Re: gnus downloading mails from pop again and again.

[Yagnesh Raghava Yakkala <hi@yagnesh.org>]

Hello Yamaoka-san,

I just learned that, even if I delete that pop server from `mail-sources' this
is happening..

then I see the following message in my *messages* buffer
╭─────
│...
│Processing mail from ~/.emacs-mail-crash-box...
│Wrote /home/yagnesh/gnus/Mail/mail/hokudai/1481
│Wrote /home/yagnesh/gnus/Mail/mail/hokudai/1482
│...
╰─────

I don't know why and when that emacs-mail-crash-box was created. I 
crash removed manually and tried connecting to that pop server again.

Phew., Now there is a new "crash-box" file in my home directory.

I don't whether this is bug in gnus or some thing  specific to my mail
provider problem. :(
