Re: [Dovecot] emails are being marked as read auto-magically

I'm having a weird issue with dovecot 2.1.7 (using the latest thunderbird client). Something, I have emails that mark themselves as read on their own. No one touches them, and they get marked as read. I try to re-mark them as unread, but a few seconds later, they get marked as read again. The same problem happens in reverse (emails marks as unread become read).

You might enable the mail_log Plugin and log flag changes: http://wiki2.dovecot.org/Plugins/MailLog

Something like this should help:

mail_plugins = $mail_plugins mail_log notify plugin { mail_log_events = flag_change mail_log_fields = uid box msgid size flags vsize from subject }

I also suggest to use some lightweight mail client like "mutt" for testing.
