Running 0.81 outlook plugin with OutlookXP. Things
worked well for a day. The plugin now downloads and
processes mail, but does not remove email from the pop
server. I'm running my own mail server on Windows
Server 2003. Outlook is on the same machine as the
server.

    Quick follow-up. I'm running the source code version now.
    The problem of emails not being deleted also exists when I
    check a remote POP server. The mail stays on the server and
    is downloaded again and again to Outlook when I do a
    send/receive. IMAP seems to be okay.

    Can you please attach a log for a session where this
    happens. I'm hoping there is something in there related.

    I'm running the compiled Outlook add-in, and am having the
    same issue. However, it doesn't always do this.
    Occasionally it leaves messages so they get downloaded
    again, other times it deletes them.

    I'd still really like a log from a session where this happens

    I have this problem as well. I've found that in the following
    cases the email will not be removed from the server upon
    deletion:

    - categorized as spam
    - not categorized, trained as spam
    - suspected spam, trained as spam

    It will remove it when:

    - not categorized
    - suspected spam, not trained
    - suspected spam, trained as ham

    The only case I haven't tested is if it is categorized as spam
    and trained has ham. Basically, it looks like the message is
    altered when it is considered spam whether or not the "save
    spam score" is checked. I took a peak at the code, but didn't
    see anything obvious.

    Outlook 2000 on a W2K fully updated Laptop Pentium 2
    When closing Outlook which is configured for delete the files
    of the DELETED folder on the providers memory, no such
    delete at the providers happen anymore (some months now).
    The mass of spam-mails and the other DELETED-folders files
    have to be deleted manually at the provider.
    No multiple download of read messages occure here!
