Re: [Logicmail-users] Logicmail 2.0 and mail retrieval

[George S. <ge...@mh...>]

FWIW, here are my things for 2.x:

 

LogicMail can't open some messages. Just say's there are no parts to display
or it can't display the parts.

 

For the Storm, a delete icon would be really nice. There are several blank
icon spots in the folder view. Make one of them message delete.

 

Multiple message move/delete. IOW, the UI should support marking multiple
messages and deleting or moving them. If you can't do this, move should at
least default to the last selected folder.

 

Bucketing messages. Right now, you bucket by day. What I would like to see
is if the message is older than two days but this week, create a heading
called "this week". If it's prior to the start of this week, but less than
two weeks old, make heading called "last week". For all other messages, make
a folder named "Older".

 

Attachment handling. It would be nice if you could handle at least the same
mime types that the blackberry mail program can handle. E.G. PDFS, images,
and Office Docs.

 

For me, all of these are more important that message counts or background
message checking.

I know this is the #1 user-requested feature of all time.  While it may
sound easy to implement, once you think through all the nuances and corner
cases, its actually difficult to design and a nightmare to fully test.
That's why I ultimately decided to bump it to v2.1, so I could at least get
the v2.0 code into widespread use and make everyone stop using v1.1.

 

I explained that near the bottom of my blog post annoucing the release, but
I can understand how almost everyound would gloss over that paragraph :-)

 

This is my #1 feature for 2.1, and has higher priority than almost
everything else, so I'll start doing the design work for it very soon.

 

If you have any ideas for the design, feel free to share them.  These are
some issues to consider, and come up with answers for:

- How should configuration work?  What should be global, and what should be
per-account?

- Should this be just INBOX, all folders, specific folders, configurable
list of folders?

- How should the home screen notification icon's message-count number be
computed?

- etc, etc.

 

P.S. 2.0 does support IMAP IDLE, but that's only useful as long as you have
an active connection, and isn't really a very reliable option (by itself)
for this purpose.

Hi,

 

Is there a way to set Logicmail 2.0 to check email every 15 or 20 minutes
and run in the back ground or will this be added  in the future?

 

Thanks

John
