[CentOS] mail issue help and need good mail server

[John Plemons]

What mail client are you using?

My people use Thunderbird, it keeps track of the emails that it has 
downloaded and doesn't download again...

I had this problems years ago with earlier versions, but only at random 
and on different clients and at different time, it was unrepeatable..
