Description Matti Bickel (RETIRED) gentoo-dev 2006-03-06 14:40:19 UTC
I've emerged fetchmail on ppc, set up my accounts (imap) with the "keep" option. After a couple of fetches my inbox was flooded by numerous mails, all duplicates. Fetchmail kept downloading them and a inspection of the remote mailbox showed that the mails were left marked unread. Thus fetchmail got them as new every turn.

I encountered the problem only with 6.2.5.2-r1, upgrading to 6.3.2-r1 fixed the problem. So far i've no issues with it, so i'd recommend marking it stable as a workaround/fix.

Arch teams, can you please mark 6.3.2-r1 stable? It would be best if we got rid of 6.2* as soon as possible. Thanks.
