IMAP leaves messages on the server, all the folders are on the server. Precedure: go through messages and delete them one by one (sometimes by groups) Problem: every so often, NEW MAIL arrives and the messages just deleted reappear in the INBOX (while remaining in the TRASH). Problem with problem: not systematic. It has happend, so far, 4 times in three days, the last (20 minutes ago, I have since searched bug reports) I was down to 1200 messages and the 59 just deleted reappeared. Reproducible: Sometimes Steps to Reproduce: See details above Actual Results: See details above Expected Results: Keep deleted messages in the Trash and not get them again. Sorry, I know how hard it is to track intermittent errors. Even harder than having to go through the huge file message by message several times because of the bug (I am grinning here, I do realise the difficulty).
still having problems using latest TB?
