I'm not sure of the exact mechanics but I'm sure that it not only
depends on TB! but also on the server software. TB! is unable to keep
track of what is downloaded from what is not with some servers.

I've had this problem of TB! redownloading already downloaded mail
occurring when the download routine in interrupted for some reason, in
my case a disconnection.

Yes, I see what you're saying. It gets corrupted when the download times
out? :=)
