Oh, that was removed decades ago. It never should've been removed, because what aceman says makes sense. I preferred pre-tabs Thunderbird, and majority such changes have been annoying: I still wish I could just have one inbox (multiple movemail AND multiple POP3) which '"one' inbox' also means NO tabs opening EVER (sure, I disabled them, but they still open from various things)... got a bit off-topic now but I don't think wishes of users, to not have such changes forced, were addressed. So anyway, yes, please re-add the feature of global inbox for movemail (people I know who use IMAP would also like global inbox.) -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/299261 Title: movemail account does not work with global inbox To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/thunderbird/+bug/299261/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

Considering movemail is similar to pop3 (you pull down msgs locally and then do whatever you want with them), I think this option should be possible. It should be a matter of exposing the prefs (also in the Account manager) and make the movemail backend honor them if it doesn't already. I can probably look at that (seems I already assigned it to myself in the past), but can't look at it due to always finding other higher priority bugs. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/299261 Title: movemail account does not work with global inbox To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/thunderbird/+bug/299261/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

Does this definitely make sense? Should there be checkbox? And if implemented, might there be problems?

Tested with thunderbird 2.0.0.18+nobinonly-0ubuntu0.8.10.1 and a fresh profile. The "Use Global Inbox" option is still available. However, with the option enabled, the new movemail account is shown in the folder pane and mail is delivered to the account's inbox. So, the global inbox option in the account creation wizard is now ignored. -- movemail account does not work with global inbox https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/299261 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
