Privacy question: where does PopMan store the email?
Posted: 13 Apr 2006, 13:19
Hi,
I would like to know exactly what happens to an email message when using PopMan. When it downloads the mail header and gives a notification, has it actually downloaded the mail body at that point (assuming that preview is disabled), or does it only download the body when the message is previewed, opened or has its source viewed?
When the header is downloaded, and when the body is downloaded, this content is stored on disk in the "Application Data\PopMan\PopManLogFile.log" file. However, if you disable logging, this file is no longer used. Does the header and body get written to any other file, or is it all maintained in RAM?
Many thanks,
