Hello all,
I'm trying to use UW's mailutil to migrate mbox files to Cyrus. When
migrating to v2.1.15 this worked perfectly; read/unread/answered states
were all transitioned from the mboxes to Cyrus. When migrating to v2.2.6,
the states are not correct; in fact, the state of all of the messages in
the newly migrated folder seem to be set to the state of the last message
migrated.
For example, I have an mbox file called "/var/spool/mail/acaird" and a
Cyrus v2.2.6 server named after the star "azah". /var/spool/mail/acaird
has 7 messages in it; messages 1, 3, and 7 have been Seen, and message 7
has been Answered. Using mailutil like:
mailutil copy -debug /var/spool/mail/acaird \
"{azah/novalidate-cert/authuser=admin/user=acaird}testfolder-1"
creates a new folder called "testfolder-1" on the Cyrus server and copies
the 7 messages into it. On the v2.2.6 server, the client reports all of
the messages as having the state "Seen, Answered".
The output from mailutil and the telemetry logs after the login steps are
below. It appears as though the state information is being correctly read
by mailutil and correctly received by Cyrus, but isn't being written to
the seen database correctly. Performing this same operation on a Cyrus
v2.1.15 server produces the same results in the telemetry logs, but when
the mailbox is opened, the states are correct.
The differences between the two Cyrus servers, other than version, are:
v2.1.16 v2.2.6
altnamespace: no yes
seendb format: flat skiplist
Is this a known issue, or is there anything else I can do to gather
information to track this down?
Thanks for any help.
