I am still persevering with Thunderbird junk mail procedures and it seems that the nominated junk mail can be gathered in a batch that does make deletion easier. I used to use mailwasher and as I recall it did have a good bulk delete junk mail system which was simple to set up. I will have to look into it again. No webmail solution that I am aware of.
The problem with Thunderbird and other applications these days it that investigation of possible "add on" facilities quickly gets you into "nerd" territory. I am not so interested in the "why" something is done rather than the "do" ie a simple step by step guide. I notice that the latest "upgrade" of Thunderbird gave little of extra interest to me but churned up the applications to make them even more difficult to access. I think that there are a lot of programmers with sometimes little to do rather than designing "elegant" but not necessarily user friendly software. Often the "improvements" mean that the software anticipates what you want to do, often wrongly. Give me back the old drop down menus!
