mark spam as read

[cabotine]

Hi,
is there a way to mark all spam as read when it gets moved to the spam-folder?
Thank you
C.

Why would you want to do that? It's meant to be an indication that there's unread mail there so the user can check for it being a false positive.

If you're really on Zimbra 4.5.4 I'd suggest you upgrade soon, that version is now unsupported.

Yeah, the point is I didnt have false positives for quite a while and I get distracted by the unread mail in the folder and so I have to mark it read manually and I have to spend time with spam.

Cabotine, take a look at Bug 12701 – Define a default filter rule for spam that users can apply before custom filters

The purpose of the bug has moved around somewhat, but (a) if implemented, I think it'll let you do a filter on "is spam" and then apply a "mark as read" action. And (b) if you're using 4.5.4, then you should have the pre-5.0.2 behavior, which applies filter rules before doing spam filing.

Although I wouldn't recommend staying on 4.5.4 nevertheless you could possibly use the "header named" filter action to look for X-Spam-Flag: YES and then mark the message as read.

If you are on a more recent ZCS then check out the zimbraSpamApplyUserFilters attribute as described at Bug 23886 – Run spam test before user filters during message delivery. But note that attribute may disappear at some point (or even have done so already).
