Package: isync
Version: 1.3.0-2.1
Severity: normal
Dear Maintainer,
if a maildir path contains a recursive symlink, mbsync does not detect
recursion but aborts with
Fatal: buffer too small. Please report a bug.
A run inside gdb reveals:

A recursive symlink (here: Inbox -> ".") might be considered bad
practise. But perhaps a recursion detection is more user-friendly?
Kind regards,
Nicolas
