After some time I looked into that again. Currently I have:Nov 08 11:02:45 taurus syncmail-work[66155]: slave: 4922595 messages, 519622 recent Nov 08 11:02:52 taurus syncmail-work[66155]: master: 536546 messages, 0 recent
On the local machine I have:
$ find cur new -type f | sed -r 's/.*,//; s/U=[0-9]*/U=/' | sort | uniq -c
727631
891 RS
6770 RST
10275 S
84686 ST
4091947 T
395 U=
on the remote machine it's:
$ find cur new -type f | sed s/.*,// | sort | uniq -c
525693
1 a
858 RS
9994 S
So the trashed (T) mails indeed make a big difference, though they don't
explain the complete difference.
Looking at one of the trashed mails, I have: $ notmuch-work search --output=files id:20160305041443.GA15110@localhost /home/uwe/Maildir-work/.lists.linux-arm-kernel/cur/1591260203.24229_6060.taurus,U=96624:2,T /home/uwe/Maildir-work/.lists.linux-arm-kernel/cur/1596451602.12728_95550.taurus,U=527455:2,T /home/uwe/Maildir-work/.lists.linux-arm-kernel/cur/1599137440.15600_95548.taurus,U=966567:2,T /home/uwe/Maildir-work/.lists.linux-arm-kernel/cur/1604437795.202088_80663.taurus,U=1422581:2,T /home/uwe/Maildir-work/.lists.linux-arm-kernel/cur/1617249920.248609_5852.taurus,U=1912907:2,T /home/uwe/Maildir-work/.lists.linux-arm-kernel/cur/1620799244.1020789_95549.taurus,U=2411398:2,T /home/uwe/Maildir-work/.lists.linux-arm-kernel/cur/1624702521.223072_86474.taurus,U=2920641:2,T /home/uwe/Maildir-work/.lists.linux-arm-kernel/cur/1628056501.1555639_39006.taurus,U=3437967:2,T /home/uwe/Maildir-work/.lists.linux-arm-kernel/cur/1629352809.326495_40438.taurus,U=3958232:2,T /home/uwe/Maildir-work/.lists.linux-arm-kernel/new/1631031224.213028_95548.taurus,U=4481897:2,So this mail is there several times, the only difference between two of them is:
$ diff /home/uwe/Maildir-work/.lists.linux-arm-kernel/cur/1591260203.24229_6060.taurus,U=96624:2,T /home/uwe/Maildir-work/.lists.linux-arm-kernel/cur/1596451602.12728_95550.taurus,U=527455:2,T
85c85 < X-TUID: Dt8UrWnhpxMb --- > X-TUID: dFc6WopZteE0 Does that mean that the UID the server used for this mail changed? Best regards Uwe
