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.

Yup, great, and thanks for the link to the ticket.


Please do let us know of any issues you find as you continue testing Geary. Thanks!

I will! One more question I do have, is how likely master geary from git would be to cause any damage to my IMAP mail on the server. I'd like to try hooking it up to my actual emails accounts with lots of messages (one is gmail based which I know is better supported, the other is exchange based)

I'm Ok with the idea of things getting mucked up on the local geary sqlite database, but would rather not break things on the server if geary's IMAP calls are still considered unstable enough to mess things up. I mean, I understand there is always a chance of that happening, and am Ok with that, I'm just wondering how likely that would be with geary's current master branch.

Thanks!
Steve
