Re: Modest Beta for OS2008 Now Out
 

Dumb...

I've been running 15 as well.

1) Cert errors

2) No background checking

3) Receiving lockups

Hey, at least I'm not getting itnernal errors.

And this is on a system just reflashed with os2008 51-3

Re: Modest Beta for OS2008 Now Out
 

So, this is the e-mail client that is coming on the new OS, and it isn't even working? I just installed 15 and its useless to me as my site requires a SSL connection. It won't even connect and download e-mail! I'm pretty surprised they would release a client that is this broken from the start. Are we missing something? Is there some secret bit of advice somewhere to get it running? I'd be very curious, and grateful to know.

That's why it's a BETA, so we get a free preview and they get testers to help them make it better. :rolleyes:

Besides, it seems to work fine for an awful lot of people (I'm among them)—just because it doesn't work for you doesn't mean it doesn't work period.

If you have a valid bug, then go to http://bugs.maemo.org and file one. Be sure to include as much information as possible and the steps required to reproduce the issue.

It's a BETA, the point of a beta (despite what google seems to believe) is to work out all the bugs so they don't make it into the final release.

You're gonna need to provide some real information if you want help troubleshooting. :)

I spoke too soon; I'm getting occasional int. errors & e-mails are not always marked 'read'... maybe w16 of the BETA in the non-Google sense....

Re: Modest Beta for OS2008 Now Out
 

Hello,

I'm also having internal error with this new version as also on previous releases.

-J-

Re: Modest Beta for OS2008 Now Out
 

I've never seen the internal error, and w15 runs happily in the background, but it's still hanging occasionally on receiving, and has to be forcibly "kill -9" before it works again.

Also, and I'm not sure if this is me or not, but when pulling email from my IMAP server it seems to be saying everything is unread if it's new for the device, even if I've read it elsewhere.

Apart from these few niggles, I'm very happy with modest. A HUGE improvement over the built in client. Having looked at creating simple IMAP clients in the past, I know what a b*tch the spec is, so kudos to anyone who can implement a working client.

Re: Modest Beta for OS2008 Now Out
 

I've only had the internal error happen once a long while back, but haven't since then. Just the other day it notified me of new mail and downloaded the messages no problem. I have the latest version (w15) running on 50-2 (the one prior to the latest OS version).

Re: Modest Beta for OS2008 Now Out
 

I'm getting "Error while retrieving email" when trying to open an email from the notification.

Re: Modest Beta for OS2008 Now Out
 

Ok, now It's not checking for new mail even when it's in the foreground ( even the topmost app). Clicking on rescan usually finds the new mail assuming it doesn't sit them saying receiving until I killall modest.

Re: Modest Beta for OS2008 Now Out
 

Oh and also with 15, messages are no longer marked as read on the server.

I'm going to try a complete uninstall, reboot, and see if a reinstall will fix it
