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
