I opened a DOS window, ran claws with --debug, recreated the problem and there were no additional messages printed. I took a look at claws.log and there's nothing obvious there either. Another observation, perhaps a clue, perhaps just plain strange... If I mark the messages for delete, hit execute, then 'view >> update summary', all of the delete marks are gone. None of the above observations happen with the same accounts if I use sylpheed instead of claws, which leads me to believe that it's a claws problem rather than an issue with the gmail imap server.

Hi Marcel, Your patch works well if we start and stick with '>', but it doesn't work quite so well for all those users who are using with '> '. In the case of '> ', which will be almost everyone, it adds an extra space to each quoted line, '> ', unless the quoted line is wrapped, and then the wrapped part gets just one space, '> '. So, in my opinion, it needs a little more work on dealing better with the space(s) between quote marker and quoted text. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are the assignee for the bug.

I have been using SolydX for several months now, and run Claws-Mail and Firefox without any trouble. It is a trimmed-down derivative of Debian with the XFCE light-weight window manager, 32 and 64 bits versions available, needs relatively little memory and HD space, boots and stops very quickly (compared to the KDE Mageia I ran before) and I am very pleased with it.http://solydxk.com/ http://solydxk.com/ Cheers, Ron.

It runs great both places. In both places it's run great using both the Xfce and Openbox. I might have run it under the (ultra-stable) LXDE too, I just don't remember. If I wanted my software to work (which I do), I'd stay well away from all things KDE, and although I'd be fine with Gnome apps and Gnome libraries, I wouldn't use Gnome as a Window manager/Desktop environment. It probably goes without saying, but I wouldn't touch Unity with a ten foot pole. Bottom line, you'd be much more likely to succeed with software if you run a light footprint window manager.

What do you suggest? Here we do start getting into stuff that's offtopic on this list.

The most trouble I anticipate you getting from Claws is the dreaded "buried dialog box looks like Claws is hung" problem. Claws seldom hangs for real, but because it neither multithreads nor spawns new processes to do things, occasionally a dialog box requiring your input gets buried behind some other Claws or nonClaws windows, and it *looks like* claws got hung. Just keep a cool head, use lots of Alt+Tab to look at every window on the screen, and find where it's looking for input. As far as distros, my bet is that Claws would perform about as well on any distro as other things tend to perform on it, and that you'd get very few Claws problems resulting from the distro you chose.

So if you just want something that works with little or no fiddling go for Linux Mint 13 (based on Ubuntu 12.04 which means long time support) with Mate desktop.

So, does this mean that such bugs are also present on Ubuntu, which is based on Debian? Should I avoid all Debian/Ubuntu-based distros? As nobody else actually adressed this, I will have to frankly say that there is a lot of bugs in Debian is a really odd one! Then again, it would depend on which specific Debian flavour you are running. Here are the three Debian flavours you can run: Debian Stable: You can safelly say Debian stable has less bugs in it than about 99% (or more!) of the other distros in the planet. It is actually a sort of common knowledge that Debian Stable is THE most stable GNU/Linux distribution out there. It is also often considered outdated - that's because very thorough testing is required on the software included in Debian Testing, and that takes time... So you'll likely not have "the latest and greatest" in Stable. If I'm not mistaken, CentOS (an enterprise Linux distro) is based on this Debian release. Debian Testing: This is the release that will become the next Debian Stable. It takes two years for a Testing release to become the next Stable (hence the Stable/Testing cycle is six months longer than Ubuntu's LTS (Long Term Support) releases, the most stable Ubuntu releases). There is also a several months "freeze" (I don't remember how many) at the end of a Testing release where no software is added nor upgraded - it's only for bugfixing - the result will be a really stable, as bug-free as possible upcoming Stable release. Again, if not mistaken, this is the release Ubuntu and its derivatives is based on. Debian Unstable (aka Debian Sid): Now running this one is asking for trouble... Several people run this to have "the latest and greatest" not really understanding it's purpose is not at all to offer the latest and greatest, it's rather basically meant as a playground for developpers to sort of streess-test their applications against present and future possible conflicts and whatnot. Do note that Debian itself states (paraphrase from memory): "You should understand that Debian's objective is to produce Stable". Testing and Unstable are mere means to achieve that objective. So... what Debian release/flavour were the people who said Debian had many bugs talking about?... > Since my operating system should be able to run on a low-powered netbook, I was thinking of something like Lubuntu (which is also based on Ubuntu). > What do you suggest? Like others have said, it should work flawlessly on most if not all Linux distributions with a graphical environment (there are Linux distros with no graphical environments but I don't think you're considering those ones...). But you might care about how often the Claws-Mail package is updated in that distribution. Ubuntu LTS (dating back from 2012) uses Claws 0.8. But yuo can go to Claws Mail's site to get the repository to get updates for Ubuntu LTS directly from teh Claws Mail. The latest in is for LTS is 0.9.1. The old Debian Stable also used the 0.8 version of Claws. But I got the 0.9.2 from Debian Stable *Backports*. This one came from the then Testing release which is the current Stable, so... ;-) Cheers!

