Hi everyone,
I lost my mail server access… I’d like to save the few mails stored in K-9 for reference somewhere more accessible to me (ideally in maildir or mbox format). My phone is rooted, because I didn’t pay to just use it but to fully own it, which might help now. There are some files in a cache directory in /data/data/… :

The content is not in a human readable format:
‘…JVBERi0xLjcNCiW1tbW1DQoxIDAgb2JqDQo8PC9UeXBlL0NhdGFsb2cvUGFnZXMgMiAwIFIvTGFu…’
Looking there I also found folders like the following
/data/data/…/databases
893e8446-b48c-410d-bb4d-08d1f8443b99.db_att/
These folders seem to correlate with the mail accounts I have set up. Files in there are somewhat human readable (HTML representation of my received mails… yay). Unfortunately the mail headers are not in these files.
Does anyone know where to find the headers? And maybe corresponding attachments? And does anyone know the purpose/difference of .db .db-shm and .db-wal files also in this ‘databases’ folder?
Maybe this topic is relevant to other who lost access to their server and did out of various reasons not make a backup before or just miss an export for not only the settings but also only the mail? I would be very thankful for any help
