Thunderbird MUA clients versions close to the same time. Reiterating: I switched IMAP-email-server/service providers AND upgraded (I tried to use some markup-language stuff in the content to make this easier.) I’ll even review it for you. The following procedure is more strictly-text-based and less “Github-issue-markup-text based,” because they (the procedure) was borrowed from a git commit (of my Thunderbird app-profile folder).Īnybody who wants to convert this into a proper markup (asciidoctor/markdown/etc) text file directions, preferably in a git repo, are more than welcome to do so.
If I can, I’ll turn this into a git-Asciidoctor-markup-pullable file so others can edit it (or just a wiki file/page someplace)… but no time to do that now. If the following procedure/directions do not make total sense and you’d like me to clarify/fix these directions, pls signal me with a reply (on this issue) with the details of what’s not clear to you, and I’ll try to fix the text. And I was able to recover and reuse all the years of historical, predictive data I had built up (in Nostalgy’s nfpredict.sqlite database file) saving me tremendous effort of not having to manually recreate all the predictive-move data for hundreds (maybe thousands?) of email folders. If needed: is it possible to rebuild the Statistical prediction “database” from one of these past, “clean” Thunderbird profile folders?
18G9323 UPGRADE
I also have several clean, historical copies of my Thunderbird data profile folder (which is where I presume Nostalgy keeps it’s prior stats data) saved, including but limited to prior to the Thunderbird upgrade (which includes v91.4.1 and v68.12.1 profile-folder saves).
I have years/decades of past moves/copies and therefore (theoretically) lots of stats data to draw from for Nostalgy’s Statistical prediction stuff. Important note: I switched IMAP servers, porting the email-folder data from the old to the new, deleting the old-imap-server’s Thunderbird-local-my-macOS account (named Personal), and creating a new account ( also named Personal, purposely substituting for the old account with the new server and the exact same email-folder data).ĭoes the above maneuver mess things up for Nostalgy/Nostalgy++? If so, is there a way to recover/rebuild/export+import the previously-working-on-previous-IMAP-server/account Nostalgy data so that the Statistical prediction can be reused on the new account (that has the same email-folder data)? Now the only folder reference(s) that come up for an email move/copy is the last folder that was moved/copied to (via a Nostalgy++ move/copy). (At least, that’s what I presume the Statistical prediction feature does if wrong, pls advise.) Its Statistical prediction for “moving/copying emails to a different folder” has worked marvelously, until I recently upgraded to v91.4.1. I’ve used Nostalgy/Nostalgy++ for years/decades. Is there some way I can fix/rebuild/etc my Thunderbid-Nostalgy++ Statistical prediction predictive performance?
