I have been through exactly that about ten minutes ago to get rid of >40k index entries in my sup setup. Good timing! ;) What I did: * stopped the periodic polling of my offlineimap, just in case, to keep the sources from changing. * made a backup of my .sup/ folder, just in case. * created a label dump file using sup-dump. * deleted the .sup/xapian folder. * run sup-sync with the --restore option, pointing to the dump file. The index was re-created from the dump file, but only taking into account the files that were currently available from the sources. Worked like a charm. Better, in fact, since charms don't work at all. Ahem. Yes, it would be great if there were a less convoluted way to do this.
