(*** This bug was imported into bugs.kde.org ***) Package: kmail Version: 1.3.2 (using KDE 2.2.2 -2) Severity: normal Installed from: Red Hat Linux 7.2 Compiler: gcc version 2.96 20000731 (Red Hat Linux 7.1 2.96-98) OS: Linux (i686) release 2.4.7-10 OS/Compiler notes: Multiple copies of the same message are downloaded in some circumstances. I believe this occurs when the "to" field has multiple recipients e.g To: recipient_1 recipient_2 recipient_3 (Submitted via bugs.kde.org) (Called from KBugReport dialog)

This workaround uses a command that has been removed from the POP3 standard= in=20 1996 because it's unreliable and causes mail eating when the connection=20 breaks while downloading. Therefore I'm strongly against also implementing= =20 this. Regards Michael H=E4ckel
