I've had this since before installation of the CSSU, reckon it might simply be a MicroB bug or alternatively some app screwing with the UI.

So far I have found only one bug; I normally use my phone book by just start typing persons name on desktop.

That doesn't work with CSSU, everytime I wanna search someone from phone book, I need first open phone book application.

Even my OC's were there after update...

BIG thanks for update!

That's fixed with the gconf command (search the thread for details).

sorry for not knowing what those multipart/alternative/mixed means..

basically what I mean is that, when i try to send the attachments/pictures via n900, it doesn't get sent like how I receive mail sent from my laptop. I sent an email to myself via laptop and checked from the phone and it was fine...

more importantly, how then do we make it back to normal? thanks

An email message has a MIME type which indicates what the content is - for a simple email this is usally text/plain. A lot of clients nowadays use HTML instead though, in which case the MIME type would be text/html. However, to support older clients they can also send a plain text version alongside the HTML version. Now the overall message is tagged as multipart/alternative - multipart because there's more than one section in the message (each of which will have its own MIME type) and alternative because the sections should be just alternative versions (so the client can just pick the best one to show). The sections will then in turn be tagged as text/html and text/plain respectively.

If you're using attachments, the MIME type for the overall message should instead be multipart/mixed - there's multiple parts again, but they're not just alternative versions of the same message.

The version of modest in the CSSU gets this wrong, so although the message still actually contains the attachments, many clients will fail to show them (as they think they're just different forms of the same message).

Yeah - that's how it shows up. If you use a different client then you may see the attachments - modest will show them fine for example. That's why some people just aren't seeing this problem - their client shows all the parts, irrespective of whether they're just alternatives.

It needs a new modest release including a patch for this, or a rollback to the standard PR1.3 version.

One question, is there any middleware upgrade in this CSSU?

If not, it would be great for next releases if some stuff like Pulseaudio, dbus or bluez could be updated without breaking applications.

Very odd. It never happened to me before CSSU. I think I found a pattern. It happens mostly the first time. Just like only the first link from desktop lets the bookmarks window behind. All subsequent links work fine.

Can I reliably reproduce this bug? I like it :)
