I understand that turning on adaptive junk filtering means that Thunderbird learns to detect junk messages as time goes on. If I DON'T select adaptive filtering then what happens?

  1. Potentially junk messages are not recognised as such and are treated like all other messages
  2. Thunderbird uses a fixed set of criteria to select what it thinks is junk, and then moves it as per the options selected.

Nothing happens. If you turn off the junk filtering Thunderbird does nothing. That does not however have an effect on the junk filtering done by your mail provider and I have a sneaking feeling that is at the heart of this request.

There appears to be something of an epidemic of folks not happy with their providers take on junk filtering. They complain about Thunderbird because they appear to have missed the synchronized part of their IMAP setup or expect what they set in Thunderbird will affect their mail provider. It does not! The email server is canonical in the synchronization, so Thunderbird will comply with the state of things on the mail server, not the other way around.
