[Users] Things Sometimes Requiring A Manual 'Refresh' Of The Message List

[Dustin Miller]

I just noticed another thing to add to the list of things that require
a manual 'refresh' of the message list ('Update summary' in Menu,
default keyboard shortcut Ctrl + Alt + U) in order to work as expected.

That is related to using sorting by threads and sorting by date (from
oldest above to youngest below). A recent example I observed was
something like this:

[Initial positioning:]
Thread message A-1 Jan 1
 Thread message A-2 Jan 3
 Thread message A-3 Jan 4
Message B Jan 2

After deleting message A-1 I expected the positioning to be

Message B Jan 2
Thread message A-2 Jan 3
 Thread message A-3 Jan 4

but instead I saw

Thread message A-2 Jan 3
Thread message A-3 Jan 4
Message B Jan 2

Once I refreshed the message list, then it showed the expected
positioning.

Other things I can think of offhand that require a manual refresh are:

* Restoring color labels if/when they've been lost.
* Showing one or more downloaded messages. (This happens pretty rarely
  for me, and I think it's usually only when one message is being
  downloaded.

I can see where the need for a manual refresh would make sense for some
things, but the three things mentioned here seem like things for which
an automatic refresh would make sense.

It's possible that these are not Claws 'bugs' but rather related to
theming somehow. And I've also gotten pretty used to doing manual
refreshes, so it's not really a big deal for my use case. But I thought
I'd go ahead and mention it on here in case it's helpful for others to
know.

Not sure if it's relevant, but just in case, this is on Claws Mail
4.3.0git44 on Sparky 7.x Xfce (based on Debian 12), using the
'Mint-L-Theme' v1.9.6 from Linux Mint Debian Edition 6 “Faye”.
