Autodelete mail from 'empty'

Someone has already reported an account as a spammer and the account has been removed. Now all the emails out there show the sender as 'empty'. Why not just auto delete them or give us an option to do so?

I logged onto several rarely used alts the other day and had a ton of RM emails from empty that I had to delete.

You still get spam, whether your mail is on or off. And I love the OP's idea.

Actually, that's not what "empty" means. It means it was sent from a character that was deleted after sending the email. It was a trick that they used to use to avoid getting their accounts banned.

No.

Autodelete from banned accounts, yes. Give you a button to do so, sure. But I have emails from one or two friends who have left, deleting characters on their way out. Guess what they read as? (And that I want to keep on those characters - call it sentimental reasons. Can't export them, in any case.)

Can't say I've had that problem since I turned it off to anyone not on my list.
I leave myself unhidden and my email turned on specifically so that I get that pile of spammer email.

And every time I hit the button and see a character name and/or global that looks like someone paying for PLing and being used to send mail, it makes my day that much better.

To the OP, add me to the /signed list, provided you follow Bill's caveat.

If an account gets perma banned as a spammer sure. Non-spam bans are still handed out and some people might want those old emails.
