way for it to automatically delete the email all together?

Re: Thunderbird.. again
I don't intend to hijack this thread but since you brought up the topic of Thunderbird:
Is there any way to free up the disc space after removing the message from a folder. My trash is empty and still show 147MB. Inbox size also includes messages that have been long deleted/moved from it.

Re: Thunderbird.. again
I think that's because they are actually stored in another folder. I know that's true for the email addresses. It's in "my documents" somewhere.

Re: Thunderbird.. again
Have you compacted the folder after deleting everything? I just tried mine and found...
Folder with two items in it: 2038 kb Folder with two items deleted: 2038 kb Folder after compacting: 0 kb Right-click on the folder and select Compact Folder. Be prepared to wait a bit...  Check in your Account Settings for the location of the folders. They may not be where you think they are...

Re: Thunderbird.. again
Thanks Bungleau, that was that.
You can also set it to do so automatically in advanced options.

Re: Thunderbird.. again
Glad to hear it. I'll take a look in my advanced options so it happens automatically... I get a lot of stuff in my work email accounts...
