            Bug ID: 3532
           Summary: Race condition when receiving via IMAP & sending mail
                    at the same time
    Classification: Unclassified
           Product: Claws Mail
           Version: 3.12.0
          Hardware: PC
                OS: Linux
            Status: NEW
          Severity: major
          Priority: P3
         Component: Folders/IMAP
          Assignee: users at lists.claws-mail.org
          Reporter: mgorny at gentoo.org

I've seen this three times already, though it's not easy to reproduce. I have a
few IMAP accounts with many folders and periodic mail checks enabled. It
happens that when I edit a message in the foreground, claws starts checking
mail in the background and I click 'send'. Now, usually that works somehow.

However, there's some hidden ugly race condition that sometimes makes claws
confuse 'Queue' with another folder. Long story short, claws hangs for a while
(fetching mail bodies, I guess) and then suddenly 'Queue' contains 1000+ mails
that were really in another folder.
