I purposely closed sylpheed while running portupgrade, and the ONE mail that didn't disappear hadn't been looked at for months (not to mention I lost mails in two different folder). > I don't think you lost any mail. Fortunately you are correct here. I downgraded my sylpheed back to the previous version, and immediately when I opened those two folders, all the mails re-appeared. Also, the older sylpheed doesn't have any issues reading the headers for the mails in those folders. > This made me add another check step to my portupgrade procedures. > I check the list of ports to be upgraded and if any of them are > currently running, I shut them down before updating.
