I'm trying to set up a public-inbox instance to mirror the edk2-devel
mailing list. I'm using version 1.9.0.
I'm having problems importing a mirror of 105,000 messages from 2016
onward - when I configured it to pull them from an IMAP server it
appeared to go through all of them, but then the web interface only
showed the last 10 or so, with no more pages and the edk2-devel.git
directory is only a few MB.
When imap didn't work, I tried downloading them into a maildir and tried
importing them via that instead, but that isn't working either.
I was wondering if someone on this list could help point out what I'm
doing wrong.
The maildir is:
~$ du -h Maildump/
4.0K Maildump/Mail/cur
4.0K Maildump/Mail/tmp
2.5G Maildump/Mail/new
2.5G Maildump/Mail
2.5G Maildump/
I'm using the following configuration in ~/.public-inbox/config:
[publicinbox]
wwwlisting = all
[publicinbox "edk2-devel"]
address = [email protected]
inboxdir = /home/public-inbox/edk2-devel.git
watchheader = List-Id:<devel.edk2.groups.io>
url = https://openfw.io/edk2-devel
watch = maildir:/home/public-inbox/Maildump/Mail/
watch = imaps://imap.example.net/INBOX ; redacted
indexlevel = full
replyto = :list
spamcheck = none
obfuscate = true
Authentication for the imap server is handled via git-credential.
I'm running the following commands:
public-inbox-init -V2 -L full edk2-devel
/home/public-inbox/edk2-devel.git https://openfw.io/edk2-devel
[email protected]
public-inbox-watcher # I run this in a screen session
public-inbox-httpd # I run this in a separate screen session, once
public-inbox-watcher appears to have processed the existing messages
