What's the use of marking as "Junk" in Mozilla Thunderbird?
I have a few Mails that keeps being mailed to my email address. I keep marking these mails as "Junk" but after more than 9 months they keep appearing directly in my emails folder.
On the other hand, I have a few email addresses that I have marked as "Not Junk" and they keep being send to my "Spam" box.
Think I will change my email provider soon and leave Mozilla firefox for what it is (fill in what I think ....)

Marking them as junk does not prevent the sender from continuing to send them. From my experience, I sometimes have messages marked as spam from the server, before receipt by Thunderbird. That can cause what seems a contradiction, where 'not junk' mail appears as spam.
In Google, when I mark a message as "Spam", the sender does NOT APPEAR in my INBOX anymore. In MicroSoft Mail, a sender who is marked as "SPAM" does not appear in my INBOX anymore. In Thunderbird, I can mark as sender as Spam, but this marking as SPAM does 2 time nothing. Every message from that sender keeps appearing in my INBOX althoufg the sender has been marked as SPAM.
What Thunderbird uses in a filter for junk; this is not a SPAM checker for undesirables, and it is not built for a 'once and done' approach, as SPAM checkers are.
