--- Comment #1 from Stefano Zamboni <[email protected]> ---

did some tests.. 
fetchmail stores the ids of fetched emails in /var/lock/fetchmail/.fetchids
file (/var/lock/fetcmail is defined in /etc/startmail file as FETCHMAILHOME)

setting up an account with FM-Ghost=YES and  FM-KeepOption=YES flags works as
desired, but if I reboot the server, the .fetchids file is deleted and
recreated on the next run, so that all the mail are fetched again.

tried editing /etc/fetchmail file using the -i flag, i.e from

/usr/bin/fetchmail -l75000000 -d0 --verbose --syslog --fetchmailrc - <<


to 

/usr/bin/fetchmail -l75000000 -d0 --verbose --syslog -i /mynewpath/.fetchids
--fetchmailrc - <<


where mynewpath is something like (example) /var/lib/fetchmail, with
qmailr:qmail owner
moved .fetchids to the new location, tried running startmail.. everything is ok 
then rebooted the server and checked the file is still here 

so, here are my questions:
- I dind't find where the file is deleted.. is it something related to
/var/lock?
- am I missing anything?
