Package: sylpheed
Version: 0.9.4-2
Severity: wishlist
For some reason it happens from time to time that my local mailbox
file is corrupted: A mail does not start with "From" but with "rom",
i.e. the "F" is missing. In that case, sylpheed fetches all the mails
up to this corrupted one and then stops getting any mail from the
local mailbox without providing any warning/information.
It would be nice to get at least a warning or some other kind of
message that the mailbox could not be read since it is difficult to
guess when this happens. One just doesn't get mails any more and one
of the reasons could be that you really did not get any mail this day.
