hi Timo, rolled back all stuff you recommended offlist

Problems described here

conversation with ralf, looks like your patch wasnt enough
i have a few mailboxes and folders now i cant fix
compressed files stay unreadable after move copy
by Maildir filename has wrong S value
i need some kind of mass repair actions etc , or some new patch
