Settings?
Can anyone explain why TB duplicates the choices for Tools > Account Settings > Junk Settings > Global Junk Preferences with those of Tools > Options? I these entries conflict which take precedence? I would think entering the choices once would suffice.
Chosen solution
Global settings and per account settings. They amount to the same thing when you have a single mails account. But I have many. So the global setting apply to new accounts, but if I want to over ride the settings on a per account basis I can.
The global button in account settings is simply provided as a shortcut to the global setting so you do not have to trawl through a long list of menus to get there via options. That is why both open an identical dialog
The same as account settings can be accessed about four different ways.
- Right click in the folder pane
- Tools > account settings
-
> Options > account settings
- The account central mage that is displayed when you click the account in the folder pane.
So to other options have multiple way of getting to them
