Arachne at FreeLists---The Arachne Fan Club!

Good day all,

On the 'tester message board' we have been discussing a way for Arachne
to show whether or not any particular email has already been download
more than once.

Insight.exe v3.87.3 is the result. :)

| Re:                                                                       |
| Ray's quip.... "Glenn knows insight, maybe he can figure something out."  |
|                                                                           |
|                                                                           |
| Yes sir, I do indeed know insight. <ggg>                                  |
|                                                                           |
| Hence I have just compiled and tested v3.87.3 :))                         |
|                                                                           |
| From what I have been able to find....                                    |
|                                                                           |
| The pop3 server modifies the headers of any message that was              |
| downloaded but not deleted to include a 'status line'                     |
|                                                                           |
| I have just added the needed code to Insight.exe so that this line will   |
| now be displayed if it exists.                                            |
|                                                                           |
| http://www.cisnet.com/glennmcc/my-stuff/downld-1.htm                      |
| (no status line exists in the 1st download of the message)                |
|                                                                           |
| http://www.cisnet.com/glennmcc/my-stuff/downld-2.htm                      |
| (now the status line has been inserted by the pop3 server and insight.exe |
| includes                                                                  |
|  that information in the converted HTM file being viewed by core.exe)     |
|                                                                           |
| In my case... 'Status: RO' == Read Only                                   |
|                                                                           |
| The advantage here is...                                                  |
|                                                                           |
| No status shown == 1st download                                           |
|                                                                           |
| Status shown == Already downloaded                                        |
|                                                                           |
| The next step will be to modify core.exe to optionally not download any   |
| message containing a status line.                                         |
|                                                                           |
| In other words... download only new mail.                                 |
|                                                                           |
| And the next step after that will be to modify core.exe so that we        |
| can optionally delete all messages containing a status line.              |
|                                                                           |
| In other words... delete all old mail.                                    |
|                                                                           |
