Hi, this is perhaps slightly off topic, if so I apologize.
I am moving/migrating maildrops from NT Mail to Unix, I have all the
details hammered out except that some clients will redownload all
the messages in the maildrop if the user has selected to leave mail
on the server... Outlook and Netscape at least but Eudora seems to
retain the status between servers... Fetchmail also seems to realise
that the messages have been read and should not be redownloaded.
So my question is how do clients determine the status of the maildrop?
Do they use TOP, UIDL, scan the Status header or X-UID[L] header or
some esoteric thing?
Thanks for any pointers.
