Re: 5.0 showstoppers
Hi, Just realized that that also happens if you start in a subfolder of an IMAP account. this one is driving me nuts. So In an IMAP account, you have a long list of entries all parked. Then I deleted tehm all and some of them come back... Obviously because the folder is refreshed while deleting the mails. -- Best regards Raymund Using 5.0.0.132 BETA on Windows 7 (64 Bit) Current beta is 5.0.0.133 | 'Using TBBETA' information: http://www.silverstones.com/thebat/TBUDLInfo.html
constant AVs for Image Download Manager

Strange behavior od IMAP IDLE Mode.
Hello, I have many troubles with setting IDLE mode to work properly with gmail. I have several folders under my main Inbox folder and set filters to sort all incoming and ongoing mail. I've noticed that IDLE command only works when Inbox folder is selected in The Bat! - then I'm getting instant notifications about new mail and filters are working as expected. But when any other folder is selected then IDLE is not working and I have no notifications at all. It should be possible to use IDLE mode regardless of selected folder as in current form it's unusable. -- br, Zurek Current beta is 5.0.0.133 | 'Using TBBETA' information: http://www.silverstones.com/thebat/TBUDLInfo.html

As I understand it, IDLE mode can only watch one folder per connection and there are some issue with that e.g. idling in the wrong folder. But for me (and probably for many others too) it will be enough. My entire filtering is done on client side so every message goes through my Inbox folder. Problem is that this folder have to be selected in The Bat! for IDLE to work. It works perfectly in Firebird - no matter what folder is selected I'm always getting instant notifications and all incoming messages are properly filtered. If it can work in freeware app, then why it can't be done in The Bat?

That's because I'm using server-side filters and new mail can arrive in multiple folders for me, and I usually be idling on the most important for the moment folder.

It's very annoying to remember to select Inbox after any new read message and I often forget to do this.

RE: Strange behavior od IMAP IDLE Mode.
Hi Vilius, I think you are confusing IDLE with synchronization. And I think you meant subscription here. As you have to be subscribed for synchronization to work, don't you? No and Yes. Subscriptions are not Syncronization (or Pooling in Thunderbird's case). Subscriptions are server side and mainly are used by the IMAP client to separate important and other_available folders. In IMAP you can have hundreds and thousands mailboxes available. For example: user.userA.INBOX user.userA.INBOX.tbbeta user.userA.Trash user.userA.Sent Mail shared#.digitalfax shared#.conference IMAP mailbox shared#.fax can be shared by mail server admins to all users. But not all of them works with fax or need it. So they decide to unsubscribe from that folder. Syncronization works on top of all this by doing actual job by syncing mailboxes, but IMAP client can sync any folder. It doesn't matter if it was subscribed or not. -- Vilius Current beta is 5.0.0.133 | 'Using TBBETA' information: http://www.silverstones.com/thebat/TBUDLInfo.html

And as far as I know 5 is the limit. So if you are using more than 5 folders you have to enable syncronization anyway. IMAP IDLE does not replace syncronization.
