I suspect that your problem has to do with the way your messages were moved from the old server to the new server.
Such a problem would occur if the most recent messages on the old server were transferred to the new server first (making them the least recent on the new server), and the least recent on the old server were transferred to the new server last (making them the most recent on the new server). The following is an exchange between K-9 Mail and an IMAP server: | >>> 4 SELECT "INBOX" | <<< * FLAGS (\Answered \Flagged \Draft \Deleted \Seen $MDNSent Junk NonJunk $Forwarded $label1 $label3 $label2 $label4 $label5) | <<< * OK [PERMANENTFLAGS (\Answered \Flagged \Draft \Deleted \Seen $MDNSent Junk NonJunk $Forwarded $label1 $label3 $label2 $label4 $label5 \*)] | <<< * 1038 EXISTS | <<< * 0 RECENT | <<< * OK [UNSEEN 237] | <<< * OK [UIDVALIDITY 1126644935] | <<< * OK [UIDNEXT 88194] | <<< 4 OK [READ-WRITE] Completed | >>> 5 UID SEARCH 1014:1038 NOT DELETED | <<< * SEARCH 87667 87677 87678 87679 87680 87681 87682 87683 87685 87711 87721 87724 87728 87748 87753 88053 88074 88103 88112 88153 88155 88157 88163 88178 88193 | <<< 5 OK Completed (25 msgs in 0.000 secs) | >>> 6 UID FETCH 88193,88178,88163,88157,88155,88153,88112,88103,88074,88053,87753,87748,87728,87724,87721,87711,87685,87683,87682,87681,87680,87679,87678,87677,87667 (UID FLAGS INTERNALDATE RFC822.SIZE BODY.PEEK[HEADER.FIELDS (date subject from content-type to cc reply-to message-id references in-reply-to X-K9mail-Identity)]) K-9 Mail opens the inbox. The server says it has 1,038 messages in the inbox. K-9 Mail requests the UIDs of the 25 most recent messages (1014 to 1038). The server responds with the UIDs. K-9 Mail then fetches those 25 messages from the server. Message dates generally don't have anything to do with message retrieval or with what is considered "most recent". The order is solely dependent on the order in which the messages arrive in the folder. If you are unable to correct the order on the server, they you may be able to adjust the fetch settings on K-9 Mail so that (1) it fetches all messages (not just 25), and (2) it fetches messages from just, say, the last two weeks, rather than from any time. The search results would then be only date-based. Unfortunately, the "Load more messages" would not work. -- -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the K-9 Mail Users List.
