Package: courier-imap
Version: 4.1.1.20060828-5
Severity: important
Hi. I'm using courier-imap with mutt (from unstable). It is invoked via
a ssh pipe (tunnel="ssh -q host /usr/bin/imapd Maildir/ 2>/dev/null").
Sometimes after closing a mailbox (by changing it or terminating mutt)
all messages that were previously marked as read (by reading mail) are
marked as new again. This is some kind of data loss which makes me mark
this bug as important.
On reproducing: It happens "sometimes". Using a mailbox for a short
amount of time will usually not trigger this bug. Leaving it open longer
makes it more likely to happen. It might very well be that it depends on
mail arriving while reading the mailbox (and indeed I think this to be
the case).
Is this reproducible at all?
Suggestions for debugging?
Helmut

I am closing all pre-wheezy bug reports and non-critical wheezy bug
reports. If you can reproduce the issue using jessie (or even better
current unstable), feel free to reopen the bug.
Cheers,
