if you edit it correctly without renaming, mbsync shouldn't even notice that you changed it, so it won't upload it a second time, and even less download it again. so in short, i have no clue what is happening. > I'm using the isync package from debian/stretch. > i need an actual version number. the debugging options depend on it. the usual procedure is to enable mbsync's verbose/debug output and see what it thinks it does. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ _______________________________________________ isync-devel mailing list isync-devel@lists.sourceforge.net https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/isync-devel
