    From Dave Plowman (News)@21:1/5 to All on Fri Dec 24 15:57:10 2021
    Since my problems with email, I've been using the PC more than before.

    With Thunderbird, I can leave all the mails on the server. Happy to go
    online to the servers to delete them when needed.

    Is there a way of doing this with Pluto as the email reader - and not downloading duplicates of those it has already had? Realise it's not a
    Pluto thing - but I want to keep that as my email reader.

    If you are using Hermes the answer is yes to not downloading duplicates.

    Hermes - Mail Accounts-Select the account click Edit.

    Click the Fetching button and the choices are yours to select.

    And there is a similar setting in AntiSpam, under the General tab in
    Choices. I am pretty sure there is also in POPstar, if you are still
    using that.

    Pluto is not involved at all - it just stores what has been
    downloaded.
