+Title: Mu 1.7.23 Causing Maildir Corruption
+Author: Matthew Smith <matthew@gentoo.org>
+Posted: 2022-06-26
+Revision: 1
+News-Item-Format: 2.0
+Display-If-Installed: =net-mail/mu-1.7.23
+
+Development versions of mu between 1.7.18 and 1.7.25 (only 1.7.23 was ever
+packaged in Gentoo) have a bug causing mail file names to sometimes get mangled
+after moving messages between directories. Symptoms include unread messages
+never being marked as read.
+
+Affected messages have the ':2,' flag appended multiple times. Using the
+following commands, users can remove the extra flags.
+
+ find ~/Maildir -name '*:2,*:*' |
+ sed "s/\(\([^:]*\)\(:2,\)\{1,\}\(:2,.*$\)\)/mv '\0' '\2\4'/" \
+ > rename.sh
+ # review rename.sh. empty file indicates that you are unaffected
+ sh rename.sh
