This is implemented in Claws Mail CVS, the next release of Claws Mail is coming soon.

Re: GMAIL on the N810

so maybe its time for a claws vs modest review from someone?? :)

Re: GMAIL on the N810

With their diametric naming a face-off would be in order.

"claws" vs. "modest"

Do you perceive Claws to be an immodest name? :)

Excellent! It would be really nice if it just keyed off folders you choose. If it's just "you have some new mail since we last checked the server" mine will always be lit. :D

Really I think Claws and Modest are very different at this point.

To me Modest just feels like a more efficient version of the default mail app with imap folder support and a few (forced) finger friendly changes. It's certainly not as configurable or powerful as Claws. Heck you can't even change basic font sizing for message lists, message viewing, etc. I'm sure the simplicity will appeal to some people though.

Re: GMAIL on the N810

All these settings do not work for me.
It says: Authentication failed ... check settings.

Dang.

Re: GMAIL on the N810

OK, back again.
Not as happy as I thought I was with Modest.
Can someone please give me a link for Claws?
Thank you.
