No. This problem is not reproducible with the header_cache config variable set to the default (i.e. header caching disabled). If I delete the existing file that stores header cache information, I am able to open the mailbox, and a new header cache file is being created. I am also able to open the mailbox with this new header cache file. So this would be an easy and simple workaround for this bug. To delete the header cache and start all over again. One thing that caught my attention was: that this new header cache file is much smaller than the old one. I don't know how information is added and appended to the header cache file, but thought I should point this out. new file: $ ls -s .muttcache/2b1eae904a4fb244ca14122c885924ea 5256 .muttcache/2b1eae904a4fb244ca14122c885924ea old file: $ ls -s .muttcache/2b1eae904a4fb244ca14122c885924ea 11180 .muttcache/2b1eae904a4fb244ca14122c885924ea Just to see if something was wrong with the old header cache file (some external tampering which caused increase in size), I looked up the size of an older header cache file (from a week ago) and the sizes are close. older file: $ ls -s .muttcache/2b1eae904a4fb244ca14122c885924ea 11068 .muttcache/2b1eae904a4fb244ca14122c885924ea Since this bug seems to be related to the header cache, is there anyway I can generate some debug output related to it?