I guess this depends on what type of "bugs" you have heard of, if they're missing dependencies, conflicting libraries, etc. or bugs within Claws Mail's source code. For the latter, I fear that you will only have to wait for bugfixes in the next releases, using another distribution won't automagically fix those - however, one distribution or its repositories might keep their packages more up to date than another. I've been running Claws (formerly Sylpheed Claws) since I started using linux a decade ago, first on Slackware and then mostly on Debian (sid) and Debian based distrubtions (Xubuntu, Ubuntu, Crunchbang). I haven't noticed a single problem with what I use (several mailboxes, subfolders, filtering). I'd recommend Crunchbang linux as its default "destkop environment" is Openbox and might run well on netbooks (but you're of course free to use any other distro and install Openbox from there). -- Sébastien From h.m.brand at xs4all.nl Fri Oct 4 08:13:08 2013 From: h.m.brand at xs4all.nl (H.Merijn Brand) Date: Fri, 4 Oct 2013 08:13:08 +0200 Subject: [Users] On which Linux distro is Claws Mail best supported?

The KDE users will probably say to stay well away from Gnome or LXDE. The desktop seldom is a hindrance for the fine mail client claws mail. It will work as well on any window manager as long as the underlying OS supports the needs of CM. > > Bottom line, you'd be much more likely to succeed with software if you > > run a light footprint window manager. I do not agree: when you install a "heavy" window manager, like KDE or Gnome, it is likely that *all* dependencies needed for building Claws-Mail are already installed. tl;dr; That said, I just upgraded an OpenSUSE 11.4 (was evergreen) to 12.3, because the OS projects more and more require recent(ish) versions of libraries that make up their GUI. With what 11.4 had available, hexchat and Claws (my main communication tools for IRC and mail) would not build anymore. If you choose a "stable" version of an OS, there is a chance that the recent versions of depending libraries will not be available for the new build of any tool in the future, and you want the new version of that tool because it fixed one of your most annoying bugs. I upped to OpenSUSE 12.3 with the intent to upgrade to OpenSUSE 13.1 in November, as that version is the next evergreen (with longer support). My development box will keep upgrading to newer releases, and history has proven that the libraries from the newer releases /sometimes/ are enough to make new issues solved. When you install those in a separated environment, it is possible to run most recent tools on older OS. I have been forced to use Ubuntu in the past month. I have no idea how well the desktop works, because I had to deal with the system over ssh to install system software. In times like those, you *really* learn to appreciate OpenSUSE's "zypper" tool. All instruction on the internet for adding printers, installing dependencies and other system-related stuff start with something like "Click here". Extremely useless info if you do not have the desktop available. With SUSE's zypper (a tool that includes all functionality of rpm, apt-get, dpkg, ipkg) and yast2 (GUI, fine to use with X11 forwarding) those problems do not exist. -- H.Merijn Brand http://tux.nl Perl Monger http://amsterdam.pm.org/ using perl5.00307 .. 5.19 porting perl5 on HP-UX, AIX, and openSUSE http://mirrors.develooper.com/hpux/ http://www.test-smoke.org/ http://qa.perl.org http://www.goldmark.org/jeff/stupid-disclaimers/ From subscriber at blackbrook.org Fri Oct 4 08:15:13 2013 From: subscriber at blackbrook.org (Eric Schwarzenbach) Date: Fri, 04 Oct 2013 02:15:13 -0400 Subject: [Users] On which Linux distro is Claws Mail best supported?

Are you speaking about non-LTS versions? According to https://wiki.ubuntu.com/LTS "Instead of doing an automatic full package import from Debian unstable, we will do it from Debian *testing^1 *." The footnote says "*1.* We reserve the right to /selectively/ pull in updates from unstable, if we believe the stability of the package in Debian is better than what is in the current Ubuntu archive." I've had 0 problems with 12.04 LTS, having used for about a year for several servers, doing frequent apt-get updates. But this has been server use, not desktop (and I haven't used Claws on it). -------------- next part -------------- An HTML attachment was scrubbed...

I only run CM from git checkouts (or nightly tgz's in the times it still was cvs). When you install from packages, there should be no dependency problems at all (if the packager knows their job). The advantage of building from source is twofold • You get the most recent version with all known issues fixed (as much as the developers are able and willing to fix: some feature requests are quite weird or illogical, and the developers have all right to choose what is a bug and what is not. Besides that, it is still voluntary time, and you do not pay them to get this awesome mail client) • You have access to the source: if you find a bug, just fix it and make the fix available to the team hoping they agree with the fix and the fix will be committed for the next cycle: all users benefit :) The only disadvantage is that you need to have development tools installed and all related development packages installed. That should not be a problem for developers, but if the only thing one does on a box is using a mail client and browsing the web, having all that installed might be a bit over the edge. -- H.Merijn Brand http://tux.nl Perl Monger http://amsterdam.pm.org/ using perl5.00307 .. 5.19 porting perl5 on HP-UX, AIX, and openSUSE http://mirrors.develooper.com/hpux/ http://www.test-smoke.org/ http://qa.perl.org http://www.goldmark.org/jeff/stupid-disclaimers/ From p.nikolic1 at btinternet.com Fri Oct 4 08:53:17 2013 From: p.nikolic1 at btinternet.com (P NIKOLIC) Date: Fri, 4 Oct 2013 07:53:17 +0100 Subject: [Users] On which Linux distro is Claws Mail best supported?

