I'm using emacs 24.5.1 on OSX with mu4e and mbsync. I'm synchronising with my imac and laptop so maybe it's the same error as mentioned here, but no one has posted a solution.
My specific error is that during the sync I'm receiving the following:
mbsync error: UID is 3 beyond highest assigned UID 1
mbsync error: UID is 7 beyond highest assigned UID 6
Any ideas on what's causing this and how to solve it?
I had a similar issue with a quite big inbox with lots of nested folders. I wanted to go for the solution @unhammer provided but I had a hard time finding the problematic message. (grepping UID didn't help because I had tons of e-mails with the same UID). What I did was to note the number of the problematic box.
Then I ran with verbose option
mbsync -V mymailchannel
. The verbose option outputs so much information quite quickly. But I knew where to stop, so I stopped when we passed the number 133. (Of course, you can write it to a file and just grep it with the few lines above).And there was my problematic folder:
And stipped off everything from
,U=22
in my problematic file as @unhammer suggested and my problem was fixed.
