The fud-client in cyrus-imapd-2.1.14 seems a little broken, or perhaps it is the fud-server?
An example, a user is called "stens" : $ fud-client localhost stens user.stens user: stens mbox: user.stens Number of Recent 0 Last read: Wed Aug 13 11:37:51 2003 Last arrived: Wed Aug 13 13:54:38 2003 But: $ fud-client localhost randomstring user.stens user: randomstring mbox: user.stens Number of Recent 1553 Last read: Thu Jan 1 01:00:00 1970 Last arrived: Wed Aug 13 13:54:38 2003 There are indeed 1553 messages in the INBOX of this user, about a dozen of these were unread. The only numbers that seems reasonable is the "Last arrived" and "Number of Recent" when the fud "user" is a random string and the username. I get the same result with the perl fud client posted to this list once. It would really be nice to have a utility that listed the number of read/unread messages in the INBOX, it is quite useful. -psi
