Auto-delete junk mail folder

Hi. I'm tired of seeing the unread messages in my Junk Mail folder. Is there a way for them to auto-delete the moment they hit that folder?

MacOS Mail junk versus spam I regularly check my JUNK folder to restore legitimate emails which are often included, and then delete all the rest. But there are also SPAM folders which are independent of the Junk filter. How can I ensure that these unread spam emails are automatically moved to the Junk folder so I don’t have to scan the rubbish twice? If I manually move all the spam emails to Junk, will MAIL then remember that the spam emails are also junk and move them there automatically in future? Would they also retain the label SPAM which is visible in my smart mailbox for UNREAD mail? How does MAIL distinguish between JUNK and SPAM? If the Spam emails are registered externally by Apple, then I would feel confident in just deleting them all without even checking them, something I cannot do with Junk mail.

Why is there no "All Junk" folder in iOS Mail? A folder called "All Junk" that combines all the junk mail from different email accounts into one convenient location has existed in the Mac OS Mail program forever... ...but it has never (to my knowledge) existed in iOS. I would very much like to see this option available for times when I need to quickly sift through all my junk mail to search for messages that may have fallen through the cracks.

Where did my Mail junk folder go? In my Mail program, I don't see a Junk Folder. I have INBOX, DRAFTS, SENT and TRASH, in that order from the top, but there is no Junk folder listed. I checked in both Settings > Mail, and the settings in the Mail app itself, but can’t find where to get it back. Does anyone know where I can find it?

Has the user Ever Marked a Sender as Junk and some days later switched their mind and Un-Junked the Sender ?

Sometimes it was a Important Information from by Bank or Investment Advisor

If the User is 100% certain Junk is Junk

Use the Information below image

One Keyboard combo and presto - gone
