NewBackup backup vmail problem

[idovecer]

Today I tried just to recover some emails and I noticed that all files (email) files have date created not when email is received and created but date of backup?

Now when you restore all this emails, they are sorted in email client as they are received at the day of backup.

Is there any solution to repair this?
Tnx.

Now I see that there is possible solution, all email files has timestamp in the filename.
I will try to solve this out somehow.

Simple solution with bash script,
just start this script in every folder:

Code Select Expand


#/bin/bash
#starting with 1* because all filenames starts with 1
for file in 1*;
do
    echo "Processing $file.."
   
# getting timestamp from filename, first 10 characters
tstamp=$(echo "${file}" | cut -c1-10)

# set timestamp to file
touch -d @"$tstamp" "$file"
done

This is an interesting problem. Thanks for sharing this with us. I will keep this in mind if I ever need to manually import backed up mail

Did you file a bug report? From what I gather, only a few staff members are active in this forum, so posting a problem here and expecting staff to act on it is a bit like shouting into the wind.
