Re: Problems with Modest and Gmail
 

In my view, a work-around is temporary. Long-term, I quite agree as we do not want to be dependent on Nokia in any way. But if you carry a n900 and need email access, you do what you have to meanwhile.

Re: Problems with Modest and Gmail
 

Thanks guys! ... Nokia Messenging is indeed still working which is something ... (And way preferable to having a gmail browser session constantly open! ... would prefer to get back to imap though if anyone works it out! x

Re: Problems with Modest and Gmail
 

Does anybody know how the offlineimap was implemented?

The usual way is to mirror the imap into a MAILDIR folder... or some magic was implemented to translate that to the modest format if there is such a thing?

And where does offlineimap store those mails?
I don't think it's a folder issue, but if it is, offlineimap allows to map server folders to different local folders.

Re: Problems with Modest and Gmail
 

Man, my timing to get back into the N900 is terrible! It only arrived a couple of days ago, and I was scratching my head as to why I couldn't get Gmail to work... at all.

A quick visit to TMO and it's all here - hope the smart guys can fix whatever is broken.

Also (off topic) I'm disappointed that I can't get any of the available Twitter apps to work. This N900 is quickly becoming unappealing, which is a shame as I was so excited.

EDIT: I just set up my Ovi Mail account as a test (I just use this for junk mail, nothing important) and it worked, and I can read/send emails just fine. Shame it's not my main email account! :P

Re: Problems with Modest and Gmail
 

Same problem. This is a total bummer.

If we know the bug-causing messages maybe it's time to contact the devs? Maybe the - chars in the id are causing any problem?

Re: Problems with Modest and Gmail
 

OK, I think I found what the problem is. It is the do-while loop here https://gitorious.org/community-ssu/...der.c#line5979

This is how the (start of the) response looks like:
https://gitorious.org/community-ssu/...der.c#line6005 breaks if there is enclosing (")") bracket in the message, which we have in "MODSEQ (382264)" just before the "BODY" part, so it exits the loop before parsing the message.

I think there are more places to fix that, will do (hopefully later today)

@fmg
If we would have possibility to thank a thousand times, I think your thanks count would be trillions :)

If you are that deep into sources, would you mind to have a look at why modest for some imap accounts cannot display all folders (one account only inbox, other account a few are missing like spam/trash, others work flawlessly). I believe it could be similar reason. Just a beg. Please do not feel pressed.
Main goal is to fix gmail (just as I feel it could be similar).

Again thanks (in advance).

Re: Problems with Modest and Gmail
 

@peterleinchen - without a test case I can't do much. My gmail account in modest looks just fine to me, so I have NFC where and what to look for not having the problem in the first place :)

Re: Problems with Modest and Gmail
 

In my own case, a work-around to Nokia Messaging is a problem half-solved, as I could nt find all my msgs in the inbox, only 97 out of 2000+
Is that how it works please?
