Greetings all,
thanks to bleedwood's and Lamia's links to tutorial, I have set up the mail/mbsync to one of my accounts. Regarding configuration, the terms "Master" and "Slave" have been deprecated, but it was a trivial correction.
It appears that the folders are being synchronized, but form time to time a message:
appears in-between the cryptic:
There is not much information about this, but as best understood an UID is a persistent unique identifier across sessions when syncing mail, which is validated by the UIDVALIDITY. However, since this is a first session, the explanation makes no sense.
I also found some indication, that the UIDVALIDITY message may be caused by empty folders with no messages. This makes more sense to me, as there are no folders on the Near machine, they are being created upon download. However, I would have thought that the mail/mbsync should be aware of that.
Kindest regards,
M

Code:
Maildir notice: no UIDVALIDITY, creating new.
Code:
C: 0/1 B: 1/10 F: +0/0 *0/0 #0/0 N: +0/0 *1/1 #0/0.
