So, last night I logged in via CPanel/File manager and viewed how many
emails there were for one account. There were 14 there, and I went
through them, reading, and then deleted six. The delete was done from
the CPanel/ File Manager.

This morning, Dovecot informed Claws there were 21. On the Claws
'Get Mail', the expunged messages, and only 15 were retrived; a
difference of 6.

So, ..yes, my bad, as I had forgotten the other day that there had been
one email msg deleted via CPanel/ File Manager.

Obviously, CPanel/ File Manager does not update the Dovecot list of
files available for download. It would be smarter if it did.  lol

Thanks for your help and patience,

Peter
