Subject: bug#25126: 26.0.50; Gnus reacts poorly to email flags being changed behind its back
Date: Tue, 06 Dec 2016 12:14:22 -0800 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <r0254m2gizmp.fsf@dancol.org> (raw)
I'm trying an email setup that involves pointing Gnus as a maildir tree
and having mbsync run from cron and, well, sync with an IMAP server.
Sometimes, if I open a mail group in Gnus, read a message, and before
leaving that mail group, go read that message on another client, the
cron job will change the message-file's flags behind Gnus's back,
causing Gnus to raise an error when I try to leave the group,
complaining that a message file it thought existed no longer exists
(because it's been renamed).
Can Gnus cope better with other programs modifying messages concurrently?
