[VM] vm-mark-folder-modified-p

2012-11-11 Thread Julian Bradfield
Returning to the problem noted a while ago of VM marking a read-only
folder modified when it upgrades attribute data:
Is there *any* case in which vm-mark-folder-modified-p should work on
a read-only folder?

Good thinking, Julian.  This should be a good place to catch all the
read-only folder modifications that you don't want.  The old issue with the
attribute data has been fixed in the trunk:

  https://bugs.launchpad.net/vm/+bug/932602

I am sure there would be other cases where read-only folders are modified,
but I think none of them would be essential.  All the essenntial
modifications are disallowed as noted in the doc string of
vm-folder-read-only.  So, it should be fine to discard them.

Cheers,
Uday



[VM] gmail issue

2012-11-11 Thread Uday Reddy
When I send a message to the viewmail-info mailing list from this email
account (usr.vm.ro...@gmail.com) I don't get a copy of the message back to
the account.  I don't recall this happening a few months ago.

I wonder if anybody else is experiencing this problem?  

(I save outgoing messages in Sent which becomes [IMAP]/Sent on gmail.  I
wonder if gmail thinks that I already have a copy of the message in my
account and kills the new copy coming into my Inbox?)

Cheers,
Uday

PS. When I logged into the gmail webmail it served up 4 ads for me: 3 on
bug control companies in my region and one on some software built on top
of VMWare.

Google groups doesn't send you a copy of your message when you
post to a list.  We have been told they view this as a `feature'
which there is no control over.

Sounds like they added the same `feature' to gmail :-(