The main choice is whether you want stable or secure packages or not which are often seen as the same thing but that is far too simplistic a view. Quite often this means stable are less secure but a debian stable may be more secure than a ubuntu package which isn't quite upto date aside from things like firefox where they focus resources. The latest packages may get security fixes much quicker but may also have unknown security bugs and possibly gnutls problems that will be fixed quickly before they hit debian or Ubuntu repos. Not Linux but if you are willing to learn how to keep upto date with current via snapshots (dead quick once you know how) or building then it's hard to argue against OpenBSD which uses the latest code judged stable often by savvy developers/porters. Far more secure kernel even if you patch Linux with grsecurity and though they could occasionally do with a little more developer resources their judgement on packages and code is far better than Arch which bundled udisks2 earlier than they should have done and so losing features that were in udisks (as confirmed by the udisks dev). It's not linux though so if you want automounting you would have to setup hotplugd. If you want Linux I would consider Xubuntu (and remove zeitgeist and some other crud) as it may well be possible to have claws on your phone (ubuntu mobile) next year too. p.s. I hope your GUI programs for updating aren't running as root, that's Windows level of dangerous, but if your happy with that risk then cool. Many GUIs like synaptic don't drop priviledges and the polkit model is in some cases a con and in others completely flawed. Truecrypt and ssh itself are decent examples of doing it right where ssh runs as little as possible as root and drops priviledges specifically and automatically within it's code and truecrypt has a core-service which will use sudo automatically (if enabled in sudoers). Unfortunately you can't do much about the last part without using the commandline except hope gui devs become more caring and competent. -- _______________________________________________________________________ 'Write programs that do one thing and do it well.

I have used programs in MS Windows where I could create a macro by simply clicking on items and/or entering information. That ability is awesome; however, I certainly understand why the claws-mail developers probably do not want to entertain creating that functionality in their product. It would probably require a great deal of work. I do not know enough about Python to realistically follow that path; at least not at present.

One of the cool things about Claws-Mail is that it has two completely different email deletion paradigms: Trash and expunge deletions immediately Simply mark them for later deletion The trash and expunge is pretty much what most email programs do -- move the message from its current folder to the trash folder. When I first saw the mark for later deletion interface, it made me crazy and I asked on the list how to change it to "normal". But in the ensuing weeks and months, I came to prefer mark for later deletion -- much easier to recover accidental deletions. You can hide the marked messages in a folder by highlighting the folder, and then View->Hide_deleted_messages. And, at any given time, you can always permantently delete the marked emails with Tools->Expunge. To set your preferred Click Configure->Preferences_for_current_account to get the Account Preferences window for the current account, then in the Page Index list on the left, click Advanced. Now look carefully at the screen for a checkbox called "Move deleted email to trash and expunge immediately". If you check that box, deleted emails are moved to the Trash folder right away. If you don't check that box, deleting a message simply marks it and turns it light gray. While you're on this page of this window, notice the input field labeled "Put deleted messages in", with a checkbox. If you check it and select a folder, that folder becomes your trash folder. Usual choices for trash folder are either account/trash or account/INBOX/Trash. To summarize, your deletion config is all contained on the advanced page of the current account's Account Preferences page, which is reached by clicking Configuration->Preferences_for_current_account, and then selecting "Advanced" from the page list on the left of the Account Preferences window. To choose Trash and Espunge immediately, check the "move deleted mails to trash and expunge immediately" checkbox. To choose Mark for later deletion, uncheck the "move deleted mails to trash and expunge immediately" checkbox. Either way, to define the Trash folder, check the "Put deleted messages in" checkbox, and put in the desired folder in the "Put deleted messages in" input field. The input field has a browse button on its right to help you choose.

No need to apologize for correcting me. I however do apologize for my misleaded claim (I honestly don't remember where I got that idea from). Anyway, stating that CentOS was an enterprise Linux distro was meant to say an equivalente to "very stable", which actually, isn't necessantly so, is it?

Anyway, we're not judging you nor the choices you make for the operating system(s) you run, we're advising someone else in terms of what to expect from Linux distros out there, in terms of stability, mainly for running Claws Mail. Or at least so I think. Warning people about that a particular distributions or one of its releases are not designed for everyday "production" use seems reasonable to me - that doesn't mean I'm judging those who opt otherwise for themselves. > > Debian stable is rock-solid and very stable and not likely to break or > cause you problems.

My desktop computer is the server for my LAN, and so it seldom gets rebooted. I usually take forced rebooting incidents, as the time to update software. And the last update resulted in my having to drop using kmail for email. I had been using kmail under LXDE for quite a while before this update. As others have observed, I seen no need for the semantic waste of resources that KDE has decided to become. Claws has a FAQ. Which means there must be a means of asking questions. And looking around the claws-mail website, I couldn't find a mail list. Which made me wonder about the FAQ. Google knows of the mailing list, which is how I have registered. But maybe you need to make it easier for people to find this? I have read the last 1.5 years of the users threads. I learned some things (thank you), and I seen a couple of threads I thought I would comment on. [Users] Claws mail to relational database? Fri Jul 5 19:10:03 CEST 2013 http://lists.claws-mail.org/pipermail/users/2013-July/006673.html There is a single person project called Manitou-mail (nominally out of France?) which looks to store email in PostgreSQL. The project is active, but slow (to be expected of a single person project I suppose). The definition of a mail-folder in a SQL environment is logical. Manitou seemed to be really only good at importing mbox, and so I wrote Perl script to turn a kmail maildir based store into a mbox, to import mail using Mail::Box related perl modules. The idea was that I would migrate to manitou, as it made more long term sense. But, the website hasn't changed much (not that I am looking for recognition). I can only assume the author is too busy to explore further development. I have no idea if the schema used to import mail into PostgreSQL is sufficient. I don't know if the manitou backend is a IMAP server. But, for people who want to store email in a SQL dbase, this might be something to look at. A significant part of Manitou is Perl. [Users] Action for fake html emails Wed Jun 5 20:59:46 CEST 2013 http://lists.claws-mail.org/pipermail/users/2013-June/006421.html The engineering association I belong to, feels obligated to send multipart MIME messages to members where the text part of every message is 1 or 2 bytes. Which only shows the messages are not compliant with the Multipart/MIME convention. I got tired of these improper emails at one point, and started working on a solution, never finished. But, I was using Mail::Box related perl modules in my solution, and a side effect of my sending in a patch is that there is support for sending proper multipart MIME in Mail::Box hierarchy. I was hoping to provide an interface through which they could send plain ASCII, HTML and PDF is still unfinished. And not likely to be finished any time soon. I'll close here. Two comments. Have a great day!

