Created attachment 1126 [details] claws-mail --debug >& log , with a single run of the failing operation I tried downloading all Gmail messages from the server. The web interface provides an option for this. The reason for this is to harvest e-mail addresses with another plugin from claws-mail. However, at some point the downloading stops. It's still not complete. It seems to 'hang' just at the end of 2011. Claws-mail shortly goes into fetch mode and then returns as if nothing happens. I suspect the line which is used as a subject for this bugreport might provide a hint. I don't think that 279 messages can be 0 bytes. However, maybe I'm wrong.
It's POP. You're leaving the messages on the server, but Claws knows which ones it has already downloaded because the UIDL is recorded in ~/.claws-mail/uidl/[your-account-file] If you want Claws to re-download the messages that you have already received, then you must remove their UIDL records from the above mentioned file.
Thanks for the prompt reply, I already checked that. However: gebruiker@Delta:~/.claws-mail/uidl$ ls -la ~/.claws-mail/uidl/ totaal 8 drwx------ 2 gebruiker gebruiker 4096 jul 9 07:53 . drwx------ 11 gebruiker gebruiker 4096 jul 9 07:54 .. -rw-rw-r-- 1 gebruiker gebruiker 0 jul 9 07:53 pop.gmail.com-k.uitermark@gmail.com Could it be related to this?: From: http://support.google.com/mail/bin/static.py?hl=en&page=known_issues.cs Message size is shown as 0 bytes If you use POP or IMAP, we're aware of an issue where messages in your are shown to have a size of 0 bytes. Rest assured, the messages are there and nothing has been lost. We
If it is that bug, then it's not a Claws bug, therefore can still be 'RESOLVED' 'INVALID', and not reopened. Thanks.
