[imp] Re: Viewing any message always shows the same one.

[Jason Bassford]

I've done some more troubleshooting and have come up with some better 
information.

It's not always the same message body that I see. Rather, it's always 
the message body of the first messsage with the same message #x that I 
viewed within the sesssion.  Since I normally delete a message after 
I've read it, it seemed as if this was the case (since I'm usually 
always viewing message #1).

For instance, if at the start of a session I only have a single message 
in my Inbox, and I view it, that's what I see.  If I delete it and then 
get another one (which is now, itself, message #1) I see the previous 
message body instead.

If I *don't* delete this one, but receive a new one (which is now 
message #2) I'll view it properly.  If I delete message #2 and receive 
another new one (now message #2) I see the previous message #2's body 
instead.)

So - to make sure that I always see every message properly, I can't 
delete any of them.  This makes sure that every message has a unique, 
constantly incrementing, message number.

So - what is it here that's caching the message body of each message 
number?  I do note that if I do a grep for something in the body of the 
message it will show up in one of my /tmp/sess_ PHP files.  So - it 
*appears* as if it's PHP that's caching this information.  Why?  And how 
can I prevent it?  Deleting the PHP session file that's storing this 
information results in my logging myself out because it's also storing 
my login credentials...
