I got a case that I haven't been able to resolve. I hope somebody can give me some hints.
One of our users is reporting emails disappearing in front of his eyes,
(Right ... emails filters at the client side ....)
Server does not have global sieve filter enabled (no file present), even though this configuration is present: sieve_global_path=/vmail/globalsieverc
User does not have any sieve scripts enabled at the server side.
Ok,
- The user shuts down his apple mail software, his Iphone, and the Web interface:
2010-03-11 15:52:57 IMAP(my_user@mydomain.com): Info: Connection closed bytes=2188/6499 2010-03-11 15:52:57 IMAP(my_user@mydomain.com): Info: Connection closed bytes=3887/7336 2010-03-11 15:52:57 IMAP(my_user@mydomain.com): Info: Connection closed bytes=5873/68309 2010-03-11 15:52:57 IMAP(my_user@mydomain.com): Info: Disconnected in IDLE bytes=4514/547136
He generates the troublesome emails from a notification system in Craiglist .... We can see the email hitting the inbox (we also see in Postfix this email going to Dovecot) 2010-03-11 15:54:48 deliver(my_user@mydomain.com): Info: From=noreply@craigslist.org : msgid=20100311205447.0C0FE118B04@web8p.int.craigslist.org : saved mail to INBOX

Who is deleting this email ? I can see the flag $Junk ... perhaps some filter somewhere is seeing that flag and proceeding to delete it. If I understand sieve filters at the server side, they will act in the deliver process. So once the email is saved into INBOX, sieve filters will not count. Am I right?
Any Hints?