I have seen email threads in the archives which address kmail to claws transitions. I think editing ~/.claws-mail/matcherrc is easier than using the GUI to make rules. What I want to ask about, is filtering behavior. It seems to me that if I leave claws displaying the default inbox, I really need to change to some other mail folder, wait a while, and then change back to inbox in order for the filtering rules to work. Is this is what is intended? If so, could a person request a button to have this extra processing done without the manual changing of to another folder and back? Of interest, does any part of claws (or addons) use Text::Autoformat? Have a great day!

Under the menu item 'Community' you will find details about this mailing list. Maybe this doesn't slap you in the face like the words 'Mailing list' would, but seems logical enough, at least with a moment or two's thought. with regards Paul -- It isn't worth a nickel to two guys like you or me, but to a collector it is worth a fortune From claws at thewildbeast.co.uk Thu Oct 10 09:10:22 2013 From: claws at thewildbeast.co.uk (Paul) Date: Thu, 10 Oct 2013 08:10:22 +0100 Subject: [Users] "Filtering rules" In-Reply-To: <20131009185538.7365bc00@newmain.materia> References: <20131009185538.7365bc00@newmain.materia> Message-ID: <20131010081022.562cfd03@thewildbeast> On Wed, 9 Oct 2013 18:55:38 -0600 ghaverla wrote: > I think editing ~/.claws-mail/matcherrc is easier than using the > GUI to make rules.

Perhaps you're confusing Filtering with Processing? Both can be run automatically, the forme on fetching new mail, the latter on entering a folder. Both also can be run manually, from the /Tools/ menu, and/or from the folder context menu. with regards Paul -- It isn't worth a nickel to two guys like you or me, but to a collector it is worth a fortune From claws at thewildbeast.co.uk Thu Oct 10 09:19:06 2013 From: claws at thewildbeast.co.uk (Paul) Date: Thu, 10 Oct 2013 08:19:06 +0100 Subject: [Users] Strange smtp problem In-Reply-To: References: Message-ID: <20131010081906.265c75dc@thewildbeast> On Thu, 10 Oct 2013 08:11:18 +0200 (CEST) "Hanno Meyer-Thurow" wrote: > The problem with "claws-mail --debug" within Windows console is > that there simply is no stdout for UI based applications.

AFAIK, there's no RFC that says a name with a dot in it should be quoted for the SMTP server, and certainly most SMTP servers don't have a problem with that. with regards Paul -- It isn't worth a nickel to two guys like you or me, but to a collector it is worth a fortune From ricardo at mones.org Fri Oct 11 09:46:03 2013 From: ricardo at mones.org (Ricardo Mones) Date: Fri, 11 Oct 2013 09:46:03 +0200 Subject: [Users] Stripping of quotes in email addresses in the address book In-Reply-To: <20131010163934.261f7321@lwn.net> References: <20131010163934.261f7321@lwn.net> Message-ID: <20131011074603.GB22133@trasgu> Hi Jonathan, On Thu, Oct 10, 2013 at 04:39:34PM -0600, Jonathan Corbet wrote: > Hey, clawsfolk, it's been a while since I posted here. > > I wanted to draw your attention to a discussion on linux-kernel right > now.

It seems like all the base64 body messages have an X-Mailer value of "Yahoo Groups Message Poster". Other emails on the same list not having that X-Mailer come through just fine. As you mentioned, Thunderbird displays these messages just fine, but then again, it displays them in HTML format, which isn't what I want. So, in configuration->Actions, I made an action called yahoo_fix, with the following command: |base64 -b| Then, configuration->Preferences->Toolbars->Mainwindow I made a new user action toolbar button, which calls my yahoo_fix action. Now, on receiving a yahoo contaminated email, I highlight the body, click the yahoo_fix button, and bang, I can read it. I put the button on the message toolbar too so if I didn't want to keep doing this when I referred back to a message, I could just open it in a separate window. Be aware that you must highlight the body. If you do this action to the whole email, you'll get an error message saying "base 64, bad input".

You should rebuild software you have compiled when upgrading libs, to be sure the interfaces remain the same. If a library shifts number it's because there's some change, so your workaround is prone to fail sooner or later at runtime. regards, -- Ricardo Mones ~ Physics is like sex: sure, it may give some practical results, but that's not why we do it.

The fix is only available in GIT until a newer package is build. I do not know your skills in building claws-mail and especially claws-mail on Windows but if you are not able to do that you will have to wait until Colin releases a new Windows package. I have no knowledge of building claws-mail on Windows so I am not able to help you further.

Especially the GPG integration is great. There is just one thing I'm missing: I have to use both GPG and S/Mime in parallel.

