Look at the getPOP3Messages() method (in IssueTracker.py, ca. line 2850). It has a parameter called dele=1 Check that that is really set to 1. A bit further down the code in that same method you'll see that it does:: pop3instance.dele(i+1) Doesn't that take effect on your system? >Also, as a suggestion, would it be possible that when an Issue gets created >that way, the sender automatically received an acknowledgment by e-mail with >the URL of the newly created issue (like a temporary notifyables :-) ? Such >type of interaction with the requester is usually a big seller... Have thought of that, but haven't done it yet. It would have to be an optional thing. Some companies might not want to expose their issue tracker to the public, so their senders shouldn't be allowed to know of the URL. >I really like the new "Change issue properties" feature, really cool.
