God... jeez... exactly, I was trying to run it as root) so stupid of me)

I have just executed as user, and it worked. Thanks!

Does this client support IMAP IDLE (push)?

no, but the underlying imap client supports it, so it shouldnt be too much trouble for me to implement. ill see if i can add it to the next release (2.1).

speaking of which, i need to actually package up the deb for 2.0, which has been waiting almost a year.

v2.0 released

a full year with qtemail my only email client on desktop+phone

Changelog:

• Modularization, huge refactor, performance improvements
• Large toolbar improvments (added submenu, style, same for all platforms)
• Add --delete and --move support to email.pl
• New file selector UI using qmlcompletionbox (for attachments)
• Add support for CC and BCC in email.pl and GUI
• Add count_include config to optionally ignore folders for unread counts
• Fix bug: changing folder did not navigate back to header list
• Fix bug: mark-all-read updated UI even if you changed folders
• Fix bug: email addresses containing dots failed to parse in send GUI
• Improve cmdline args (e.g.: `email-gui.py --account=WORK --page=send`)
• Improve config: add descriptions+usage, support multi-line, set-password
• Workaround for font point size warnings caused by QT4 bug

wolke, do you know about qt-components-hildon? This would give your app native N900 look and feel on Maemo.
Maybe it'd be a good idea to push it to extras-devel?

thanks, i did not know about it!
i played around with it, and it looks really solid, but unfortunately, it would not be trivial to convert my existing QML (most of my components are written from scratch in order to have essentially zero dependencies, so i can have a single unified N9+N900+desktop UI).
maybe if i get a neo900, and it one day runs freEmantle, ill invest some time into making it look nice just for hildon. for now, it looks at least as good as the N9 version. (which, like the desktop version, is somewhere between barebones and hideous, depending on your taste).


good idea! i requested upload perms on garage

Excellent !

I am adding qtemail to
https://wiki.maemo.org/Apps

Are u still developing it and for which platforms ?

cool, thanks.

yea, i am developing it more or less actively for the N9 and desktop linux, and i test it occasionally on the N900 to make sure it still works.

however, i gave up trying to package it for extras-devel. the automated builder rejected it for something or other, and it was too much work to figure out why. sorry!

p.s.: if someone else wants to make a build process that produces an arch-all deb for n9/desktop + maemo src for extras-devel, id be glad to run it when i do releases. just send me a PR on github.

@wolke
Please don't leave at first error, our autobuilder will give you more fantastic and unpredictable messages!

Your package seems to require cmake:

https://garage.maemo.org/pipermail/e...ly/156357.html
https://garage.maemo.org/builder/fre...log.FAILED.txt

yea it does, though it doesnt REALLY.
i should probably just remove cmake as a dep.

anyway, its much too much fuss for me to do at the moment; next time i work on qtemail it will be to add IMAP IDLE, not play with build systems.
(that being said, if anyone feels like throwing a PR my way...)
