Package: syncmaildir
Version: 1.2.5-1
Severity: normal
Usertags: pca.it-synchronization

Hi there!

After having played a bit with Dovecot's dsync (see #680992 and
#684499), I have now started to use smd-loop on a daily basis
(~/.smd/loop contains "15 30 default"), started by .bashrc:

--8<---------------cut here---------------start------------->8---
if [ -z "$debian_chroot" ] && [ ! -r /etc/debian_chroot ]; then
    if ! ps -C smd-loop >/dev/null; then
        smd-loop &
    fi
fi
--8<---------------cut here---------------end--------------->8---

However, I get duplicate emails for no obvious reasons.  I know that at
least one duplicate come from my synced machine because of its filename:

  Maildir/cur/1345032816.1118_0.mantissa:2,
  Maildir/cur/1345042069.M833566P8146.gismo,S=3250,W=3324:2,
  Maildir/cur/1345042092.M850696P3594.mantissa,S=3250:2,
  Maildir/cur/1345042092.M850697P3594.mantissa,S=3250:2,

I have not done anything special with the above mailbox except accessing
it directly from the server between two smd-pull runs.  This is
something vital for me: I want to be able to access any copy of my
mailbox whenever/wherever I want.

While the above happened on gismo (my main laptop, sid with no fancy DE)
with mantissa being the server (with 1.2.5-1~bpo60+1), I experienced the
same on a wheezy "standard" installation (GNOME3, see #682737) where
smd-loop was started by the smd-applet: I am sure that at least at the
first synchronization I got duplicates.  Given that my mailbox is quite
big (see #659263), I copied it to the new machine before starting
smd-pull: however, this latter took more than 2 hours and I needed
different tries to have it finished (the problem was the network
connectivity).  I would guess that stopping an smd run leaves cruft
behind, which results in duplicates.

Is there a way to debug what is going wrong?

Thx, bye,
Gismo / Luca
