Package: offlineimap Version: 6.0.0 Severity: wishlist I wanted to write a patch for this instead but ran out of time, so for posterity:
I have autorefresh=15 and sometimes I can get online for 5-10 minutes at an airport. In those cases, I always have to run offlineimap manually, or even kill the process to make sure the sync is complete. I was thinking that autorefresh could be extended to cope better with mobile/offline clients, if it distinguished between successful and failed completion of a sync run and then slept accordingly. If the sync was successful, it could sleep those 15 minutes, but if the sync failed due to a network error, maybe it can retry in, say 30 seconds? Obviously, quick synchronisations would only happen every n successful times. -- System Information: Debian Release: lenny/sid APT prefers unstable APT policy: (500, 'unstable'), (500, 'testing'), (1, 'experimental') Architecture: amd64 (x86_64) Kernel: Linux 2.6.25-2-amd64 (SMP w/1 CPU core) Locale: LANG=en_GB, LC_CTYPE=en_GB.UTF-8 (charmap=UTF-8) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/dash Versions of packages offlineimap depends on: ii python 2.5.2-1 An interactive high-level object-o ii python-support 0.8.4 automated rebuilding support for P offlineimap recommends no packages. -- no debconf information -- .''`. martin f. krafft <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> : :' : proud Debian developer, author, administrator, and user `. `'` http://people.debian.org/~madduck - http://debiansystem.info `- Debian - when you have better things to do than fixing systems
