Is there a more stalbe version than the one from installed vi gem? Help/insight appreciated. As suggest in the new users guide I first ran sup-config, but that seem to create a bad config and sup crashed on start-up with: /var/lib/gems/1.8/gems/sup-0.12.1/lib/sup/util.rb:601:in `method_missing': no Redwood::HookManager instance defined in method call to run! (RuntimeError) from /var/lib/gems/1.8/gems/sup-0.12.1/bin/sup:370 from /var/lib/gems/1.8/bin/sup:19:in `load' from /var/lib/gems/1.8/bin/sup:19 I am happy to send the .sup directory along if anyone are interested. Figured there was nothing else to lose so I blew the .sup directory away, and found that it was auto-created on start-up. Nice. Next step was to add a source and the new users guide suggest using sup-add with maildir://path/to/a/filename. This fails with: allan@vent:~$ sup-add maildir://home/allan/mail/received /var/lib/gems/1.8/gems/sup-0.12.1/lib/sup/index.rb:106:in `initialize': DatabaseLockError: Unable to get write lock on /home/allan/.sup/xapian: already locked (IOError) from /var/lib/gems/1.8/gems/sup-0.12.1/lib/sup/index.rb:106:in `new' from /var/lib/gems/1.8/gems/sup-0.12.1/lib/sup/index.rb:106:in `load_index' from /var/lib/gems/1.8/gems/sup-0.12.1/lib/sup/index.rb:93:in `load' from /var/lib/gems/1.8/gems/sup-0.12.1/bin/sup-add:80 from /var/lib/gems/1.8/bin/sup-add:19:in `load' from /var/lib/gems/1.8/bin/sup-add:19 so I quit sup and try it again and get this error: allan@vent:~$ sup-add maildir://home/allan/mail/received [Mon Jan 23 01:41:06 -0500 2012] Flushing Xapian updates to disk. This may take a while... /var/lib/gems/1.8/gems/sup-0.12.1/lib/sup/maildir.rb:17:in `initialize': maildir URI cannot have a host: home (ArgumentError) from /var/lib/gems/1.8/gems/sup-0.12.1/bin/sup-add:100:in `new' from /var/lib/gems/1.8/gems/sup-0.12.1/bin/sup-add:100 from /var/lib/gems/1.8/gems/sup-0.12.1/bin/sup-add:87:in `each' from /var/lib/gems/1.8/gems/sup-0.12.1/bin/sup-add:87 from /var/lib/gems/1.8/bin/sup-add:19:in `load' from /var/lib/gems/1.8/bin/sup-add:19 sup-add --help suggest a single slash alternative syntax which works (not sure if this a code or doc defect): For Maildir folders, use the form: maildir:; or maildir:// Next step was to convince sup to use a maildir instead of a mbox for sent folder. Changing .sup/config.yml to: :sent_source: maildir:/home/allan/mail/sent seemed to be ignord even after adding it as a source as suggested in the email archives. Then I tried some of the searches listed in the "Searching your mail" wiki. In particular I was trying to find all messages and came up short. I tried the date searches (after:yesterday, before:tomorrow etc) but they returned nothing. I was able to pull up things by lables, and was able to search with from:allan OR to:allan. It puzzled me a bit that OR had to be upper case. In writing this message I postposted (P) and I thought recalled the message with R and then selected the newest version but the UI gives me the impression that I end up with a draft each time I postpose a message. Maybe this is a feature and I am just missing something here. I know Q quits and q asks for confirmation. Is there a way to not have q ask for confirmation? Sorry if this is documented somewhere, still going through the mail archive and wiki.
