Well, sorting by Date, mutt lists your post at position:
33858 L 231118 Peter Ehlert (1.2K) Re: IMAP vs POP was Thunderbird vs Claws Mail
out of a total of 33910 on the server (in the UK). The posts are also
all on this machine here:
~/.cache/mutt/imaps:ABC@DEF.co.uk@GHI.co.uk:993/INBOX$ ls -1 | wc -l
35700
~/.cache/mutt/imaps:ABC@DEF.co.uk@GHI.co.uk:993/INBOX$ du -sh
630M .
~/.cache/mutt/imaps:ABC@DEF.co.uk@GHI.co.uk:993/INBOX$
(Some posts in my cache are orphaned, for straightforward reasons
I won't bother to explain here.)
Cheers,
