I'm sorry if this is the wrong place to post, but I can't find any documentation that explains how to solve this problem and I don't know where else to look for help.
I have RH 9.0 setup as a mail server (both imap and pop3). I have a windows machine running Outlook Express which retrieves mail via pop3. In addition, I'm running SquirrelMail 1.4.1 on the Linux system to read email via the web. Everything worked fine until 1 week ago. At that point, I started getting duplicated emails delivered to Outlook Express. I also see a message in my log file as follows: Oct 2 12:15:04 gateway ipop3d[8490]: Message 186 UID 361 greater than last 189 And a similar message mailed to me from logwatch as follows: --------------------- ipop3d Begin ------------------------ **Unmatched Entries** Message 186 UID 361 greater than last 189: 1 Time(s) ---------------------- ipop3d End ------------------------- I read the imap FAQ in section 7.14 which basically says, "don't worry about this," but I'm getting a ton of duplicate email delivered to me everyday. The only way I can stop it is if I set Outlook Express to delete all read messages - which doesn't allow me to use SquirrelMail. (I have Outlook Express configured to delete messages after 3 days.) I understand that message UID order is somehow mixed up, but I don't know how to fix it. Any suggestions? Mark ps. I tried to post this to the group yesterday, but I don't think it went out, so I'm trying again. I hope it isn't duplicated for anyone. -- ----------------------------------------------------------------- For information about this mailing list, and its archives, see: http://www.washington.edu/imap/imap-list.html -----------------------------------------------------------------
