Re: Modest fixes
baxyp, thanks for your very hard work. i'm a bit paranoid about installing a modest with patches that aren't upstream, though. have you pushed your work upstream and/or to bugzilla?

Re: Modest fixes
@baxyp
Inspired by your patches I've grabbed Modest sources and start to look for a way to skip large emails in POP3. But the code is already there. It reads the msg_size_limit from gconf and then it should skip those messages. I went there and included a 100KB limit to test it but it didn't work: the N900 still lists the >100KB emails in the inbox... Now, the question. Did you see, in any place in modest code, some way of making it behave like this (for POP3)? 1) Skip mails larger then the gconf option (it seems to be already there) 2) When downloading, download the full messages, instead of only the headers, skipping the large emails, of course. |
Re: Modest fixes
I built latest tinymail (1.1.92) and modest 3.4.8. Works but segfaults randomly :(

Re: Modest fixes
baxyp, did your changes get pushed to git?
Also i see in the logs that there are still changes now and then, it would be great if somebody now and then could make a new build that we then can use.. (i really hate that modest is part of the firmware update, why oh why oh why) |

Re: Modest fixes
No, my changes are not in git, but both problems, should be resolved there already. Performance improvement patch, which is basically one liner to disable redundant mail checks, could be pushed to git though. I'm not sure I'm doing the right thing there, but it seems to work. Maybe it is better to make a separate bug report about modest checking mail 3 times when send/receive is pressed and let the original developers work on a proper solution. It amazes me though that they have missed such a very obvious flaw. When you run modest with debugging on you can easily see the redundant action taking place (export CAMEL_DEBUG=all; modest) ...

Re: Modest fixes
problem is, and i still am "profiling" that a bit.
But it seems that checking mail kost quickly 10MB of data!! I still dont get how that even is possible. But i have a very expensive phone bill because of that, At least it has to be Modest (dont know anything else). Also a co worker of mine told me the same story, he was through 20MB of data in notime.. |
