[fetchmail]fetchall and seen

2001-05-22 02:32:50
When the fetchall option is given for imap protocol, the logs show
that all the messages are seen:

$ fetchmail -a -p imap bombay.retortsoft.com
9 messages (9 seen) for shetye at bombay.retortsoft.com.
...

Though this (probably) does not affect the downloading of the mails
later, this message is misleading.

This patch should fix it:
