Hello!
I am trying to migrate from Teapop to Dovecot.
I'm using Dovecot 1.1.14.
I need to make use of the X-UIDL header so clients don't download
messages they've already received.
I have the X-UIDL head in the message.
I have pop3_reuse_xuidl(pop3): yes
My problem is the X-UIDL in the message is being ignored and Dovecot is
still generating it's own.
The INBOX is an mbx file not Maildir.
Should this work? Have I missed something?
Thanks!
Ben

Have I missed something?It should work, and it works in my test: printf 'From user at domain Wed Apr 22 13:48:08 2009\nX-UIDL: hello\n' > ~/mail/inbox telnet localhost pop3 .. uidl +OK 1 hello . One possibility could be that dovecot.index.cache has cached wrong UIDL. You could try deleting ~/mail/.imap/ directory. If that doesn't help, the only thing I can think of is that there really isn't a X-UIDL header or the setting really isn't somehow enabled.. -------------- next part -------------- A non-text attachment was scrubbed...
