 mail_location = mbox:~/mail:INBOX=/var/mail/%u

Could be because of mbox. If the mbox UIDs change, the POP3 UIDLs
change. Dovecot should log errors if this happens though.

   pop3_logout_format = top=%t/%p, retr=%r/%b, del=%d/%m, size=%s

You could add , uidl=%u to this. It's intended to make it easier to
figure out if the UIDLs are changing or if the client is just being
broken. Then once someone redownloads messages, grep for their last
logout lines and show me what they contain (basically it'll say
uidl=old/new and previous line's new should match the next line's
old value).




[Dovecot] REpeated POP3 mail

2010-11-05 Thread The Doctor
I know I have brought this up before.

Question:  How can one debug the pop3 process from repeated e-mail ?

I am seeing this with M$ Outlook/OE/Mail/Entourage  Apple Mail.  

Can this be debugged?
