Mbsync does not download INBOX emails from my mail server to my local machine.
Folders Sent and Trash are downloaded. I can browse these folders in Mutt, and use notmuch to search for emails. When I test with another client (Icedove Mail), I can sync all the mailboxes, including current inbox, via IMAP. No issue. That is how I consult the mailbox these days. $ ls Mail/username/INBOX/* Mail/username/INBOX/cur: Mail/username/INBOX/new: Mail/username/INBOX/tmp: .mbsyncrc: IMAPAccount username Host mail.username.com Port 993 User username PassCmd "gpg -dq $HOME/.config/mutt/pass.gpg" SSLType IMAPS AuthMechs PLAIN IMAPStore username-remote Account username MaildirStore username-local SubFolders Verbatim Path ~/Mail/username/ # the trailing "/" matters Inbox ~/Mail/username/INBOX Flatten .

Unfortunately, I found no info that could help me troubleshoot. I also read the manual entry for 'Pattern', tried '* INBOX' and other combinations to no avail. $ mbsync -v isync 1.3.0 $ uname -a Linux x220 5.4.0-131-generic #147+10.0trisquel11 SMP Tue Oct 18 20:29:40 UTC 2022 x86_64 x86_64 x86_64 GNU/Linux What can I try to troubleshoot and understand why no emails are downloaded/sync'ed in INBOX on my local machine? _______________________________________________ isync-devel mailing list isync-devel@lists.sourceforge.net https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/isync-devel
