Added messages / total files count difference.

Added messages / total files count difference.

[Tomi Ollila]

Hi

I get this output:

$ notmuch new --verbose
Found 15559 total files (that's not much mail).
Processed 15559 total files in 5m 53s (43 files/sec.).
Added 15546 new messages to the database.

$ find * -type f | wc
  15559   15559  529027

How can I determine which 13 files were dropped. All of those
15559 files should be mails. I tried to check through mail files that
have no 'Subject:' header but those were (at least one) indexed. Could
it be about duplicate Message-ID: or something ?

$ notmuch --version
notmuch 0.7-7-g68e8560

It is about duplicate Message-ID:s

It would be nice that 'notmuch new' printes information about this
if this were to happen (as I recall it does when new file found
is not (considered as) a mail file).

The steps I took to figure this out (not all iterations with & without
'wc':s shown) at the end of this email.
