I have an archive mailbox that contains in excess of 100,000 mail messages
(stored in maildir) that accidentally got marked as unread. It is too large for
my mail client to select all the mail and mark it as read without throttling.
Is there a simple way that I can use doveadm or something to simply mark every
message in that maildir as read? Or do I just loop through every message and
move it to <messaage>+S?
find ~/Maildir/.Archive/cur/* -type f -name ?1*:2? --exec mv {} {}S \;

They didn't need to believe in them. They knew they existed. They just wished they didn't.
