Beside the fact Christophe already denied your assumption let me correct you: The Bat! _does not_ download the headers of an e-mail if you've set "Leave messages on server". It decides wether to fetch or to ignore a mail in that setup by inspecting the output of "UIDL" command, which only gives a list of server generated UIDs, one per message, and ideally the server generates the same UID for the same message when asked another time. If he doesn't you get every message until you delete it from server manually. But in no case The Bat! uses the headers to decide if a message was already downloaded, headers are only fetched when "selective download" is aktive of message dispatcher is invoked. -- Regards, Pit ________________________________________________ Current version is 1.62 | "Using TBUDL" information: http://www.silverstones.com/thebat/TBUDLInfo.html
