Hi, I try to homogenize the use of labels from my different accounts. As a
first step, I wanted to remove all unnecessary labels and inbox by:
/usr/local/sup/bin/sup-tweak-labels --all-sources -r gmail_archive,
inbox_archive, sentg_archive, senti_archive, sentm_archive, inbox
Found 6000 documents across 18 sources. Scanning...
Scanned 4000 / 6000 messages and changed 4000.
Optimizing index...

looks fine. Well, I run this a few times (I got >20k mails), until I get:
Found 0 documents across 18 sources. Scanning...
Scanned 0 / 0 messages and changed 0.
[2020-07-08 09:07:11 -0500] Flushing Xapian updates to disk. This may take

and
sup-sync
Now, my inbox in sup should be empty, isn't it?
Unfortunately, there are still 21635 messages in index.
Anything I am missing?
Best regards,
Robert

Hi Robert,

There's a distinction between:
- "in index" - This is the total number of messages that Sup knows
about, i.e., all messages that have been indexed by Xapian. This is
expected to be a very big, and usually ever-increasing, number. :-)
- "in inbox" - Messages with the special label "Inbox". These will
appear in the "index-mode" buffer (the default buffer shown when you
launch sup).
To see some very approximate counts for messages in each label, type "L"
(capital-L) in index-mode, which will prompt "Show threads with label
(enter for listing)" - then press enter without specifying a label.
Normal labels are shown, as are the special labels (e.g., "Inbox").
Kind regards,
Iain

Hi Robert,

There should be no additional steps necessary - "sup-tweak-labels"
should be all that's needed.
I think that I've spotted the problem. The comma-separated list for the
"-r" (--remove) parameter can't have any spaces between the label names.
Please could you try this instead (spaces removed):
/usr/local/sup/bin/sup-tweak-labels --all-sources -r gmail_archive,inbox_archive,sentg_archive,senti_archive,sentm_archive,inbox
Kind regards,
Iain

Excellent, you were completely right, Iain!
For the first time in about a decade I had a 0 inbox ;-).
Best regards,
Robert

That's great! It's probably been the best part of a decade for me too
since I was at Inbox Zero. Maybe I should also run sup-tweak-labels. :-)
Kind regards,
Iain
