Product:Mail Product Version:Mail 8.0 (1974.6)
Classification:Crash/Hang/Data Loss Reproducible:Always
 
Summary:

The content of mailboxes created locally (for archiving purpose) is not longer readable on Mail 8.0.

Steps to Reproduce:

1. Unzip the content of attached file, and move it into ~/Library/Mail/V2/Mailboxes
2. Open Mail.app
3. On the sidebar, there should be an « On my Mac » section, with a mailbox « Archives » containing only a submailbox named « Archives 1 ».

Expected Results:

Selecting the « Archives 1 » mailbox should display all the mails in this mailbox.

Actual Results:

Selecting the « Archives 1 » mailbox displays nothing in the mails list or the mail viewer, as if the mailbox had 0 items.

The mails are still preserved individually inside the mailbox though, so data are not lost, just « not displayed in the app».

Regression:

This used to work on Mac OS 10.9 Mavericks.

Notes:

These mailboxes were probably created on older version of Mac OS X (Snow Leopard or Lion).
