New submission from Charalampos Nikolaou <char.nikol...@gmail.com>: I would like to report a misbehaviour on the fetch command of imaplib when used with mailboxes that have been opened as read-only. In such cases, when you fetch a message (using for instance RFC822), the mail is not marked as read (i.e., the flag of the respective message is not set to 'seen'). I have only tested with IMAP over SSL with the server of my organization on which I don't have administration permissions and gmail.
System details ---------------- Python: 2.5, 2.6, 2.7.2, 3.0, 3.1, 3.2 Server: Cyrus IMAP4 v2.1.18 and imap.gmail.com Pseudocode to reproduce the problem: --------------------------------------- imap = imaplib.IMAP4_SSL(imap_server) imap.connect(user, pass) imap.select(mailbox, readonly=True) imap.search(None, 'Unseen') imap.fetch(mid, 'RFC822') imap.close() imap.logout() After executing the above code, the message with id mid will not have been marked as read, while it should have been. Other relevant information: ----------------------------- Access List for my readonly mailbox: group:1 lrsw group:2 p group:3 lrsp group:4 lrswip group:5 lrswipd group:6 lrswipd group:7 lrsw group:8 lrsw group:9 p group:10 p group:11 lrsp group:12 lrsp group:13 lrswip group:14 lrswip group:15 lrswipd group:16 lrswipd group:17 lrswipd group:18 lrswipd I have to mention that the above access list is the same with the one of another mailbox which is read/write. I mention this just to make clear that the access list does not play any role in this problem. Hope I haven't forgotten anything. In any case, ask me. ---------- components: Library (Lib) messages: 148060 nosy: char.nikolaou priority: normal severity: normal status: open title: imaplib, fetch: improper behaviour on read-only selected mailboxes type: behavior versions: Python 2.6, Python 2.7, Python 3.1, Python 3.2 _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue13446> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
