Hello, this is what I posted to the YAM mailing list to bring more light into the YAM insists on rebuilding indexes system. Unfortunately I did not yet get the post back so I am unsure whether the YAM mailing list is operational. I just also wanted to ask here: Anybody running YAM on Richard's UAE 0.8.25 port on a daily basis with decent speed and without spontaneous rebuilds of indexes on every new start? I would like to compare setups. I like to resolve this soon. Regards, Martin ---------- Weitergeleitete Nachricht ---------- Subject: When does YAM rebuild its indexes? Date: Donnerstag, 22. Juli 2004 20:46 From: Martin Steigerwald <Martin@xxxxxxxxxxxx> To: yam@xxxxxxxxxxxxx Hello, I am currently debugging a problem, where YAM insists on recreating the indexes of some mail folders everytime I start it. Its happening under Rich's UAE port 0.8.25 under Debian Linux with SGI's XFS as host filing system on an used IBM ThinkPad T23 I got cheeply. I just copied my YAM messagebase from my A4000 to the laptop. Currently I have some Amiga clock synchronizations problems with that setup. Either the Amiga clock goes to fast or when I use "timehack" on the Amiga side, its going alright but its 2 hours off since the hardware clock is set to UTC. When YAM recreates the indexes of several folders during startup it also looses the mail attributes. All e-mails are marked as unread then. Well I don't think that this attribute is save in the filecomments, but I made sure that the files where copied with Amiga protection bits and file comments. Now I wonder whether YAM just rebuilds indexes cause of the wrong going clock or whether there might be another problem that for example UAE does not run reliably under SGI's XFS? I did not experience any other problem till now tough. Anyone here you runs YAM under UAE and had this problem? In the end of my time at H&P I used an Amithlon machine with YAM and there were no problems. Next thing I will try is getting that clock synchronization issue fixed (I got a UAE patch from Toni Wilen), install SnoopDOS and try to setup a RDB hardfile or real partition for the Amiga to test whether it works differently.
