Hello Luther,
This one was quite difficult to understand.
For both of my mail accounts, I have the Mailbox Behaviors for
erasing deleted messages set to 'never'.
Is this for a pop or an imap account?
No other setting related to message deletion?
A couple of weeks ago I noticed that all messages in my Mail trash
has disappeared except for 'today' and 'yesterday'.
What do you mean by 'today' and 'yesterday'?
Intelligent (or clever; don't know the exact translation) mailboxes?
Mail rules?
Or?
And did you have the opportunity to look at what possibly happened on
the server side?
I feared that this may have been caused by testing a script that
modified mailbox Behaviors, so I have not since run that script. The
script did seem to be working correctly, however. (OS X 10.6.1 and
Mail 4.1)
And how did that script modify maibox behaviors?
I guess we can't guess without some help of yours... ;-)
Nevertheless, every few days, at about mid-day, everything in Trash
except 'today' and 'yesterday' is erased. (Fortunately, I do backup
everyday.)
I have checked the preference file "com.apple.mail.plist", but found
no problem.
(Except there is a key 'IndexTrash' = true whose meaning I don't
know.)
Seems to be related to Mail's general preference: search into trash
mailbox as well.
Has anyone experienced a similar problem with messages erasing from
the Trash when it should not?
No, not here. Unless some overlooked setting is acting (depending on
the account type, deletion doesn't necessarily happen immediately, so
as to allow the user to undo some erroneous action).
Does anyone know what 'IndexTrash' is?
See above.
Axel