I complained on a Yahoo list, and of course they blamed Claws. The problematic emails all have the following: Content-Type: multipart/alternative; boundary="whatever jibberish" Content-Type: text/plain; charset=utf-8 Content-Transfer-Encoding: base64 The preceding two lines define the first part, the text part. Note that if I click the little button to read the HTML part, it's readable. Here's my question: * What do the RFCs say about the necessity of a mail client decoding a text/plain; charset=utf-8 that's encoded base64. I'd love to be able to tell them "sorry, the RFC's say that's a no-no, the bug is with Yahoo for base64ing the text part of the message". If the RFCs say an email client *should* convert the base64 in the plain text part of an email, be aware that this is going to happen more and more as more and more people are in Yahoo Groups. Yahoo has little incentive to change, because most other clients either convert, or show the HTML by default, or both.

I didn't look into RFCs, but I seemed to have remembered that Base-64 isn't unique. There are multiple versions of Base64. The standard Base64 encoding has + and / in it, and both of those means something special in URLs. I can easily imagine, that Yahoo is using some alternate version of Base64.

Thus there is a small overlap of the bottom right corner of the mime icon. This used to work, certainly in the 2.* series. Now the emblem is positioned with its top left corner 6 pixels to the right and 3 pixels below the top left corner of the mime icon. Hence it sites squarely over that icon and hides much of it. This has been happening since at least 3.8.2 and probably earlier. The bug is in stock_pixmap_widget_with_overlay in mimeview.c attempting to calculate the height and width of the two icons using gtk_widget_get_requisition, but getting the height and width of the emblem from the mime type requisition. So all the offset calculations cancel out just leaving the 3/6 border pixels. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are the assignee for the bug.

With the small encrypted padlock icon it is more obvious but that never appears for me (see bug 3016). Even so I don't think this is the desired effect. So I've also attached a screenshot with the Everaldo kids theme which uses larger mime type icons. Here the emblem is clearly not overlapping the bottom right corner, but offset slightly from the top left corner and therefore slap in the middle of the mime type icon. Lastly, I've attached a screenshot with the KDE4ish theme which uses a small padlock icon as the emblem for signed mime types. This appears almost exactly centered in the mime type icon instead of overlapping the bottom right corner.

The problem with yahoo's messages is this: They should use this: "Content-Transfer-Encoding: base64" But instead are using this: "Content-Transfer-Encoding: base64 " Note the extra space at the end. The html part displays fine because on that part there is no extra space. That is, on the html part they don't make the same mistake. According to the RFC, this extra space at the end is not allowed.

Can you keep a straight face when you say that?

For example, the algorithm (in do_pix_draw) for positioning "right" is the width of the base icon minus the width of the overlay icon plus twice the border. If you want to describe this as positioning towards the right, then it is positioning towards the right by the width of the sensitive area (base icon plus two borders) minus the width of the overlay icon. Any sensible person would call that positioning at the right side of the area, but call it what you will. To visualise easily, take an extreme case with a 100px base icon, a 1px overlay icon, and a 10px border. The origin (left side of the overlay icon) becomes 119px. The icon is crammed against the edge of the right border. Only when the two icons are approximately the same size does the algorithm reduce to overlaying towards the right by the border width. End result, the emblem is not positioned where this algorithm intends, apparently because the wrong height and width data is passed in. Try it with a tiny emblem and a huge base icon and it is immediately obvious that something is wrong. The emblem is positioned near the left when the algorithm intends it to be positioned near the right.

Well, I'm using : - encrypted HDD, - encrypted emails from time to time, and I'd rather not have Claws storing them un-encrypted.

After all, your hard drive is usually private, while it is a fact that at least the British and US secret services search and store basically all e-mails sent and I would be very surprised if the Chinese, Russian and several more don't. It is not only about searching. At some point you will always have to enter your password whenever you access an encrypted e-mail and that is just too inconvenient for most people. On the other hand encrypting anything does not help you at all if your computer is infected by a Trojan, or if a secret camera is watching your screen, or if the alternative to telling your password is a life in prison or torture. The question is, where does encryption help the most? For most people this is during transmission of the e-mail. I just hope to get some more people (including me) to do that more often. Saving unencrypted mails should not be the default, but it is a bit strange that there is an option to do this for sent mail, but not for received ones.

The emails you received are stored as-is, at the time they are received. Storing them unencrypted would require to ask you wether to do it for every encrypted mail, to let you change the default, because the password is needed. Plus, doing that is breaking the initial intent of the sender ;) My last $0.02 on that subject ;) Best, Paul -------------- next part -------------- A non-text attachment was scrubbed...

Either way it works for me. On the same preferences page, (other/miscellaneous), where you have the 'empty trash on exit' option checked, also set the 'Ask before emptying trash' option. Make sure you have at least 1 message in the trash folder and quit. Do you see the dialogue asking you to confirm emptying trash?

Changes anywhere else in the message body result in a bad signature message.

It should probably be something more explanatory as to why this strange symbol shows up. "Signed and encrypted" at a minimum, but preferably something more like "Signed, inline-encrypted" or "Signed, message text encrypted". Along the same lines, as currently defined, the tooltip (and icon legend) for signed and having attachments (if it is going to continue only be shown in the specific instance of an inline-encrypted message body and non-encrypted attachments, should indicate that fact. For example: "Encrypted, non-encrypted attachment(s)". Possibly even the simply encrypted tooltip that appears for mime-encrypted messages could then indicate that such a message might well include attachments and a signature. Further to that case, the emblem that is shown on the message body never indicates that it is encrypted (for example, if the decryption fails or is cancelled) because it always receives a pgp_signed emblem of some sort. Not easy to change though, it would probably require two emblems. That would give the option to have en emblem for decrypted attachments though, which might be nice. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are the assignee for the bug.

