Hey there,
I recently upgraded my operating system twice and am now using Claws
Mail 4.0.0 under Kubuntu 22.04 LTS. In a much older version of Claws
Mail, I was able to temporarily enable the "Open last opened folder
at startup" option in the Summaries tab in Preferences, make sure the
Inbox was selected, then close and reopen Claws Mail and disable that
setting again. Claws Mail would then open the Inbox on startup from
then on forevermore, which was perfect.
That "trick" no longer works for me in this new environment, with the
available options seeming to be for Claws Mail to start up in the last
location I happened to be in (which I don't want since I don't always
finish my session in the inbox) or with the very top (newsgroups)
folder selected, but not opened, which I also don't want. The
https://lists.claws-mail.org/pipermail/users/2014-April/009210.html
page recommends using the claws-mail --select inbox command to force
the inbox to be opened every time and that works perfectly, so I'd
like to use it.
I'm seeing these warnings, however, when I run it in a terminal
window:
(claws-mail:34973): Gtk-WARNING **: 20:35:20.587: Negative content
width -3 (allocation 17, extents 10x10) while allocating gadget (node
button, owner GtkButton) selecting folder 'inbox'
(claws-mail:34973): Gtk-WARNING **: 20:35:21.091: Negative content
width -3 (allocation 17, extents 10x10) while allocating gadget (node
button, owner GtkButton)
I'll be running Claws Mail from a GUI shortcut, so I won't even see
those warnings, but since I saw them when I tested that command in a
terminal, I figured I'd come in here and check if they're anything to
worry about or if I can safely ignore them since I'm using KDE. Any
advice would be appreciated.
