I'm trying to sync mail from an IMAP server to a /var/spool/mail/mbox [1]. The problem is, that mail_append[_full] will allways add a
Status: O to the mail, even if I pass an empty string to the function as "flags". The problem with this is that the mutt MUA interprets Status: O as an old message, that is != New message, which means that I'm unable to sync with an IMAP server in a way that will enable mutt to see new messages. I think mutt's behaveour is in accordance with RFC2076 which states that: O message is old but not deleted. That RFC also states that: N new (a new message also sometimes is distinguished by not having any "Status:" header. If I could achieve either of: * append a message with "Status: " without any flags * append a message without a "Status:" header at all * append a message with the flag "N" as in "Status: N" then I'd be done, but it doesn't seem that c-client can do any of those (?). If there is a way to achieve that I'd be glad if I could be pointed to the relevant source/docu. Otherwise I'd like to know if such functionality could be added to c-client? *t [1] mailsync.sf.net -- ----------------------------------------------------------- Tomas Pospisek SourcePole - Linux & Open Source Solutions http://sourcepole.ch Elestastrasse 18, 7310 Bad Ragaz, Switzerland Tel: +41 (81) 330 77 11 ----------------------------------------------------------- -- ------------------------------------------------------------------ For information about this mailing list, and its archives, see: http://www.washington.edu/imap/c-client-list.html ------------------------------------------------------------------
