I noticed that hyperkitty_import has issues with In-Reply-To header when importing archives downloaded from Hyperkitty itself.
In some cases in_reply_to field in hyperkitty_email table will have extra white space at the start. For example In-Reply-To: CAFV2YWOfZRHEDTTz3F6Emnwx8Sh4_Ar7+JMR7XvOAD8_eOjqaQ@mail.gmail.com will be saved as ' CAFV2YWOfZRHEDTTz3F6Emnwx8Sh4_Ar7+JMR7XvOAD8_eOjqaQ'.
It turns out HK strips the angle brackets < >
when internally storing the message-id and in-reply-to header. It adds them back to Message-ID when exporting but doesn't add it back to In-Reply-To. I have opened 1 for the issue.
Because of that, when the header is folded, an additional whitespace is added to the start resulting in broken threads.
This results in broken threads, as parent of this message cannot be found.
I also noticed that hyperkitty_import doesn't have this problem with archives from MM2, but in MM2 archives, message id in in-reply-to header is surrounded with brackets, like this: In-Reply-To: <CAFV2YWOfZRHEDTTz3F6Emnwx8Sh4_Ar7+JMR7XvOAD8_eOjqaQ@mail.gmail.com>
When I look at original email source, in-reply-to header doesn't have brackets; it looks like in the archive made by HK.
Is the issue here with import or export (download) process? Is hyperkitty_import right tool for migrating lists from one MM3 server to another?
I was thinking should I post this to the mm3-users list or here, I hope I made a right decision.
