I have noticed that sometimes email messages will appear in the
/Maildir/cur folder that have the format:
<number>.<number>.<machine>.<domain-name>;2,
I believe they also have ownership set to root:root.
When this happens, then email clients (such as Netscape) get "stuck" and
retrieve the same message over and over again. To "fix" this, I have to
copy the files back to the /Maildir/new folder, change ownership, and
remove the ":2," from the file name.
What is the purpose of the /Maildir/cur folder?
Why are email message left in this folder?
Is there a better way to handle this the next time it occurs?
