Package: getmail4 Version: 4.8.4-1 Getmail4 is logging at verbosity level 1 (I think, maybe 2) instead of 0, which is what I have set in my configuration file. The log file looks like this:
2009-09-06 04:50:02 Initializing SimpleIMAPSSLRetriever:[email protected]:993: 2009-09-06 04:50:08 msg 1/4560 (9999 bytes) msgid 3/Inbox/1443 not retrieved (seen) and repeats the last message for all 4560 emails in my inbox, a number which of course only grows with time. This occurs on every fetch, as far as I can tell. My configuration file has verbosity set to 0. I have a log file from January that did not have this problem, but the rest have been rotated out due to an extremely bloated size; so, I cannot determine exactly when this problem started occurring. At least a couple of weeks ago, as best as I can tell. No changes to my configuration were made in that time. The old log file would simply indicate that it was initializing the retriever, with the occasional error message when an error occurred. Dependent software versions: python 2.5.4-2 python-support 1.0.3 I am running Debian squeeze. Command in cron to run the retrieval: getmail --rcfile /home/james/.getmail/getmailrc.gm My configuration file: [retriever] type = SimpleIMAPSSLRetriever server = imap.gmail.com username = sams.james password = ********* mailboxes = ("Inbox",) [destination] type = MDA_external path = /usr/bin/procmail [options] verbose = 0 read_all = false message_log = /var/log/mail/sams.james.log I believe that constitutes all the relevant information you need. --james -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [email protected] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
