Description Trenton D. Adams 2006-10-04 09:26:45 UTC
I used the exact line below...

nice -n 20 imapsync --ssl1 --noauthmd5 --host1 mail.athabascau.ca \
  --user1 trenta --passfile1 ~/passwd.trenta --host2 localhost \
  --user2 trenta --passfile2 ~/passwd.local --syncinternaldates \
  --subscribed --subscribe --buffersize 65535 \ # --delete \
  --minage 60

Why would it delete the source emails with that command line?  I thought it was only supposed to delete when I ask it to.

I thought I should post this here first.  I know that gentoo has changes to imapsync, at least in past builds.

Thanks.

If you look at the imapsync-1.182.ebuild file, you'll notice that the only change Gentoo introduces to this software is a small patch for Makefile to honor $DESTDIR variable, so the thing installs into sandbox image correctly.
Comment 4 Trenton D. Adams 2006-10-09 12:48:42 UTC
Okay, thank you.  I will file a bug report with the imapsync author.

Closing as upstream. BTW, I just added 1.217 in the tree, which doesn't modify the software in any way.
