First, THANK YOU, I'm really excited about this project, and hope I can help out a bit here and there even if it's just testing. Concerning testing whether a conversation thread is being displayed appropriately, would it be safe to assume that the messages involved should be displaying in the same order as what they would be using the Gmail Webapp? Like if I have: User1 Sent Email User2 Replied User1 Sent Reply User1 Sent 2nd Reply Right now some of my replies aren't showing up in the conversation thread, whereas in Gmail all 4 appear in that order. Anyways, for the sake of QA, should they essentially mirror Gmail conversation order? I'm running against master, and am planning on fetch/merging regularly. Cheers to the Max! Steve Hi Steve, Great to hear Geary you're excited about Geary! So are we, but as you've seen there are many features we haven't implemented yet. Currently Geary does not show sent messages as part of an email thread. That's something we have planned for the future. It's ticketed here: http://redmine.yorba.org/issues/4293 The more detailed answer is that Gmail's web interface has a slightly different threading model than standard IMAP. When you send a message on Gmail, it places the message into the "Sent Mail" IMAP folder, but not the "Inbox" IMAP folder. Today, Geary only displays messages in the given folder you have selected, but won't pull messages from other folders. This is in contrast to Gmail's web interface, which shows every message in a thread regardless as to which folder it's in. I hope that explanation makes sense. Please do let us know of any issues you find as you continue testing Geary. Thanks! - Eric _______________________________________________ Geary mailing list [email protected] http://lists.yorba.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/geary
