Since I was looking for a way to split my mailbox (mailbox format) in
maildir format, I looked around. I installed Sylpheed-claws since I read
in the doc that it handles both formats. After the install I opened it
and in the menus I choose to import mail from a mbox type mailbox i.e.
the Inbox of one of my accounts (in fact a copy of it. This file is
normally in my thunderbird directory (good idea because the transfert
emptied it)).
To my surprise I got back a all bunch of junk mail (that I didn't even
open at the time I received it) and old stuffs that I deleted long ago
(weird!! :-\ ) but I got all the message seperated from each other in
individual files. Just as I expected it.
In claws, in the list they are displayed with their attached documents.
I open a safe one and it showed up the attached document just fine. So
AVIS AUX AMATEURS 8-) !
Then I ran clamscan (with the debug option ) on the Mail directory
created by Sylpheed-claws hoping to get the number of the infected message.
Clamscan did not find any trace of infection !!!!!!! :-(
Can someone tell me what has gone wrong there ? Was there really a
infection in the first place ? Or could Sylpheed-claws have just gotten
rid of it ?
To sleep well I will need to understand this one.
Cheers
Pascal
