Re: X-UID in mutt



Are you sometimes accessing your mail via IMAP, and sometimes
remotely?  I believe X-UID is a header used primarily by IMAP...  If
you access your mail via local files, you won't see the header added
until you later access it via IMAP.

Hi Derek,

Thanks for your input.

Yes, I do switching the ways of accessing my email. I followed your guessing to do more experiments. And Yes, if you read email locally, then X-UID will not be added; otherwise X-UID will be added.

There's one interesting thing to look at, I tried to read email locally
'first', then used an IMAP client to read that email again. However, X-UID is not added this time. If you reverse the order (use IMAP
before locally reading), X-UID is there.Does the order really matter?

Thank you,
Denins
