old recycle bin bug - not yet resolved
An old recycle bin bug that I reported a few years ago is still unresolved with the 7.12.49 update where the Recycle Bin shows the deleted spam but displays no evaluation record. The size of all the messages are also shown as 1kb.
The bug can be replicated by setting an option in the user account to "MOVE DELETED MESSAGES INTO FOLDER" to "Spam" or "Junk Mail" or whatever your IMAP designates as the spam folder. This setting is found on the INCOMING tab of a user account that is set to IMAP. POP does not have the move feature.
Although this does not affect the functionality of Mailwasher, it does make it impossible to determine the performance of the filters.

Re: old recycle bin bug - not yet resolved
I have seen this too, and I'm on POP3 email.
However, it is NOT for all my Recycle bin items. ONLY those that fall into the GRAY area on the Overall Evaluation. 'Good' ones I've manually deleted all show as Green lines, and ones that the filters caught are RED and the name of the filter. However, the 'neutral' ones show nothing. My file sizes are different too.
What 'might' be missing or a bug, at least in my case, is 'why' the message was put there (the 2 specific gray lines)? It is possible that the filter name, which is missing might have details to show why it did it and not mark it? Note, both of those lines were NOT a ZERO evaluation but they were slightly negative. First a -18, second a -29.
I've tried searching my filters and can't find any that would make these go in the bin, but I agree they should based on content. I might have even done it manually?
However, as you can see, I see the same basically but I am not using IMAP so IMAP might not be the cause?
EDIT:
I just looked after I posted... I see others from that domain are RED. It has to be the content then.
BOTH when selected show this in the window:
--14d8785792157a96f7a3de9986cd374255cbb8c79c81c6300badee7460ae
--14d8785792157a96f7a3de9986cd374255cbb8c79c81c6300badee7460ae
The source does have HTML though. Can't 'show' it in the bin as show in HTML is not available.
