POP3 issues

Using Notes as SMTP/POP3 client I have 3 problems: 1. Notes shows the DeliveredDate (which is the date the Notes client got the mail) while other mail clients (e.g. Evolution, Thunderbird) show the date when the mail reached the POP3 server and which is much more valuable if you synchronize only occasionally. My workaround: an agent setting @SetField(“DeliveredDate”; @TextToTime(@Text(PostedDate)));

  1. In the POP3 account document you can set “leave mail on server”. But if you do that you’ll get ALL mails on the pop3 server each time you synchronize. So “leave mail on server” doesn’t make sense with a Notes client until this behaviour has been corrected.

  2. After replicating manually with a POP3 server I have to press the F5 key because the view doesn’t refresh automatically.

Problem 1: date/time issue has been working like that since day 1 and there has been sprs on it but it can be a new enhancement request for future.

Problem 2: pop3 mail pulled again issue needs a Notes.ini ‘pop3dontcacheentries=0’ to avoid duplicate messages from being pulled again.

Problem 3: pop3 won’t cause inbox to auto refresh issue is not reproducible in wct85_10042008 build.
