Hi,
A couple more updates; a new patch too, but I'll keep those on the
JIRA from now on to keep message size down ;)
(NB: Looking at other JIRA there, there is very little discussion
happening there, so I guess this list remains the place for that.
Please correct me if I'm not adhering t

Understood. I will defer a deployment until a later date, although
that complicates matters as I will need to migrate mail out of the

Hi Eric,
As suggested, JIRA filed as MAILBOX-199.
FYI, the Draft-flag problem I mentioned turned out to be a red
herring, the client simply doesn't respect that flag.
The new challenge is a failure when trying to upload a large corpus of
mail (and dir hierarchy) from another server, but I'
Hi Robin, Thx for the follow-up.
Explicitly calling System.gc can bring global bad performance, so it
should be called only in case of windows platform.
The best is to create a JIRA (if not already existing) and attach there
your patch.

Hi,
An update and another patch. I've found that doing GC before
attempting the file move/rename operation allows it to succeed in
every permutation I've tried so far. The patch implements this in
MaildirMessageMapper.updateFlags(), giving it 5 tries (this may be

Eric,
No worries - appreciate the keepalive ;)
Meanwhile, I was thinking on about the character-selection issue. I
really wonder if there's much point in making it a configurable
property, since there'd only be one very specific use-case for needing
to do so, and I can't see what reason a
Sorry for this late answer. You will get my answer in the coming days.

That's really good news.
I am not sure you fail on move. In the stacktrack you gave (yes, java
like hiding lines), the SEEN flag is set but the file renaming fails.

Hi,
I've made some progress insofar as I managed to complete a build from
trunk with my changes, and got mail being delivered to the WinMailDir
(like it ;)) via FetchMail.
I'm running into a few probably Windows-centric issues now though.
(This is on Win7 Pro incidentally.)
First, I h

Hi,
I've been looking at James as a replacement for our legacy
Windows-based email setup, at which point my hopes of a maildir-based
message store were dashed (because of a filesystem reserved character
(colon) in the spec).
Moving to maildir appealed to me because the legacy software use
