 		Hey sauceykat (and the world in general),

I did some research on the X-UIDL: XfS"!oP##!FQ[!!(&>!! thing.

This is what I found. It's basically quotes from forums that I found and I've included the URLs in case you have the time to read each article in full, although, at least for me, this wasn't very helpful.

I quoted everything and abandoned the idea of paraphrasing what I read because despite the fact that doing Computer Studies right now, I'm unfamiliar with all of this extremely technical mumbo-jumbo, and I don't want to misinform you.

UID is "unique identifier". The L on the end comes from the POP3 command UIDL, which means "unique identifier listing," the command to retrieve the unique identifiers of a set of messages.

It is a unique identifier used by pop3. If you see a UID header it means the mail has gone through a pop3 server at some point. This is how your mail client knows which mails it has seen and which are new when you leave mail on the server.

The UIDL is obtained from the POP protocol session, *not* the message headers.


I also read somewhere that the 'X' in X-UIDL means that it's unstandardized.

Despite all of this, I still have no idea what the characters XfS"!oP##!FQ[!!(&>!! mean (if they mean anything).
Hope it helps.
