I had exactly the same problem! It seems like mairix is not yet able
to escape special characters. In my opinion there are two ways to
fix that:
a) no special characters for "m:" queries, since they aren't used here
very often
b) escape character "\", good since words can't contain "\"
(or "\\" -> "\")
As a workaround, I split the Message-ID in subwords:
| mairix -r "m:$(echo "$msgid" | sed -e 's/[~,/=^]\+/=,/g' \
| -e 's/.\{31\}/&=,/g' -e 's/^\(=,\)\+//g' -e 's/$/=/' \
| -e 's/\(=,\|=\)\+$/=/g')"
This works for me...
