+I looked at the mails that are still ignored after upgrading GMime to\r
+latest version, and I think I have found what they have in common. All\r
+of my ignored emails are from 2010-2011, and for some reason these mails\r
+contain a line like this:\r
+\r
+>From username Wed Sep 28 16:43:49 2011\r
+\r
+somewhere among the headers. Note the '>' at the beginning of the line.\r
+The mails that are still ignored after upgrading GMime are those where\r
+this line happens to be the first line. Also, all of them have\r
+attachments for some reason. That line certainly doesn't look right, and\r
+I don't know where it came from. It might be some byproduct of mail\r
+redirection, since it shows my username, but the mails are not sent by\r
+me.\r
+\r
+I moved these problematic lines to the second line of each message, and\r
+now they are imported without problems. I probably won't file a bug for\r
+GMime because I have no idea whether this is just some oddity caused by\r
+my mail setup. Let this information reside here in case someone else has\r
+a similar problem.\r
