Now how did it do that. It looked fine when it was originally posted.
Anyway, this is what I think I've found. Mail recognises junk in the main inbox, but not in my sub mailboxes.
I have rules set to move messages from the inbox to my other mail boxes, depending on the address etc. I'm guessing that because the mail in Panther filters junk as the last rule, that if you move mail out of the inbox, it's no longer checked for junk. Can anyone tell me if I'm correct here. If that's the case, is there a way to make it check for junk first, and then move things, or to check for junk in more than one inbox.
After all this, mail has just started crashing on me as soon as I open it, so I'm off searching the forums again for some answers,
Cheers,
J.

Yep, I'd done that, and it was still crashing on me.
I've done a few reboots and killed the plist. Rebuilt the mail accounts and it seems to be stable for now. I'll see what it does over the next few hours.
If it stays stable we'll see what it does with the junk. Been a busy hour of typing. It's at least been very stable up until this afternoon and then just went haywire.
Cheers,
J.

Yeah they decided they needed to actively make mail.app more retarded...
So they hid the junk rule and moved it to the end, and they had it respect the 'stop applying rules' check box. So if you sort your email you don't get a junk rule.
So make a new rule, have it choose if mail is junk and sender is not in your address book and sender is not in your previous recipients and then have it stop checking rules.

[edit: and put it at the top (and move the message to junk)]
