[Email Client] Capability to mark email as spam

Im not sure I understand this proposal: The technical difference between "Move to folder [foldername]" and "Makr as spam" in a mail client is usually that the latter influences a learning spam filter. The Jolla mail client doesn't have a spam filter. What you would end up with is having two "Move to folder" commands in the context menu. Is there anything I miss?

Its a matter of usability; From a user perspective:

move to folder

• Select mail
• Press & hold
• Select move to folder
• Select folder (out of list of folders)

move to spam

• Select mail
• Press & hold
• Mark as spam.

Can you see the difference in usability there? In the second case, The users does NOT

• have to know his spam folder
• have to search for it

The fact that there is a move to folder option does in fact legitimate the functionality, But not the usability in my opinion.plus, mark as spam is definitively more intuitive than move to folder.

@tortoisedoc now I understand. It's a shortcut. - OK, maybe it makes sense that way. Still, I wonder how they'd implement this. At least the user can guess what the spam folder on the server side. AFAIK the mail client can't, so they'd meke the user choose one spam folder per account that this aciton will apply to and not present the action if the user didn't choose a folder (because maibe there isn't one).

Difficult to implement. Nice, though, if it works.

exactly; but withe the users help you can define the spam folder client side (once) and you are ready to go. In particular, it could be done with the RFC posted by NielDK below

Surely the intention of marking as spam is to trigger some learning process to identitfy future spam, otherwise just marking it is pointless.
