Hi, I uploaded a few thousand messages in an email client of mine from a local archive to a Courier-IMAP mailbox. This email client seems to be broken because it prepended a "From " line to every message (no colon, no content, just this string). Now this stupid line breaks not just other email clients but the one that it created it too...
This is not my server, but I do have FTP access to it. So I figured that I can mount it and run a script to remove those lines. The email address in question is the same that I'm sending this message from, my IMAP folder is named Archive, and the messages are here: "[ftproot]/mail/joco.name/fejes/.Archive/cur", and a sample message file name is "1325972890.M623329P527044V0000000000000904I0000000000708B06_0.varga.lanten.hu,S=3905:2,S". The only reason I know it's Courier-IMAP is because of files named like that, and it's also in maildir format because of a file named like that, I don't know other technical details, but I can ask my ISP if it's needed. So here's the question of the day: if I change messages via FTP directly, do I break anything? There's a file named courierimapuiddb that contains file name and UID mappings, I won't change either, so this seems alright. I don't know what to do with the courierimapkeywords/:list file or the maildirsize file, or possibly other places where Courier stores its state.
