Fetchmail, downloading only email I don't already have


Hi all.

At the moment I have Fetchmail grabbing my emails from an IMAP server. Basically I want to keep the messages on the server (as I use Squirrelmail on the same box as the IMAP server to read it from time to time) but also to only download the mail I haven't already downloaded. Note that by this I don't mean unread messages, as I may have already read them in Squirrelmail.

Is there any way to do this? Thanks so much for any help!

If anyone comes across this post wanting to know the answer, I found a different program called OfflineIMAP that does what I want very well.
