<DKIM> Remote mail is being deleted after sync

Hi Nicolas,

Thanks for getting back to me.  I had indeed tested it without the
--dry-run mode, I simply did the dry-run to gather logs before sending
this.  I dug into the cache and options as you mentioned and didn't find
any problems initially.

However, the issue is now solved.  It was an error on my part regarding the
maxage parameter.  Originally when I was first setting it up and testing it
out, I didn't want to pull down tens of thousands of emails each iteration
of testing, so I set maxage = 2.  Later I thought I disabling maxage by
setting the value to -1 but apparently that does not behave how I had
expected. :)

Commenting out the maxage parameter corrected the behavior and now
everything is working just fine!

On a separate note, I did notice that the -o command line option doesn't
seem to override the autorefresh setting as it should.  Even with that
option set, it will still go into autorefresh mode.  This isn't a big deal
for me, I was just using -o while testing anyway.  Just wanted to point it
out.  It happens with both 6.5.6 and 6.5.7-rc4.

Thanks again!
Kevin
