Re: [el noe] pop3 and "mark as read" problem

would have been easier if i had mentioned "mercury mail server"

if anyone runs into a similar problem:

you can create a file called pop3.pro, and place this file in the c:\SYSTEM path.

This file has a couple of configuration switches for the individual Mercury Mailbox:

Mark Read:Y
Show Read:Y
Show Status:Y
No Delete:N
Delete is final:N

I like to make sure that read mail is marked as read. Also, I don't necessairily want deleted mail to be actually deleted, at least until I log off from my email client. So, I put a N next to those 2 settings.

Regards

Niko
