Hi Uday, indeed, this is great progress, and the documentation is very clear about the need to specifying a full path. sorry for not noticing this!
things are nearly perfect now, but I think there may still be a problem. when I set the crash box address using the full path and read mail, the mail still is left in the crash box rather than being read into the main box and presented by vm. however, the good news is that when I press g in the vm buffer (that is, call vm-get-new-mail again), the crash box is now read and moved over. this is good enough for me to be able to use the development version, but perhaps there is still a minor bug there? cheers, -- IMAP dropping message to crash file, freezing emacs https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/285222 You received this bug notification because you are a member of VM development team, which is the registrant for vm. Status in View Mail (aka VM) for Emacs: Incomplete Status in VM (View Mail) for Emacs: Incomplete Bug description: affects viewmail importance critical Hi, I'm having some problems using emacs 23 from CVS, and VM 591 from the bzr repo. First, when collecting messages from my work's IMAP server, they invariably end up in my mail.crash file, then I have to `vm-get-new- mail' again to recover the messages. Note collecting from a another pop mailbox works fine. from my *Messages* buffer: Checking for new mail for /home/eschulte/mail/mitre... Recovering messages from ~/mail/mitre.crash... Added to /home/eschulte/mail/mitre Recovering messages from ~/mail/mitre.crash... done Second, VM continually freezes my emacs, at first I thought this was because it was collecting mail, so I set `vm-auto-get-new-mail' to nil, but still VM will burn my CPU and freeze my emacs for 5-20 seconds at a time. Does anyone have any advice for what may be going wrong, or how I can generate a more helpful error report?
