Subject: Messages losing their expiry tags
Date: Mon, 23 Jun 2008 15:15:13 +0200	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <muxzlpcqom6.fsf@uzeb.lrde.epita.fr> (raw)


       Hi !

It's been a while since I noticed that... I'm using nnml and
auto-expiry, but from time to time, when I enter a mail group, I can see
that some messages have lost their E tag (I *know* they had it before),
and are just marked as O. This is very annoying because some very old
stuff end up living in the group like forever.

The problem is that I never could figure out a pattern to make this
determnistic. The victims look more or less random to me. The only thing
I noticed is that messages that I sent myself (and that are archived in
the same group) look more affected than others.

Did anybody had similar problems ?
