"And tell T-Bird to delete messages after a given number of days". I thought the term "delete" was self-explanatory. I don't think there is a way to recover them since if you look at the Account Setting you'd find the global settings which informs the user of its actions. Bottom line, it the messages aren't in Trash they are gone. In any event, it now sounds as if you want to move messages out of your "inbox" after a given period of time. For that, you'd use "Message Filters" located in Tools. _______________________________________________ users mailing list -- users@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx To unsubscribe send an email to users-leave@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx Fedora Code of Conduct: https://docs.fedoraproject.org/en-US/project/code-of-conduct/ List Guidelines: https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Mailing_list_guidelines List Archives: https://lists.fedoraproject.org/archives/list/users@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
