Greetings;
I just noticed that 1 of the 2 lists I had sorted into subdirs by the year, was placing new incoming messages in a subdir I had prepared to hold the 2019 messges, even though the filter rules said to put new incoming that matched that filer rule, into the main folder.
So I shift marked the 2019 folders content a month at a time and drug it back to the main emc folder, leaving the 2019 folder empty, so I deleted in and its 3 subdirs. This of course crashed kmail. On restart, its now doing 95%+ but is doing it for only a few milliseconds per core, switching faster than gkrellm can accurately track. But for some reason its skipping core2? ?? ??? And then it crashed again, and I submitted that report. Now on the restart, which nicely saved this message, its back to using all 4 cores for a couple seconds each. But I mentioned it, so it just stuck on core0 for about 15 seconds.
Now trying to get some clues from lsof and a few filter stages of grep, I find one instance per year for the emc folder, but the other, "coco" folder and all its subdirs will need a final |wc -l showing 170 instances. I just found I'd not nukes the coco's 2019 indice stuff, so one more restart. But I'll send this first...
Cheers, Gene Heskett
