did you delete any remaining mbsync state files from the backup _before_ trying to upload it to the new server?
No, I had not done that.

well, actually, you did, as the commands from the blog post do exactly that.

so let's find out what else went wrong:

you can re-run mbsync with -V to see if it thinks it synced all messages.

if it thinks so (the number of messages on both sides is equal), just re-run.

if it doesn't think so, we need to try to reproduce what happened.
create a second maildir store for testing and push into it. make sure not to use SyncState * here, or you need to repeat the cleanup procedure first (which would imply that you'd later need to cleanup the imap mailbox first as well).

in both cases above, use the -D option and send me the resulting log.

but just a wild guess: could it be that the missing mails are marked as deleted (T flag) in the maildir folder, almost like in peng bai's case?
