Actually it'll download all the headers but will only show 250 by
default. The first fetch of messages will take some time if you have a
lot but after that the list will be shown much faster because the UI
only will have to sort and filter 250 messages instead of thousands.

Obviously the next step is to download only the required headers but
that implies several risky changes in tinymail.

At least for IMAP, the next Maemo5 update (not yesterday's 1.2009.44-1)
will by default download/show 250 messages and have a button in the
one-folder view to "Download more messages" (or something similar like
that, I don't have my N900 around right now to check).


Great thanks for the info. This list rocks.




Hope that helps,

At least for IMAP, the next Maemo5 update (not yesterday's 1.2009.44-1)
will by default download/show 250 messages and have a button in the
one-folder view to "Download more messages" (or something similar like
that, I don't have my N900 around right now to check).

Hope that helps,

Limit the email client to a x period

2010-01-12 Thread Kahlil Johnson
Hi I submitted this bug which I wonder if there is any interested
beside mine to support. The request for a feature to limit the amount
of email retrieved from the maemo client.

Most people dont need all our Inbox and specially on a mobile client,
not even the header. So my request is for a tool that allow me to have
a 1 month/week inbox that I can retrieve from IMAP or POP.

I am not sure if this is possible at all because I am not a guru of
the email system or how it works but the goal is to just be able to
check the latest email without waiting too much for the client to
recieve all the updates or store any of them.
