Thank you Michael. I always get a little paranoid when someone shouts 'data-loss', I have a couple of clients who use pop3 all the time and would /really/ freak out if this happened. Of course if someone is running a client that does 'DELE', that's their problem. Or simply don't run dbmail-util that often. Let them shout murder, and you save the day by resetting the status field. If you are really concerned about loosing email: do not run dbmail-util -py. -- ________________________________________________________________ Paul Stevens paul at nfg.nl NET FACILITIES GROUP GPG/PGP: 1024D/11F8CD31 The Netherlands________________________________http://www.nfg.nl _______________________________________________ DBmail mailing list [email protected] https://mailman.fastxs.nl/mailman/listinfo/dbmail
