Is there a way to get mbsync to save these anyhow?
not as of now. in principle it wouldn't be too hard to hack it to skip
leading empty lines, but i'd recommend that you just fix the files on
the server instead (a simple sed script would do, in case there are
too many to fix them by hand).
Excellent idea. For those wondering, the sed script I used is
sed -i.bak '/./,$!d' `cat /tmp/badfiles`
And then once I was happy I move the .bak files out of the directory.
That fixes the raw message files; I then removed Dovecot's index files,
restarted the server, and checked that everything looked ok from my mail
client. Unfortunately, I think I need to do something more. I blew away
my output dir and reran mbsync. I get messages like this:
C: 0/1 B: 37/52 M: +0/0 *0/0 #0/0 S: +0/0 *0/0 #0/0
Maildir notice: no UIDVALIDITY, creating new.
C: 0/1 B: 37/52 M: +0/0 *0/0 #0/0 S: +2904/19070 *0/0 #0/0
Warning: message 2909 from master has incomplete header.
C: 0/1 B: 37/52 M: +0/0 *0/0 #0/0 S: +2905/19070 *0/0 #0/0
Warning: message 2910 from master has incomplete header.
When I connect to the IMAP server directly, here's what that first
message looks like to two different commands:
03 fetch 2909 full

)
I don't know IMAP well, but that seems about right to me. Does mbsync
need something else in there to be able to sync successfully? Or is
there an option I should be setting? Nothing in the docs seemed like a
good fit, but I'm definitely not an expert.
Thanks,
William
