Yes, the bug report was for that part of the problem itself. I have new-only
defined in my settings, but still it downloaded the same emails again..
here's my settings:
account "company-pop3" disabled pop3
server "company.hostname.com"
user "rrs"
pass "password"
new-only cache "${base}/company-cache"
keep
"keep" was the only new keyword I added today. Otherwise everything was there
before. But still it re-downloaded messages. I am going to test it again
tomorrow to confirm the behavior.
BTW, does the cache expire ever ?
