  Ok, I'm going to ask various questions. I don't have any specific ideas yet, so this is just an attempt to get some hints.

  Was the move(s) done using MailMate?

  Are both source and destination mailbox online (no grey mailbox state with 'offline' in parenthesis)?

  What are the names of the source and destination mailboxes?

  What is the server address (you can use private email if you do not want to state it here)?

  Do you still have a mailbox with missing messages?

  Can you reproduce the problem?

  Outlook restart: That is to be expected. Most email clients only check for new messages every x minutes except for the INBOX which is typically monitored using a so-called IDLE state. This is also true for MailMate.

  Hi,

  1. Was the move(s) done using MailMate?
     -> Yes
  2. Are both source and destination mailbox online (no grey mailbox state with 'offline' in parenthesis)?
     -> Yes
  3. What are the names of the source and destination mailboxes?
     -> Source is 'Inbox', destination mailbox is my customer's name so sorry I cann't list it here. I remember that I have this problem with that destination mailbox twice.
  4. What is server address?
     -> Will answer via email. BTW, how can I answer via private email?
  5. Do you still have a mailbox with missing messages?
     -> No
  6. Can you reproduce the problem?
     -> No, it sometimes occurs.

  About Outlook restart: usually restart is a solution but it seems that restarting doesnot cure this for MailMate. I know that email client usually have a seperate database for indexing/searching and we sometimes need to reindex it after a crash or so to make it work correctly, that's why I ask for a kind of re-index/re-synchronize feature. How do you think about it?

  Ok, 3. may indicate that the problem is somehow related to the mailbox
  name. There is a “Help ▸ Send Feedback...” menu item within
  MailMate you can use.

  With regard to 5., does this mean that the messages eventually appear in
  the mailbox in MailMate?

  The next version of MailMate is likely to include a feature for
  rebuilding the database, but this is intended for database corruption
  issues which can, e.g., arise when restoring MailMate files from a
  backup. The problem described in this ticket indicates a bug in
  MailMate. I would prefer fixing the bug rather than require users to
  re-index anything. That said, “resetting” a mailbox could be useful
  in other scenarios, so I've made a note of that.

  • State changed from “new” to “duplicate”

  This is most likely a duplicate of ticket #183.
