To remember the already checked emails and not re-download them the next time

Tuesday 22nd of September 2009 7:07am

Add an option to keep a copy of the emails on the server, and not recheck the reviewed emails the next time MailWasher is opened. (This option is available in Outlook Express)
It would be usefull when you want to store some emails on the email-server and you do not want them to be re-checked.

We've been asked this many times over the years and it would be a great feature but unfortunately it's not a feature of POP3. Outlook Express etc can do it because they keep a log of which messages have been downloaded, but since MailWasher is only checking them and not downloading them then it won't work.

The beta has a cache feature that allows it to keep copies of messages already downloaded which speeds up the checking process a great deal when mail has been left on the server. You still have to look at the old mail but at least you don't have to wait for it to download again.

Since that is not an option, and mail left on the server, also remains in MailWasher after washing, would it be possible to delete all of the mail remaining after it has been selected and "washed" into the mail program, with one click, perhaps by clicking on DELETE at the top of the column. Once you have the mail in your email program, you have no need for it to remain in MailWasher, and you must delete each message individually to keep it from getting mixed up with incoming "new" mail.
