Package: mairix Version: 0.23+git20131125-0.3 Severity: important Tags: patch
Dear Maintainer, Mairix has, at its core, a name/value pair scheme which assumes names and values cannot exceed 256 bytes in length. There was a semi-active bug which ended up with a 4k limit instead of a 256 byte limit, but instead I have submitted a PR which sizes the buffers dynamically with input at https://github.com/rc0/mairix/pull/17 It makes sense to apply this to the mairix package and then, ideally, to submit for a backport to jessie as currently in jessie I am unable to index my mail archive without the above patch.
