Hello,
I have experienced following before some time:
movemail: number of messages in source mailbox: 5
movemail: number of processed messages: 5
movemail: number of errors: 0 / 0
;;; At this point I have lost Internet connection. The movemail was
waiting for long time, and when I came back to computer, I have
seen this below. However, none of messages was in the local
mailbox. The messages in the remote mailbox were deleted according
to the notices. The local mailbox is empty.
0 kept, 5 deleted.
movemail: mailbox `imaps://username:***@server:993/INBOX.box': cannot open:
Operation failed
movemail: mailbox `imaps://username:***@server:993/INBOX.box': cannot open:
Network is unreachable
The operation of movemail shall be changed so that unless all messages
are in local inbox, the remote shall not be deleted. I am not sure if
this assumption of mine is really so in the source code. That is based
on analyzis that I could not see any new messages in the inbox.
Jean Louis
