Hello!

I am trying to migrate from Teapop to Dovecot.

I'm using Dovecot 1.1.14.

I need to make use of the X-UIDL header so clients don't download messages they've already received.

I have the X-UIDL head in the message.

I have pop3_reuse_xuidl(pop3): yes

My problem is the X-UIDL in the message is being ignored and Dovecot is still generating it's own.

The INBOX is an mbx file not Maildir.

Should this work? Have I missed something?

Thanks! Ben
