Scripting Problem

[Ulrich W. <ul...@wi...>]

Hi,

I use isync (version 1.4.4) to backup my email to my local NAS. It runs 
in a docker container every five minutes.

I try to determine if the sync was successful by looking at the return 
value. Unfortunately I do get a return value of 1 all the time. The only 
error I can see in the logs is, isync tries to access  
/root/Maildir/.mbsyncstate although it runs as user abc.

Any ideas or hints are welcome! What am I doing wrong?

Cron script

    mbsync -V -a -c /config/mbsync.rc
    RC=$?
    echo "INFO: Completed sync.sh Result $RC"


I can only see one error message and that is about the sync state
