-Upgrading from plain text to SQLite cache format
-------------------------------------------------
-
-OfflineImap uses a cache to store the last known status of mails (flags etc).
-
-Historically that has meant plain text files, but recently we introduced
-sqlite-based cache, which helps with performance and CPU usage on large
-folders.  Here is how to upgrade existing plain text cache installations to
-sqlite based one:
-
-1. Sync to make sure things are reasonably similar.
-
-2. Change the account section to "status_backend = sqlite".
-
-3. Run a new sync.
-+
-This will convert your plain text cache to an sqlite cache (but leave
-the old plain text cache around for easy reverting). This must be quick and
-not involve any mail up/downloading.
-
-4. See if it works! :-)
-
-5. If it does not work, go back to the old version or set "status_backend = plain"
-
-6. Delete the old text cache files.
-
-Once you are sure it works, you can delete the
-~/.offlineimap/Account-foo/LocalStatus folder (the new cache will be in the
-LocalStatus-sqlite folder)
