Sup Edward,

Thank you for your feedback!

I'm impressed, I never experienced such crashes, it is quite stable
here but I use only very basic hooks.

Hmm, strange, do you use the latest commits of the branch? I pushed a
fix for deleted mails about 10 days ago.

The mails that show up again don't have the deleted flag at all?

I did not test the code with hooks, what do you suggest for this one?

I never use this keybinding but indeed I noticed that pressing '@' two
times in a row was not showing anything.

I will try to track down these bugs.

Thanks again!
