But no one has answered my question about how do I move a directory's

to move the contents of the spam directory by first deleting the
contents of the spam-hold directory, and the move the contents of the
spam directory into the spam-hold directory, a thing that is repeated
each 24 hours by the script that drives sa-learn spam, and sa-learn ham
over selected directory's.
I had to pull teeth w/o novocain just to find out how to send kmail a go
get mail command from my mailwatcher script, which uses inotifywait to
see the closing of a mailfile in /var/spool/mail as its indicator that a
new mail has arrived from a separate fetchmail->procmail process.
If those rm's and mv's from outside of kmails knowledge, were converted
to dbus commands to be executed by kmail, then nothing would disturb its
database but kmails own actions.
So, where do I find the real docs on how kmail responds to commands sent
over dbus? That seems to be a secret, and it sucks dead toads thru soda
straws. I just now rechecked the Handbook, and it has zero mention of
dbus. So please explain how, and I WILL fix my scripts.
3 hours later its behaving itself. Nothing from
kmail is now
anywhere near the top of an htop list. cpu temps are down about 8C.
I think I've fixed it!
Gene, it is what I said before - you should never ever mess up with
the Maildir content, except via a single interface, be it imap, or
kmail. Let only one application work at a time.
