Subject: [sup-talk] Cannot view old messages

I've got a strange problem:
I cannot view old messages in my mbox.

This mbox is several years old, and I imported it with sup-sync.
all messages showed up in inbox-mode, I can search it and messages are found,
but in thread-view mode the body of the message don't show up.
If I view the mbox directly (via less or so), I can read all messages, but it's a bit tedious ;-)

So why does sup search these messages, but don't show them?

Have you at some point been able to see them?  Could it be that the
mbox file has since be modified?  Then the offsets (thats afaik how
sup points to messages in mbox sources) stored in sup index for those
messages might be all wrong and sup can't find the raw message
anymore.

You could try backup index + dump + reindex mbox source with restore
from dump.
