Im running cyrus 2.2.10, and when i run squat -r -s, squat fails on certain messages or users because there is one corrupt message in the user's mailbox. This isnt a huge issue in itself because i can obviously remove the corrupt file or run reconstruct and then restart squat. The bigger issue, is that on a system with 1000s of users, if i plan to run squat as an automatic event in the future, i now have to worry that one corrupt message in even a single message will stop squatter in its tracks and i wont know it unless i'm constantly watching the logs for it.

Is there a reason squat is not designed to simply continue indexing after a message or user fails to be indexed?

Probably not.

big problem for anyone running a large system where occasional file corruption is inevitable. Is there something i can do to fix this problem?

Patches welcome.
