hi all! i think i have a problem with my fetchmail (config). i use it to get all the email from my various accounts. in the .fetchmailrc in my home dir i put something like this: poll MAILSERVER protocol IMAP user "MAILBOXUSERNAME" password "THESECRET" is LOCALUSER keep this runs perfect expect that the fetchmail daemon is deleting the messages in the remote server's inbox. i read in the manual that deleteing is the default action and adding "keep" should keep the messages on the remote side. i tried it and fetchmail recognizes that the config has changed by diplaying this: fetchmail: restarting fetchmail (/home/USER/.fetchmailrc changed) Both fetchall and keep on in daemon mode is a mistake! fetchmail: starting fetchmail 6.3.4 daemon and it still gets the messages and deletes them from remote server. i wonder about this behavoiur of fetchmail cause if i use IMAP than i want the messages to stay on the server, not getting them deleted! why cant i use daemon mode and the keep option? is there a possibility to fix this?? thx in advance snIP3r |

Can we see the file (munge username and password)? "Something like"
isn't good enough.
The output of "fetchmail --nosyslog -v -v" is also necessary and
"fetchmail --configdump" would help (remember to munge username and
password).

This isn't normal for the config you're talking about - I poll an IMAP
server with keep and it doesn't delete the messages.
The possibilities are that either you've not got a valid configuration
or the remote server is doing something it shouldn't. The information
I've asked for will help identify which.
(Oh, and I'd suggest you read the FAQ, which details what you should
provide when reporting something you think is a bug).

here it is:
poll MAILSERVER1 protocol IMAP user "MAILBOXUSER1" password "PWD1"
is LOCALUSER keep
poll MAILSERVER2 protocol POP3 user "MAILBOXUSER2" password "PWD2" ssl
is LOCALUSER

Looks fine.

Should have been more explicit - can you provide that for a run
showing a mail being downloaded. That way we can confirm fetchmail's
actions.

Thanks, that shows your config is basically ok.

Should be able to - the log showing a mail being downloaded from the
IMAP server will tell me.
