It's the ME IMAP beta. I don't think it's publicly released yet. Email ME and ask them for it if you don't have it already.

I have been using this version for 2 weeks without issues at all...

Seems I spoke too soon. The exact same thing just happened to me with the new IMAP service.

7 'new' emails just popped in my inbox from the past two weeks.

PLEASE fix this!

I've had absolutely no issues so far....

This just happened again 2 minutes ago. 4 new unread messages from earlier today and yesterday just 'popped' into my inbox.

Can you please reply to your earlier support ticket or start a new one with the following;

The IMAP logs for a day where this occurred.
The _index.xml file from the inbox when these message suddenly show up. The index file location is;

Program Files\MailEnable\Post Offices\[Post Office Name]\Mailroot\[Mailbox Name]\Inbox

Also give us the MAI message files of the messages that suddenly show up from the same location of send through the subject and any other header details you can.

I will do that as soon as it happens again as I don't remember the MAIs for the last time it happened.

Thats fine thanks.

I would like to go on the record that I have noticed this behavior as well. I am using ME Enterprise 3.14

I too am having this exact problem. I see the message coming in via the logs, see it delivered to Inbox, but dont get it. I do find the mai file in the inbox directory however.

I attempted to put the patch in place but my ME would not start

This has happened again with 7 'new' messages showing as unread in my inbox today that were actually received as far back as three weeks ago.

There may be a pattern (or coincidence) but 6 out of the 7 messages were status updates/notifications from Basecamp.

Anyhow, I have submitted a defect trouble ticket with the information and logs that you guys requested a few posts above.

Smurf · Post by **Smurf** » Thu Jun 05, 2008 7:39 am

To add to the problems. We're running the latest possible IMAP (roughly 2 weeks old) and have seen the IMAP at 100% CPU and it's been creating 60Gb logfiles for a few days. We only have max 5-10 mailboxes using it. This is also on a relatively new OS install.

This service is the achilles heel of Mailenable. We have used their IMAP for 4-5 years and it's never worked reliably.

Shame as ME has so much potential.

For the love of all things holy, will you guys please post an update or resolution for this? It just happened again. 9 "new" emails popped in from the last 3 weeks. Now I have to go back and contact these clients and explain what happened. Needless to say, it doesn't reflect well on us at all.

I never heard so much as a "Thanks, we are looking into this" to my last support request where I took the time to compile all of the information you needed. I'm not going to devote another 30-40 minutes to compile additional information if the original time was wasted.

Why is this not at the top of your development queue? PLEASE FIX THIS!

taylort is right... this issue needs high priority. I realize that RC1 of Beta 3.5 is under production... is it going to fix the problem?

C'mon ME, I love the product but some of these issues need to be addressed in public to please the masses.
