It is too long ago I did this for me to remember the exact reason. I think it 
had something to do with kmail complaining about an attibute missing for 
certain mail when doing a search.

Sounded very much like a corruption in the mailbox to me, Especially since it 
happened only in my INBOX.
I saw mixrbld as a means to fix this by rebuilding the mailbox. Ran mixrdfix 
after this as I saw nothing at all in the mailbox after the rebuild. Now the 
mails are there, but half of them always marked unread. And cannot be marked 
as read whatever I do.

Just checked the source code and the actual message was from mixrbld and was 
the one on row 181, printf ("Data file %s UID ran backwards.....
Isn't that "out of sequence".

I did check this up and found that you have indicated earlier that it is not a 
real problem. Also tried mixcvt to copy the mailbox as somewhere suggested, 
but even the result still had the same problem.

Don't have Alpine here, but checked with thunderbird, and still have the same 
thing.