It seems to default to some crazy international font that shows latin characters (English) look all wonky. Or maybe it's only for specific instances like when it encounters "charset=windows-1252"? Perhaps even fix the memory leak that crashes Fancy after a few hours and takes CM along with it?

"First new email" is the first selection for "Set default selection". "Open message when selected" is set to "Always". Also, "Mark message as read" is set to "on selected", after 2 seconds. With this combination, I expect that a newly received mail message will be selected, and shortly afterwards marked read, when it arrives with the Claws main window open (although that doesn't happen if the relevant inbox is already selected), which is fine. I expect it not to happen when the main window is closed, or at least not to happen until I open the window. Which is also fine. The tricky case is when the main window is closed and the receive dialog visible, then the message still gets marked read even though I have no hope of ever having seen it. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are the assignee for the bug.

Thanks, it has been soved with Sébastien's suggestion to Set browser.tabs.loadDivertedInBackground to true in about:config Dont use KDE, came to Cl Hello, I haven't yet determined if this is a Claws issue, or, being imposed by my WM (Openbox, Crunchbang Waldorf OS). I also run a dual-head setup, and typically run claws on the right display in my setup, I doubt that is adding to the issue, but I'm noting it for debugging. When composing an e-mail and clicking send *with* the send dialogue enabled, if I switch desktops from that which has claws on it, the e-mail send dialogue and send process will hang, until I return to the desktop containing Claws. This will result in all Claws functionality blocking until the e-mail is sent, meaning all filters/fetching/processing are not being run. Disabling the send dialogue seems to not cause this issue. Is this the expected behavior, or is this a known issue? Thanks! -------------- next part -------------- An HTML attachment was scrubbed...

Apart from not being easily discoverable, this is confusing and clunky in a GUI (although I love it on the command line!). Ideally the popup would appear automatically (optionally?) when characters (a certain number, or after a certain delay?) are typed. It would also be helpful for the first found address to be filled in without having to select from the dropdown list. Non-typed portions of the address would be already selected so that they don't interfere with further typing.

The signature verifies not only that the message was produced by the owner of the key but that the contents of the message are identical to when it was signed. A blank line is mandatory after the armor and before the text of the message. However, if this line is modified to contain text, Claws still reports the signature as valid. GnuPG command line signature checking returns a fail code (not a bad signature code) when this happens and a message that the armor header is invalid.

As an example, (almost) everyone knows that tab will move from one field to another when filling in data in an online form, and it does this in Claws too. Try typing an email address (complete and correct) in the Claws compose window, then hit tab to move on. It doesn't move on. Instead something else happens, something unhelpful. In the case where the dropdown contains only one entry exactly matching the typed email address, it is particularly unhelpful ;) -- You are receiving this mail because: You are the assignee for the bug.

For reasons that must have had something to do with fat fingers, Claws Mail opens in Openbox full screen and without decoration. I've tried the alt-space-D Openbox sequence, which brings up the window-related commands, but the Un/Decorate selection, among others, is grayed out and unavailable. Interestingly, when I composed this message, I *could* use the asD sequence to toggle between decorate and undecorate for the message window. The same phenomenon occurs when I open C-M using Xfce or Lubuntu's native manager LXDE(?). So perhaps Claws-Mail is keeping the decoration information somewhere? Just for yuks, I replaced Openbox's rc file in my home/~/.config/openbox directory with the original in /etc/xdg/openbox, but that fails to solve the problem. And the winning solution is?? ;-) With best regards, Pete -- Peter N.

I haven't actually found the definitive sollution to this (I think there is none as Google Mail and IMAP folders are not direct matches, namelly regarding Gmail Labels being  "translated" to IMAP folders). Still, if there seemingly is no way to avoid downloading several e-mail messages from Gmail to an IMAP account in Claws, I did however find an easy way to get rid of the multiple copies stored in my harddisk. With limitations. The sollution is: Hardlinks. I did some testing with the following two setups: - DEFT 8 Linux 64bit (my two other distros crashed, or more preciselly, I crashed them... I'm keeping my wild guesses off this DEFT 8 setup... Not to the point really.). -- With Linux kernel 3.5 (mentioned for the sake of filesystems handling quirks I might not be aware of); -- With Python 2.7.3 (you'll understand why I mention it later in this message). - Windows XP Pro SP3 32bit -- With Python 2.7.5 (latest stable on the 2.x series), both with and without pywin32 by Mark Hammond; -- With Python 3.3.2 (latest stable), both with and without pywin32. The limited testing I did shows: - I can create perfectly working hardlinks from DEFT8 in both ext4 and NTFS partitions using the standard 'ln' command. The inode numbers revealed by 'ls -i' will match. - Those unix-like hardlinks will work seemingly flawlessly when dealing with them in Windows XP. They will indeed display the count of hardlinks shown by the FlexHex program mentioned and downloadable from the article on http://www.flexhex.com/docs/articles/hard-links.phtml#hardlinks (2nd paragraph). - Hardlinks created in the NTFS, when removed, either in Linux or Windows, will both remove only that one link, leaving the other links and their contents untouched. - Running 'chkdsk' on Windows shows no filesystem corruption. I also found a very nice utility: hardlink.py ( http://code.google.com/p/hardlinkpy/ ), which searches a directory for copies of the same file and turns them into hardlinks Perfect for my purpose! Although... It does work fine when run from Linux, with the same results mentioned above on either ext4 or NTFS alike. But when run from Windows XP, it fails to detect the copies and instead states them as having been already linked before (not true). This happens with all four combinations of Python and the pywin32 I detailed above for my Windows XP. The "NTFS Hard Links, Directory Junctions, and Windows Shortcuts" article mentioned above (the one from where you can also get the FlexHex utility) lets you download another utility that creates hardlinks in Windows XP and onwards (although Windows 7 includes 'mklink', which does the same). These work just as well as the Linux 'ln' command. Thus, the problem with hardlink.py not doing its job properly when run on Windows might be fixable/worked-around. If the problem of hardlink.py not working from Windows XP could be solved, then I could have a go at trying to implement a Claws-Mail Python action (with hardlink.py included in the code or called by it) that I could run from either the Linux or Windows versions of Claws-Mail to keep my locally stored Gmail account free of multiple copies of the same contents at any time. Also... I know basically nothing of Python and I am not a programmer, but with time... If anyone has any insights into this or any alternatives they might suggest, they'll be most welcome.

