[Bug 1414615] [NEW] 3.20-5 fails when using -m

 

Public bug reported:

I guess a common invocation would be to convert the /var/mail/mbox to ~/Maildir using the -m parameter.
But this is broken in version 3.20-5 (it worked in 3.20-4).
The code that makes this fail is removed in 3.20-7. I haven't tested 3.20-7 otherwise.

rp@www:~$ mb2md -m
Converting /var/mail/rp to maildir: /home/rp/Maildir
Source Mbox is /var/mail/rp
Target Maildir is /home/rp/Maildir 
Fatal: unable to open input mailbox file: /home/rp//var/mail/rp ! 

It isn't even possible to make it work by specifying the file
explicitly.

rp@www:~$ mb2md -m -s /var/mail/rp
Converting /var/mail/rp to maildir: /home/rp/Maildir
Source Mbox is /var/mail/rp
Target Maildir is /home/rp/Maildir 
Fatal: unable to open input mailbox file: /home/rp//var/mail/rp ! 

Expected behavior:
Converting /var/mail/rp to maildir: /home/rp/Maildir
Source Mbox is /var/mail/rp
Target Maildir is /home/rp/Maildir
