Empty Mailbox Showing 2/8 ??
Hello!

I've got a user with an empty IN mailbox/folder which is showing 2/8 on their mail count (2 unread / 8 in folder) - but it's empty!

I have run consistency.pl on it with the fix option but the problem is still there. I am unsure how many other users on my system it is affectiing.

Any idea how to fix it?

Do they have threaded mode turned on in that folder? That's usually the reason behind mystery messages.

Hi Adrian

Yip, I just logged in as that user and changed the threaded setting - now the messages are showing fine.

Why don't they show with threaded turned on? Is that a bug, or is it meant to work that way?

It's a bug in the threading code that can't be easily fixed. The reason it happens is because the root message of the thread(s) aren't in the folder.
