Hi,
Following is a brief explanation of the setup:
1. Mail for the users of a domain "mdomain.com" is sent to
one common mailbox "A" on server "mailserver"
The mailserver supports only POP3
2. I use fetchmail to pick up my email and process it for
all users using procmail, which takes care of a lot of
things.
My ".fetchmailrc" file:
*********************************************************
set invisible
defaults proto pop3
no envelope
smtphost localhost
poll mailserver localdomains mydomain.com:
aka isp.server
user A with pass x
mda "/usr/bin/procmail"
*********************************************************
MY PROBLEM:
* If a mail is sent to 5 users, 5 copies of the same mail
are kept on the server.
* Currently after fetching one copy, i am able to determine
who the other 4 recipients are.
* Also, based on the "Message-ID" tag, if i do download the
other 4 copies, i can succesfully delete them using procmail
without causing a duplicate distribution.
** BUT i have to download the remaining 4 copies !!!!!!!
is there a way to avoid this ????
Does fetchmail have a capability of detecting a previously
downloaded message (based on Message-Id) ???????????
Your ideas/comments would be appreciated !!
Thanks,
Mark.
