Description luminarior 2015-05-18 14:17:33 UTC

I added folder processing rule on the path "My Feeds//"Ведомости". Новости". It worked for a while and then it stopped working all of a sudden. Now, when I right click -> choosing Processing... on "My Feeds//"Ведомости". Новости" folder I get empty list of processing rules there (only (New) (New) template is there). I have the following options in this files:

matcherrc:
[#rssyl/My Feeds//"Ведомости". Новости]
enabled rulename "remove-old-mails" age_greater 15 & ~unread delete

folderitemrc:
[#rssyl/My Feeds//"Ведомости". Новости]
enable_processing=0
enable_processing_when_opening=1

I have now more than 5k old messages in this folder. How to easily investigate/resolve this issue?

Have you unloaded and loaded the rssyl plugin? This causes the processing rules to not be activated. It is a bug I noticed a while back, but never got around to looking at.

Restarting Claws Mail is a workaround for now.

Nope, I haven't. I may recompiled/reinstalled claws-mail due to inclusion of the RSSyl-related patch into main tree. "Ведомости" site have changed a bit (redesign), but RSS is still work for me from that site (wich folder has processing rule) and for other sites (wich haven't).

It doesn't help in my case (Gentoo Linux with mail-client/claws-mail-3.11.1-r1 there). I have just tried to restart Claws mail -> it didn't help. Then I tried to unload and load RSSyl plugin -> it didn't help either. Still 5k+ messages in that folder while looking inside that path (enable_processing_when_opening=1).

I get an empty processing rules list too, here, if I rename a parent folder. Renaming back the parent folder to its original name (and restarting CM) and the processing rules are back.
