Re: [Columba-users] Bug: wrong password for mail server results in invalid conversation state

[Andrew S. T. <as...@at...>]

Hi Matthias,

Sorry for not replying to your email earlier.  I somehow forgot to
confirm my list subscription until today.

I figured it was a pretty obvious problem, but I just wanted to make
sure.  Since trying out Columba for a couple of days, I'm not sure that
I can migrate off Evolution yet, unfortunately.  There's some bugs in
the underlying JDK HTMLEditor component when dealing with CSS
measurements in attributes which cause Columba to get really confused on
some of the vendor-supplied emails I get.  This is a problem with the
JRE, not Columba, but it makes it a non-runner at the moment.

Based on any responses I get to my earlier request on the devel list for
development/design documentation showing how the architecture fits
together, I might be able to help some.  I really need an email client
that will work on openSUSE 10.2 since I'd have to recompile the world to
get Evo 1.4.x to work (I did try).  Until then, my email will need to
live on my heavily patched FC4 machine.

Thanks for the reply.

Cheers,

ast
