* [sup-talk] sup finds exception and exits

   I have been using sup for about six months and today it started
   having fatal problems.  I'll appreciate any suggestions. 

   Below are the error messages. I should clarify that while I don't
   delete email from my mailbox the policy for the mail account 
   is that after three months messages are deleted.  This might be
   relevant since sup exits while polling for new messages in a thread
   which contains at least one message older than 3 months, i.e.
   while tryint to load a message which has been deleted.

   Thanks,

   Susana.

My experience is that sup has dealt with this gracefully (message is
deleted from the actual source, but not from the index) and displays a
message about it "not playing nice with others", but it still should be
avoided if possible.

Are you deleting the message from the index as well or just from the
source?

Cheers,
jonathan

At glance it doesn't look like the error has anything to do with
deleted mail.  But I could just be terribly wrong.  :)

Are you able to sup-dump your tags and reindex?  That might help you.

For instructions on how to do that, see sup FAQ
<http://sup.rubyforge.org/FAQ.txt> questions "How do I back up my
index?" and "How do I rebuild the index completely?".  You might want
to backup your ~/.sup/ferret just in case you would like to go back.

Uough!  That policy really sucks.  :(

If I had to work with something like that I'd prolly mirror incoming
mails to my own mail archive (using fetchmail, offlineimap or similar)

Reformatted excerpts from Susana Core's message of 2009-12-07:

Based on the backtrace I think you have a fairly old version of Sup. Can
you try it with 0.9.1 please?

If the problem persists, please submit a bug report at
http://masanjin.net/sup-bugs/. Thanks!
