Hi, as the title says, I have some problems/questions, so, here they are.
I find sup pretty slow : if I lanch sup, archive every mail presented
to me (53) and exit, it takes roughly 7 seconds to save the changes,
is this expected ?
I use an mbox source (gmail account via mpop) and there are 26000
mails in index, I'm on Ubuntu 8.04
I thought it could be because most of the mail are in the inbox, so I
tried to archive them, which led me to the problem : how to do it ?
I tried "ruby -Ilib bin/sup-sync --all --archive" which lasted 17
minutes, but didn't seem to do anything.
I also have warning during the sup-sync command :
[Wed Dec 19 12:39:19 +0100 2007] warning: error
(Iconv::InvalidEncoding) decoding message body from unicode-1-1-utf-7:
invalid encoding ("UTF-8//IGNORE", "unicode-1-1-utf-7")
any idea ?
and it seems to be "faking message-id for message from : sup-faked-"
alot, is that normal, or is my source the problem ?
thank you for reading :-)

Saving state back to disk is slow, mainly because Ferret (the underlying
search engine) doesn't have a modify command; it only has delete and
add. Since the message body is not stored explicitly in the index, this
requires loading the entire message, parsing it, etc. for every single
label change.

Sup-sync is for syncing the index with a particular source. It's not the
right tool for the job here. Actually there is no right tool for this
job yet, so I will add one. (It is possible to do this currently with
the development console, but there should be a better way.)

That just means you have a message with a weird encoding. No harm done,
we just use it unconverted.

That means you have some email without (required!) message-id headers.
Typically these are the output of a mail client or mail script that was
written by incompetents.

I've added a bin/sup-tweak-labels script to git, which allows adding to
or removing labels from all messages for a given source. This should be
directly applicable to this type of problem.
