Re: [Evolution] Duplicate Messages

[Jeffrey Stedfast <fejj ximian com>]

You're not exactly providing any useful information here.

Are you using POP? Are you using Filters? Are you sure your filters
aren't duplicating the messages?

Ie, if you have filters and use the Copy or Move rules and don't use a
Stop-Processing rule, then you could end up duplicating messages that
way since without that Stop-Processing rule, evolution continues to run
the rest of the filters on that message.

If your using POP, I suspect that your POP server:
1. does not support UIDL, thus forcing us to generate our own UIDs by
md5summing the headers.
2. Your POP server is changing the headers after we download the entire
message and thus the next time we check, the md5sums don't match.
