Re: [Evolution] Copies of messages not deleted on the server and multiple copies of the same downloaded

[Vincenzo * HI-Lab <vincenzo hi-lab net>]

Excuse me, maybe we explained myself badly.

Evolution has several accounts, but the log you saw refers to only one, the one that has the 16,259 messages not deleted on the server. The 16,259 messages were all regulary received and downloaded from server (when I deleted the directories you told me to delete) and I thought I solved all the problems. In fact, now, if I try to do "send and receive" it no longer downloads them, everything works fine and the log extract I sent refers to this proper operation. The problem is that the 16,259 messages (which they no longer download repeatedly) are still all there, on the pop3 server, and did not delete them. In the first of the two accounts that did not work instead he downloaded the messages and regularly deleted them. In this second. In this second, even if I no longer download duplicate messages, but the 16,259 messages are still all on the server...

I hope now that I have explained myself better.

Thanks!

Hi.

that seems to be supported by the log:

pop3_folder_maybe_expunge_cache: Recognized 0 downloaded messages

As the debug for the accounts overlap, it is kinda hard to know which

account is this for. I guess it's still trying to figure out the

listing of the all messages on the server, then it'll download them

("RETR 1234" in the log) and only then they will be shown under On This

Computer/Inbox.

As there are probably 16259+ messages in one of your accounts, I

suppose it'll take quite some time, depending on the server speed,

network speed and the messages' size.

You can run Evolution with the POP3 debugging on and click Send/Receive

button to initiate the download. Watch for the RETR commands in the

log.
