NAME

6       sup-sync-back-maildir  -  Export  Xapian  entries to Maildir sources on
7       disk

SYNOPSIS

10       sup-sync-back-maildir [options] [source uri...]
11

DESCRIPTION

13       This script parses the Xapian entries for a given  Maildir  source  and
14       renames  (changes  maildir flags) e-mail files on disk according to the
15       labels stored in the index.  It will export all the changes you made in
16       Sup to your Maildirs so that they can be propagated to your IMAP server
17       with e.g. offlineimap.
18
19       The script also merges some Maildir flags into Sup such as R  (replied)
20       and P (passed, forwarded), for instance suppose you have an e-mail file
21       like this: foo_bar:2,FRS (flags are favorite, replied,  seen)  and  its
22       Xapian  entry  has  labels  `starred', the merge operation will add the
23       `replied' label to the Xapian entry.
24
25       If you choose not to merge (-m) you will lose information  (`replied'),
26       and in the previous example the file will be renamed to foo_bar:2,FS.
27
28       Running   this   script   is  strongly  recommended  when  setting  the
29       “sync_back_to_maildir” option from false  to  true  in  config.yaml  or
30       changing the “sync_back” flag to true for a source in sources.yaml.
31
32       If no source is given, the default behavior is to sync back all Maildir
33       sources marked as usual and that have not disabled sync back using  the
34       configuration parameter sync_back = false in sources.yaml.