I went through a heck of an evaluation of lots of mail clients after I ran away from Kmail when they contaminated it with nepomuk and akonadi, asking some of the same questions you just did. And most of the answers I found were unsatisfactory. What I finally ended up doing was putting Dovecot, an IMAP server, on my desktop computer. All my emails are on my IMAP server, and Claws just acts as a device to look at them. I pinholed my firewall to the Internet so I can access that IMAP server via ssh, when I'm travelling, so I no longer have to sync laptops to my desktop. This isn't perfect: It leaves my entire home network as a single point of failure for email while I'm on the road, and I'll need to do something about that later on, but so far it's been the best solution to email that I've ever found. Oh, and one huge advantage: Never again will a mail client hold hostage my email folders. I can, and often do, access my email with Thunderbird, usually as a troubleshooting diagnostic test. But if Claws ever became horrible, it would be trivial to swap in a different (IMAP aware) email client. Of course, we all fervently hope that Claws will never suffer the quality implosion that Kmail did, but it's good to know that if that happens, you have an easy way out. A few details: * Fetchmail grabs email from my various email accounts every five minutes, and passes them to Procmail. * Procmail drops the emails into the proper Dovecot maildir folders, according to my .procmailrc * Claws sees my Dovecot server as an "account".

And you can place several copies of the same one file into several different folders. And I would go as far as guessing the Labels on your Gmail messages are stored in Google's servers as different *links* to the same one message. However, in Claws Mail, as indeed I presume similarly in most if not all e-mail clients, if you subscribe to say folder 'INBOX' and 'Bills' at the same time, you will download the same one message that you got in your box and that got labelled "Bills" twice. And it will indeed occupy, in your disk, twice as much space as one single message-file. And of course, if you apply several labels to one Gmail message, you will have that many more copies. That is the problem.

CM is too slow to be usable! Message-ID: <20131030175212.3e29a8fc@fermat.unipv.it> I regret to admit that, after testing CM on slow IMAP connections, I had to switch to Thunderbird as default mail client for my laptop. Let me explain why, hoping that someone will convince me to come back to CM. I am managing a very large amount of mail (10Gb+) organized in a lot of folders and subfolders and archived in an IMAP server. After I hit "Get Mail", and if I have a good network connection, everything is fine and all my folders are updated with new messages almost instantaneously. On the other hand, if the network is not so fast, checking for new messages can take *very long* time. Of course, there is nothing CM can do in order to speedup the process if the network is slow. But the negative side is that when CM is checking for new mail, it cannot be used for anything else (not even for sending mails). Looking at old threads in this list, I have the feeling that this not avoidable. Please, correct me if I am wrong: I would be happy to know that I am missing something and, if this is the case, to come back to a usable CM.

It is not avoidable as such within CM, but exactly for this reason I run a local Dovecot IMAP server, which i sync up with the 'real' server with offlineimap. So, my incoming mail chain looks like this: CM <-- Local Dovecote IMAP <-- offline-imap <-- Remote IMAP server Claws connects to the local IMAP server only and is thus always fast. Obvious disadvantage is added complexity, but once setup, it works fine. hth, marcel -------------- next part -------------- A non-text attachment was scrubbed...

I will give offlineimap another try. I actually installed it at the beginning, but for some reason I decided not to use it. Is there any possibility of conflicts if I connect with different clients at the same time? I suspect that copying and syncing the IMAP repository between the two server can be source of trouble... It is not like having a local copy produced by the mail client. In this respect Thunderbird seems more reliable but I have no experience of CM and offlineimap.

I think this problem is inherent in the single-threadedness of Claws, but others are more able to address the technical aspects of this. I'm almost always on a fast (enough) network connection that it doesn't bother me, and the advantages of Claws outweighs the occasional delay. The worst part for me is checking the NNTP groups (i.e. Gmane). On a fast network, there is still a delay, but it's not so bad. On slow networks it's unbearable. I have to disable checking of Gmane. Short of getting some amount of multithreaded behavior into Claws (an admittedly large and disruptive task no doubt), I wonder if it would be possible to define some kind of preferences which allowed me to say essentially: "When I'm on network X, check everything, but when I'm not, only check this imap server or that one." That would go a long way to allowing me to easily go traveling with Claws. Cheers, -Barry -------------- next part -------------- A non-text attachment was scrubbed...

