OK. I replaced /usr/bin/modest.launch with the one from the .deb and can report that it works OK.

There are two new options (tree view and offline imap?), but I can't see them well because I didn't install the localization (I only replace that one single binary..)

Activating the "treeview" made the new modest crash, until I removed the option from gconf. Now it's OK. I will test it for a few days, and if OK, then I will update the whole package.

Any pointer about the offline IMAP and how it is supposed to work?
Cheers.
