Re: mbsync ignores --dry-run
Update: it appears that the command line --pull flag is also ignored. :( ___ isync-devel mailing list isync-devel@lists.sourceforge.net https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/isync-devel
mbsync ignores --dry-run
Hi, I'm observing a disturbing behaviour of mbsync, both in v1.5.0 and in v1.5.1. When I add the --dry-run flag, mbsync ignores it and does alter my mailboxes, both far and near. I've asked a colleague to try and they've confirmed this. I think this might be an important bug, with potentially harsh consequences on users. Regards, ___ isync-devel mailing list isync-devel@lists.sourceforge.net https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/isync-devel

Is it possible that in this last version it doesn't explicitly say what "would have" done in the final summary? ___ isync-devel mailing list isync-devel@lists.sourceforge.net https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/isync-devel

Understood. They're just numbers but there's no distinction between "would" and "did" in those numbers, correct? I mean, the only difference is the time it takes to finish the job, right? ___ isync-devel mailing list isync-devel@lists.sourceforge.net https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/isync-devel

That'd be clearer, yes. ___ isync-devel mailing list isync-devel@lists.sourceforge.net https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/isync-devel