You could try using folders to reduce the number in the INBOX or folders you click on most. I also put the imap cache folder on a ram disk for security reasons really and perhaps that speeds it up for me too?

It depends on your usage, but turning off 'scan for new mail' in all folders that you don't need to scan every time you check for new mail would help.

This downloads messages for INBOX only, and doesn't take much time. *Then* I click the Get Mail button, and while the stuff's downloading, I read the mail in INBOX. You're right, I can't reply to it, but at least I can read it. Like I said in another email, I would think that it wouldn't be that hard for the developers to have the Get Mail button run a separate process concurrently with Claws.

This would certainly be a good idea. Let me try to explain a little better some of the drawbacks that I am experiencing when using a poor network connection. I often travel with high speed trains. In that situation the network is very slow and intermittent (frequent network freezes due to high speed, tunnels, etc.). - Even syncing a small folder can take minutes... and during the wait CM is simply unusable. - Changing to a different folder does not show the local copy if you are on-line. The message list is shown only after the folder is checked for new mail (and this can take time). - If I am sending a message and want to save a copy to an IMAP folder, the message is not delivered until the copy is saved. If the connection to the IMAP server timeouts, then the delivery is aborted. I have to try if offlineimap can be a good solution. I hope so, because I am missing several features of CM . For sure, Thunderbird is very effective even with poor network connection: you can keep working and all the necessary network transfers are performed in background. For instance, when I change folder, the local cache is shown immediately and only the cursor shows that TB is syncing the folder with the server; in the meantime I can read/answer messages, compose new mail. New messages in the folder are shown as they are downloaded. And if I decide to change folder before the sync has been completed, the new priority of TB is to sync the new folder (the process on the previous folder is completed in background).

I have a shellscript that allows me to type in info for the next vinyl record, while this vinyl record plays and then converts to .ogg and normalizes. All I did was exec a process. I've seen enough of Claws' source code to know that nothing's trivial, but it would seem to me a fairly easy thing to fork a process to get email, so that you can read some email while downloading other email. IIRC Apache works by forking processes too. I think Samba does also.

Yes, but multi-process code is even more complex than multithreading, what with all the IPC involved. :) -- Andrej Kacian From subscript at free.fr Thu Oct 31 17:44:04 2013 From: subscript at free.fr (wwp) Date: Thu, 31 Oct 2013 17:44:04 +0100 Subject: [Users] Finally, I had to switch to Thunderbird.

That's what probably doesn't happen at all in SteveT's example (script that manages vynil-to-ogg flow). Regards, -- wwp -------------- next part -------------- A non-text attachment was scrubbed...

I'm wondering if there's a configuration option that I missed somewhere along the line. I'm running Claws version 3.9.3-94-gc6f41d on Windows 7 Pro. I have a program that auto-generates signatures by pulling quotes out of a text file. It works well, but on occasion generates a signature that would not be appropriate for a particular situation and/or recipient. In Sylpheed, if I hit the 'Append Signature' button in the compose window, it would either append a signature if none exists, or it would replace the signature if one was already present. In Claws, 'insert signature' always inserts a signature, even if one already exists. Is there functionality in Claws to behave the way that Sylpheed does? Yes, I know I can manually delete the 'inappropriate' signature manually, but a) computers are supposed to make life easier and b) I can't think of a situation where I'd want to append 2 signature blocks to a given email.

You fork or doublefork a the subroutine that gets the mail. I'm assuming here, and please tell me I'm right, that this subroutine is pure batch process, not batch process mixed up with GUI. If you mean the need to cancel the thing, that's as simple as saving the forked process's PID, and from the foreground issuing a kill signal to it. If you want the fetch to have a progress bar and a cancel button, put a tiny GUI front end on it. Make it a separate executable for that matter. I know getting threads right is difficult, but spawning processes isn't rocket science.

That's what > probably doesn't happen at all in SteveT's example (script that > manages vynil-to-ogg flow). OK, how about this: Put a flag on the code to grab email so it can be turned off. Then make a copy of the email grabbing routine, and put it in its own executable. People like the original poster and I can just run the email grab from the command line, when *we* decide to, and it won't impact our ability to use Claws while grabbing the mail. If you're worried about someone doing a "delete all" while this is in effect, there could be a flag somewhere (put it in a file for all I care --- reading a file takes no time compared to anything else) saying "this folder is being written to." Seriously, there has to be a simple way.

I haven't looked at Claws's source at all in this regard, but spawning separate processes instead of threads is probably not the issue. Even if it forks[*] instead of spawning a thread, the main Claws process will still need some information that only that subprocess will have, e.g at least a status of the subprocess (DONE, PROGRESS, SUCCESS, FAILURE) and the headers of the messages it's retrieved so that it can display them in the summary window. So now you've got IPC. There are lots of ways of doing IPC, but most get pretty complicated to do correctly when you want a cross-platform solution. Too bad you can't use Python's multiprocessing modules. :) And of course above all else, I want Claws to be extremely robust so there's no possibility of me losing email, or even inaccurately representing the state of my inbox due to loss of synchronization between processes. Or put another way, the Claws developers are all top notch, and I'm sure that if it were easy, it would be done already.
