[Gmailagent-devel] RFC: How to prevent Gmail lockdowns?

[Stas Z <sta...@gm...>]

Hello,

We should think about the lockdown problem when using libgmail.
I had this afternoon most of mine accounts locked down due to
some heavy testing :-)

Some ideas:
Introduce a pause when fetching extened contacts, this also includes gettin=
g
the notes.

Split 'getting messages' in 'get unread inbox messages' and
'get all inbox messages'.
Seems to me that this would be more usefull then getting all the messages
every time. Getting only the unread messages I mean.

Create some sort of limit for the requesting of pages, so that after an amo=
unt
of request there's a pause.

Let me know what you think of this.
