HI, YES,

Re: How bad is the mail client...
 

well there is a known bug where the set refresh intervals are lost..

is the problem

a) that sometimes it refreshes and sometimes it doesnt by itself
or
b) that even if the automatic refreshing works that not all mails are forwarded

Re: How bad is the mail client...
 

why is there no option to copy text en paste!
can someone explain please.

Re: How bad is the mail client...
 

Yes there is. Except that it´s 100% Nokia way (works 50-50 as it should). Press shift and try to mark text what you want to copy (ctrl-c)

Re: How bad is the mail client...
 

This sounds great, but also too far from Maemo platform I'd say. More than a port, that would be a complete rewrite, don't you think ? Any attempts ?

In the meantime, I've been able to package mutt, offlineimap and msmtp as deb. I can retreive emails from my gmail account and send emails through this same account. offlineimap syncs between remote IMAP (imap.gmail.com) and a local maildir, both ways. mutt is used to access this local maildir. msmtp is used to send emails from mutt (couldn't make it work with mutt SMTP config).

Anyway this was quite complicated but at least I seem to have a beginning of reliable email program :) If only Modest Email client could access a maildir instead of mutt, there wouldn't be any sync problem anymore, as offlineimap can handle this and reliably.

FWIW
Cheers,
Seb

@schlumpfie- thats the known bug where refresh intervalls are lost..! its been reported already

Re: How bad is the mail client...
 

Hi,

sorry if I'm in the wrong threat. I'm not sure if I'm right but I found no more appropriate threat.

Since PR1.2 I don't recive any email. It doesn't seem to have anything to do with the refreshing intervals or the internetconnection. Because manually refreshing also fails.

I also deleted my Email account and set up a new one, but nothing changed.

My settings are
imap (gmx - german provider)
internet connection is allway online
refreshing automatically, with any connection.

Is it possible that it is a problem concerning my email provider like in this bug:
https://bugs.maemo.org/show_bug.cgi?id=3387

I'm really clueless and appreciate any help!

Re: How bad is the mail client...
 

btw, is the mail client extensible? what about the calender?

i regularly sync with an exchange server at work and the integration is ATROCIOUS to say the least!!!

if these clients are extensible, it may be possible to write plugins to fix some of the shortcomings because writing a complete email client isn't a trivial task.
