31 |
+Development versions of mu between 1.7.18 and 1.7.25 have a bug causing |
32 |
+mail file names to sometimes get mangled after moving messages between |
33 |
+directories. Symptoms include unread messages never being marked as |
34 |
+read. |
35 |
+ |
36 |
+Affected messages have the ':2,' flag appended multiple times. Using the |
37 |
+following commands, users can remove the extra flags. |
38 |
+ |
39 |
+ find ~/Maildir -name '*:2,*:*' | |
40 |
+ sed "s/\(\([^:]*\)\(:2,\)\{1,\}\(:2,.*$\)\)/mv '\0' '\2\4'/" \ |
41 |
+ > rename.sh |
42 |
+ # review rename.sh. empty file indicates that you are unaffected |
43 |
+ sh rename.sh |
