Watching Airmail 3 Trash Mon Jun 19, 2017 10:36 am • by tonycr46
I like to maintain about a 3-month backlog of deleted messages in my Airmail trash (just in case I delete something and realize later that I needed it). Is there a way Hazel can track the messages and remove them from the Airmail trash? Not sure if Airmail keeps a discrete folder or if they're "wrapped up" in some other format.

Thanks.

Not familiar enough with AirMail though in general it's a bad idea to have Hazel manipulate an app's files out from underneath it. I'm surprised AirMail doesn't have functionality of its own to do this.

Me, too. I once asked them to provide an option that would delete files that were earlier than X amount of time. Apparently fell on deaf ears. Maybe time to do another feature request.

Thanks for the reply.
