Thanks for the explanation. Is there a way to determine what behavior
to expect?
How would you reliably monitor mail (what's new and who's it from, what
flags changed
and what got expunged) without permanently affecting the Seen flag? Or
does that
not have a simple answer?

On W
I want to monitor mail from a functionally read-only client as I just
want to create a fancy biff.
It's been pointed out EXAMINE does not necessarily work for this as
untagged EXPUNGE/FETCH/EXISTS
responses are not forthcoming from all servers in read-only mode. In
searching through the archives
e what was happening.
Thanks again.

If I'm polling a server with NOOPs should I expect an EXISTS response
to be issued when the mailbox (INBOX)
changes (e.g. new mail?) I was counting on it (perhaps incorrectly) but
am not getting it from a particular imapd
of unknown origin:
