You can restart account-polld by entering “restart account-polld”. > Regarding the issues I found: Often, when there is an issue with polling the > mail server (which happens quite often, partially due to a bug in the go > language), account-polld will stop polling the server for this account until > the next reboot. If something goes wrong with an account it should stop polling for a few polls, but not forever, so if you are seeing that it would certainly be a bug. You can trigger polls manually over dbus: gdbus call --session -d com.ubuntu.AccountPolld -o /com/ubuntu/AccountPolld -m com.ubuntu.AccountPolld.Poll What “bug in the go language”? > I'm using this launchpad branch to push my changes to my Nexus 4 for building > the packages I test: > https://code.launchpad.net/~nikwen/account-polld/bug-fixes taking a look... > Whilst the current version works around a major bug I encountered, it's > definitely not ready yet. from a quick glance at the branch, I'm assuming what you're calling the major bug is it not resetting the failure count on an account if the account is updated?
