Re: [otrs] OTRS : Duplicate emails gets via POP3

Hi Gerald. Duplicated mails occur, but that's not the issue I or Marco (as you stated) was talking about. I have about 40-50 Mailaccounts configured in that system, but mails sometimes arrive more than that number in the queue. I also considered that it may be that the mailbox doesn't get cleared after fetching the mails. But that's not the case either. In the logs I can see that the same mail is fetched many times _at_the_same_time_ (well, nearly the same time, it lasts some seconds to finish that)! I haven't checked if that mails are on the mailserver that often, but as the headers (seen with "src"-view in otrs) are exactly the same, I don't believe so. To me it seems that PostMaster.pl duplicates mails sometimes. I just have no clue why or under which circumstances. Regards Jan Dreyer IT Administrator / Operations Team / M-IT OMS

Jan's problem may be because of actually duplicated emails, though. Multiple POP3 environments could mean users may be sending to multiple addresses simultaneously. Marco's issue seems to be emails that aren't removed from the mailbox. This could be for different reasons, among which, for instance, gmail account settings that aren't set to allow items to be deleted when downloaded. Or just a stuck message. If another mailbox utility can be used to successfully POP3/delete the entrie(s), this may be adequate. If it, too, can't remove the email entries, the problem is at the server.

Hi Marco.

It occurs with our 2.4.10 installation. Switching from POP3S to IMAPS and increasing the frequency of fetching mails (every nine minutes atm) helped a little.

I have no idea where this comes from exactly, but I’m pretty sure it belongs to the imo heavy use and the high number of POP3 accounts and mails within these. I haven’t seen this behavior on our 3.0 or 3.1 installations (which have much lower load).

Hi All,

We have installed the last otrs version (3.1.10-01) but some times we receive duplicate emails on mailbox of otrs, this emails were obtained via POP3 account. We have cases that a email it's duplicate 100 times.

Anyone had this problem ?

Regards, Marco
