it was probably not the best idea, but I moved computers, by coping all my maildir and isync config, but not the isync state (in retrospect, I probably should have done that).
yeah ...
I ran isync (1.5.0) and some emails got duplicated, but not everything and more heavily in Archive folders. Is this the expected behaviour?
no. i expect that there is some confounding factor. maybe misleading sort order? or some messages were never pushed up because of reasons?
I was hoping that without zero state, isync would just rescan and match up everything nicely if slowly.
no, isync does not look at the content, not even message ids. one could implement that as a fallback if one was so inclined ...
For future reference? Is copying everything, including state the preferred way of moving?
yes. unless your connection to the imap server is faster then a local transfer. then just sync up, and sync from scratch on the new box. _______________________________________________ isync-devel mailing list isync-devel@lists.sourceforge.net https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/isync-devel
