Technically this isn't a 'problem'... well... it is a problem in respect to downloading mail, as you get duplicates, however it isn't a problem in respect to what is defined as the rules for the protocol. ,----- [ UIDL ] | While it is generally preferable for server implementations to store | arbitrarily assigned unique-ids in the maildrop, this specification is | intended to permit unique-ids to be calculated as a hash of the | message.
