I'd be willing to bet that it's your mail client. If you are using multiple mail clients, you probably have them set to "leave mail on server for x days?" When you do that, each mail client independently of one another has to keep track of which messages it has already downloaded; but all the messages (going back to x days) are still in residence on the server because the mail clients have been told to leave the messages. If the mail client gets confused (some sort of list corruption in the client) about which ones it has seen before; it will download them again, and again, and again... Proof: Before you are next in a situation where you are going to get duplicates, examine the actual file store on your Dovecot and see whether there are duplicates waiting to download. I use Cyrus; but typically in a pop/imap dual server the main Inbox for the imap portion is accessed when you POP in. In any event, if you see only single copies of each message going back x days, it's functioning correctly and you have to look at the client. Best solution: stop using pop and switch to imap. The only reason to use pop anymore is bandwidth. If you're still using dialup, imap is too slow. If you want to keep using pop and the Thunderbird index is corrupt, you will probably need to blow it away and have Thunderbird recreate it. I'm not entirely sure how best to do that; but if you created a new profile and just moved your local folders over from the old profile; that might do it. > Dovecot is POP/IMAP server. > > Thanks, > LDB > - -- Eric W.
