Hi I get this message from about 2 or 3 different email accounts every day.

This is an encrypted OpenPGP message. In order to decrypt this mail, you need to install an OpenPGP add-on.

this is all the body reads and I defiantly do not want to read any part of it. I did set the filter to delete any message with this in the body. I know its spam but I dont even want thunderbird to take it from the server.

What I am saying is that I dont want to even see this in my junk folder just delete the message I have this in my filter and it still seems to bypass this

re :I did set the filter to delete any message with this in the body. I know its spam but I dont even want thunderbird to take it from the server.

You mention 'Junk' folder so I'm presuming you are talking about a POP mail account. POP mail accounts can only access the server Inbox and download whatever is in that folder.

If you have set up a filter in the webmail account via a browser then it is possible to filter that email out of the 'Inbox' into 'Spam' folder, so Thunderbird cannot download it. Then set webmail 'Spam' to auto empty periodically.

re: Message Filter in Thunderbird Is it running when 'getting new mail' AND 'Filter after Junk Classification'

Generally, you train Thunderbird to recognise junk/spam mail and it all goes into 'Junk' folder if pop or 'Spam' if imap. Then you can scan the 'Junk' folder in case a good email goes to the wrong folder and then right click on folder and select 'Empty Junk'. You can also set up your Account Settings for mail account > Junk Settings, to automatically delete anything older than x days from Junk.

So if your Message Filter is not deleting and email ends up in Junk folder then you need to adjust the Message Filter to scan before junk classification.
