Package: claws-mail Version: 3.8.1-2 Severity: normal Tags: upstream Dear Maintainer,
* What led up to the situation? I have several gmail accounts configured in claws-mail, using IMAP, and set to download all messages to disk and also leave copies on the server. When I click an "INBOX" folder label in the folder list, claws will immediately check for new messages on the server for that account. That's great. However, as it's doing this, it "hides" everything in the message list, and I cannot use the program in any meaningful way until it has finished checking the server (which can take some time, I believe possibly relating to this bug: http://www.thewildbeast.co.uk/claws-mail/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=3049 ). * What exactly did you do (or not do) that was effective (or ineffective)? * What was the outcome of this action? * What outcome did you expect instead? Working in Offline Mode behaves as expected, with no delay or loss of access to the message list. It does not resolve the issue, though, as I would like to have this access when in online mode. I would greatly prefer if claws operated while checking the server much like Evolution does (a program from which I am a refugee, as I simply could not put up with all the serious bugs - worse ones than this, for sure). In that, it gladly displays the cached message list and allows you to open, delete, forward, or otherwise manipulate cached messages while it is querying the server. While the server exchange is happening, it simply adds the new messages to the message list on the fly. Thank you all so much for such a wonderful program, I really do love it! I hope I can work with you all to make it even better. -- System Information: Debian Release: 7.4 APT prefers stable-updates APT policy: (500, 'stable-updates'), (500, 'stable') Architecture: amd64 (x86_64) Kernel: Linux 3.2.0-4-amd64 (SMP w/4 CPU cores) Locale: LANG=en_US.UTF-8, LC_CTYPE=en_US.UTF-8 (charmap=UTF-8) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/dash Versions of packages claws-mail depends on: ii libc6 2.13-38+deb7u1 ii libcairo2 1.12.2-3 ii libcompfaceg1 1:1.5.2-5 ii libdbus-glib-1-2 0.100.2-1 ii libenchant1c2a 1.6.0-7 ii libetpan15 1.0-5 ii libgdk-pixbuf2.0-0 2.26.1-1 ii libglib2.0-0 2.33.12+really2.32.4-5 ii libgnutls26 2.12.20-8 ii libgtk2.0-0 2.24.10-2 ii libice6 2:1.0.8-2 ii libldap-2.4-2 2.4.31-1+nmu2 ii libpango1.0-0 1.30.0-1 ii libpisock9 0.12.5-5 ii libsm6 2:1.2.1-2 ii xdg-utils 1.1.0~rc1+git20111210-6 Versions of packages claws-mail recommends: ii aspell-en [aspell-dictionary] 7.1-0-1 ii claws-mail-i18n 3.8.1-2 ii xfonts-100dpi 1:1.0.3 ii xfonts-75dpi 1:1.0.3 Versions of packages claws-mail suggests: ii chromium [www-browser] 32.0.1700.123-1~deb7u1 ii claws-mail-doc 3.8.1-2 ii claws-mail-tools 3.8.1-2 ii elinks [www-browser] 0.12~pre5-9 ii gedit 3.4.2-1 ii iceweasel [www-browser] 24.3.0esr-1~deb7u1 ii lynx-cur [www-browser] 2.8.8dev.12-2 ii mousepad 0.2.16-6 ii w3m [www-browser] 0.5.3-8 -- no debconf information -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-bugs-dist-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
