mail store in James

Hi,

 

I am running into a problem with James server. In config.xml, I configured
my pop authentication details in <fetchpop> section. After that when I run
James server, it is sending all the emails present in my inbox to me again.
It has started looping. I cleared off all the mail from the webmail of my
account and reverted back the changes in config.xml but still whenever I
start James, it starts sending the mails which were there in my inbox
earlier. I don't know where James had stored all the mails from my inbox. 

How can I recover James from this condition? How can I clear the mail store
of James?

In this state I can't start James, as it starts sending out all the mails
again. 

 

Thanks,

Gaurav Handa

I figured out the issue. When first time I provided my pop access details to
the server, it downloaded all the mails from my inbox and stored them in
outgoing repository at ~/dist/james-2.2.0/apps/james/var/mail/outgoing/
After that whenever I was starting the server, it was delivering all the
mails present in the outgoing spool.
Now I cleared the outgoing spool.

Thanks,
