For the umpteenth time PowerMail chooses to re-download month old messages. I don't care that you're not supposed to leave messages on the server with POP mail because other clients using other accounts at the same provider (gmail in this case) do not exercise this problem and can for whatever reason get along with mail servers and if not they handle duplicates better.
I've had this problem for years and it cost me all the time I initially saved starting to use PM times 100 (at least). I bug reported this problem an related ones, listened in on the connection and made logs, analyzed the results and discussed them here on list. I never felt that CTM gave a toss despite repeated efforts on my part to express my willingness to cooperate with them to solve the problem - something that is a no-brainer in contact with other small developers - nor did I feel that this user community can replace CTM. For years I've seen that many people that ask for solutions for important problems got attacked. Very few people wanted to cooperate on finding solutions. I wrote then addressing the user community, though I never posted: "Is it really that hard to work together in order to create a community that could advance the usage of PowerMail, attracting new users and encourage the developers to consolidate and expand on the vision this app really has entrenched in its soul? Are PowerMail users a bunch of pessimists? I'd rather not think that, but subscribing to PowerMail users could easily give short-time depression." Anyway, I've had it. I'll look for a new client and export (on of the great features of PowerMail) what I need and that is it. I have life, a job and I can't be bothered any more. Bye!
