mailServer == RPi3 Raspian Stretch (on a T1), IMAP mailReceiver == supermicro 64 bit Buster, mbox ~.getmail/getmailrc:
[retriever] type = SimpleIMAPRetriever server = srv.slsware.net username = ghe password = <redacted> [destination] type = Mboxrd path = /var/mail/ghe [options] verbose = 1 # read_all = false # delete = true message_log_syslog = true They're running, but not quite 1) How do I get getmail to quit getting all the email on the server? In mutt, I delete all the unwanted mail, and getmail just puts it back next time I run it. And when I run it again, the emails are all in there twice. 2) Is there any documentation on getmail besides the man page and some howTo help on the web? 3) I seem to remember, from long ago, something about mutt ignoring HTML email. Does it still? And if so, what does it do? Just pretend they don't exist, or just display the text, or delete the HTML part and display what's left? I don't see much about this in the man page, and most of the stuff on the web isn't dated. 4) What do read_all, delete, and message_log_syslog mean? -- Glenn English
