Make sure the POP3 server is configured to offer read mail.  From the MercuryP help:

Mark retrieved mail as "read"  When this control is checked, MercuryP will change the status of all messages downloaded by POP3 clients to "read". This can be used in conjunction with the "offer only unread mail" option to allow users to leave copies of all their mail on the server, but be offered only mail they have not seen.

Offer only unread mail  If this control is checked, Mercury will list only messages whose status is "unread" - mail marked as read will be invisible to POP3 clients. This option is very convenient, but is also not a part of the POP3 standard.

Hello,

On a small mercury mail server we see quite some message in the map \mercury\mail\user

Opening these files with notepad we see the are all the messages (.NCM) from a 10 day period the user received and misses in his POP e-mail client.

Telnet with the list command shows 0 messages for the user.

Any ideas how to get them into the "proper" inbox folder of the user ?

Thanks.
