I’ve been using Thunderbird to sort out my junk email for a while, ever since I walked away from my Gmail account. Thunderbird does a great job, but it does mean it has to stay running somewhere.
However I’m currently in the process of moving and as a result I’ve had to shut down the system that that I had been running Thunderbird on. The result of which, obviously, is that my inbox is now being flooded with spam.
Since it’s been a while since I last looked at the problem, I figured I ask. How do you deal with spam email?
Sure, not widely supported, but if you use clients supporting it, it is great. Blazingly fast, while IMAP is always slow.
Also, Thunderbird is working on JMAP support: https://blog.thunderbird.net/2025/09/state-of-the-thunder-mozilla-connect-updates/
