It must be there huh? > John Rose You do curious things ;) If we are speaking about INBOX mail accessed via POP3, then only rsync the /var/spool/mail/$USER file. This is the one which counts. To be sure no fresh new incoming mail interferes, shut down Sendmail during the rsync processing. Be aware that POP3 mail clients have their own list about mail being read or new. That is not stored on the server side.
