Dear all, I am unable to get my mail sync working after the Arch Linux package upgrade from 1.1.2 to 1.2.0 yesterday. My IMAP server is courier-imap 4.10 running on Debian Wheezy. The server has the following maildir structure:
~/Maildir ~/Maildir/.Sent ~/Maildir/.Drafts I was previously using MaildirStore vvvvvvvv-local Path ~/Maildir/ Inbox ~/Maildir MapInbox INBOX Channel vvvvvvvv Master :vvvvvvvv-remote: Slave :vvvvvvvv-local: Patterns "INBOX" "INBOX/Drafts" "INBOX/Sent" Create Both #Expunge Both SyncState * Channel vvvvvvvv-all Master :vvvvvvvv-remote: Slave :vvvvvvvv-local: Patterns * Create Both #Expunge Both SyncState * In the config file, this would recreate the exact same maildir structure on my local machine. After the update, running mbsync vvvvvvvv syncs INBOX once successfully and then tries to sync INBOX again and fails and also fails to sync the other mailboxes with errors: Error: channel vvvvvvvv: master INBOX cannot be opened. Error: channel vvvvvvvv: master INBOX/Drafts cannot be opened. Error: channel vvvvvvvv: master INBOX/Sent cannot be opened. Now I figured out a few things by experimenting. 1) It can still sync a single mailbox just fine. 2) It is important not to have "Expunge Both" enabled during testing because you can accidentally delete your entire mailbox, lucklily I had a backup so I only lost a handful of messages :( 3) If I use the * pattern, it will successfully sync all subfolders to new folders but it will drop the preceding dot from the names. So now I know that the naming scheme has changed and I can adjust my patterns to use the new names, Patterns "INBOX" "Drafts" "Sent" doesn't work well, it now tries to sync each mailbox twice, once sucessfuly and once failing with: Error: channel vvvvvvvv: master INBOX cannot be opened. Error: channel vvvvvvvv: slave Drafts cannot be opened. Error: channel vvvvvvvv: slave Sent cannot be opened. If I drop INBOX from the list it syncs Drafts and Sent OK but doesn't sync INBOX... So then I tried getting rid of the MapInbox function and putting the inbox in its own directory ~/Maildir/INBOX and that has ended up filling my inbox with duplicate messages that I now don't know how to get rid of and it still has the original problem of trying to sync all mailboxes twice. Can anyone shed some light on what's going on with this new version? Is there any way to do a sync of these three folders like I used to? I've spent a lot of time trying to get this to work today and am at my wits end with a broken mailbox again and no idea what to do next, any help would be greatly appreciated, I am pretty desperate at this stage :( ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ BPM Camp - Free Virtual Workshop May 6th at 10am PDT/1PM EDT Develop your own process in accordance with the BPMN 2 standard Learn Process modeling best practices with Bonita BPM through live exercises http://www.bonitasoft.com/be-part-of-it/events/bpm-camp-virtual- event?utm_ source=Sourceforge_BPM_Camp_5_6_15&utm_medium=email&utm_campaign=VA_SF _______________________________________________ isync-devel mailing list isync-devel@lists.sourceforge.net https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/isync-devel
