This is mainly a repost, since I still don't see a fix for it. However this is an important and urgent bug.
1) You recieve an email
2) You read & reply & delete
3) The mail is now in the Trash folder where it stays and takes up space
The only button listed under Trash forlder is to Restore it, sadly NOT empty it.
Please add this for 7.0.1 This is very important!!!

This is not a bug...... bad design, maybe.
I believe that messages are stored as a single database record. and appear in both the sender's and recipients mail folder's. You can't delete it from one, without deleting it from the other. So..... this isn't a bug that can be fixed.... it would require a lot of recoding of the mail system. My opinions expressed on this site, in no way represent those of Boonex or Boonex employees. |

So what you are saying is, we need to keep mail in the trash forever? Without being able to delet it?

I could be wrong, but that does appear to be the case. I remember someone from Boonex saying the exact same thing.

How about deleting message from Messages Table that are older than 30 days or something?
Do you think it will be useful if i write the code for you? Looking for Help? http://www.boonex.com/kevinmitnick |

You mean so that the Trash is on auto-empty every 30 days? But this is just a "sloppy fix" in a way.. I mean, how can you make a mail system that's saying no to deleting messages. That makes no sence....

If it was a bug, I would.... but it is designed to work this way. As long as the system uses a single database record for both the sender and recipient, you can't just delete it, without assuming both people want it deleted. So.... you can't do it that way. Maybe someone can dive into the code and come up with some clever work-around.

A simple work around is to add two extra fields to the table. Lets say field_sender and field_recipient. When one party deletes the message from trash, it flags his field and it is not shown to him again. When both fields are flagged (meaning both party wants to get rid of it) then the message is dropped. Of course some coding will be needed but let me know if this logic is logical :) Paypal email is jeromemingo@gmail.com - http://www.boonex.com/market/posts/modzzz |

Yes, this is logical. That's the way it should have been done to begin with.
