Hello Timo,
This is mail store specific. With maildir the seen flag is stored in maildir file name (http://cr.yp.to/proto/maildir.html), with mbox it's stored in R flag in Status-header.
Like "Status: RO" in Header? Hmm. I tried setting all Messages in my INBOX as read, but grepping for this "grep '^Status:' /vat/mail/adam" only returned "Status: RO".
I don't know what you mean by message priority. That's most likely a client-specific variable which is never even sent to IMAP server.
Of course it it, also on wire: I meant the "SPAM-Priority-Flags" ;-). Formerly, at least, I often could identify Spam just by checking for this flags, beeing either "high", or "low" for spam but never used for normal mail. :-)
How this flags are called "officially"?
My goal is to mark spam or other filtered by procmail as "seen", so that dovecot doesn't notify MUAs about new mail in IDLE mode.
It doesn't matter if message is seen or not, Dovecot still notifies client.
And (how) can I prevent dovecot from doing so?
A
