Enum JunkMailInclusion

Namespace

MailFathom.Application.Emails.Mailboxes

Assembly

MailFathom.Application.dll

Says whether a mailbox read reaches into the account's junk folder.

public enum JunkMailInclusion

Fields

Excluded = 0

Return nothing from the account's junk folder, which is what a caller that asked for nothing gets.

Included = 1

Return the junk folder's mail alongside everything else, because the caller asked for it.

Remarks

Excluding it is the default because of what the folder holds rather than because of what MailFathom concluded: mail in it is there because the provider or the owner put it there, and it is disproportionately content written to deceive whoever reads it — which now includes an agent answering questions about the mailbox. It is true of the mailbox with no scanner deployed and with nothing ever classified, which is why the exclusion is a property of a mailbox read rather than of the classification feature.

The override is the caller's and is deliberately explicit. A caller looking for a message the provider filed wrongly has to be able to find it, and a result that quietly omitted a whole folder would leave them concluding the message is gone.
