hi folks,

I've recently acquired a problem with getmail.  Most of the time it
works fine -- it downloads my messages, leves them on the server for
two days, and then delet them.  But every so often -- once every ouple
of days -- it will re-download the whole mailbox (which uually has
about 1500 messages in it by that time).


this is becoming a pain!

so I wonder what's causing it.  I lookedi n my .getmail/log, and I see
no indication of anything wrong -- all that happens is that, suddenly,
all the messages get reloaded.

In the getmail FAQ, it's suggested that this kind of problem usually
has to do with a broken POP server -- though even that would be aa
strange explanation, since the mafunciton is episodic and
unpredictable.  Also, I'm pretty sure the probblem first arose when I
upgraded to Sid, found that getmail 3.1 wouldn|t work with my
popserver account, and then DOWNGRADEd back to 2.7.  

So, anyones seen this behavior before?  Any suggestions on how to fix it?

matt
