326 Strange "undo delete" issue was updated
  • David Crippen
    David Crippen commented at 9:22 PM

    It disappears. Not on any folder anywhere. Says it's undeleted but it doesn't pop up in "inbox" and doesn't show up in "Deleted mail" or trash.

    I'll take a seri...

    That is not a known issue.
    Is it reproducible?
    What is the mailbox location of the message when you delete it?

    When I accidentally delete something, then go to Edit>undu delete, it says it does, but I can't find the deleted message anywhere. Not in inbox and not in "dele...

    Yes, my server is IMAP. I need all mail from MailMate to somehow end up on folders on my desktop. That's where Mail Steward finds it and archives it. Won't take...

    I'm not sure I quite understand the question, but I can give you some facts which might answer it:

328 Unexpected end tag, '220', while expecting '*' was updated
  • benny
    benny commented at 9:11 PM

    Looks like you are using an SMTP port for IMAP? (220 means OK in SMTP lingo)

    Hi Benny
    Any idea what this error might mean? Trying to add a new IMAP source (my university email account) and I get this error.
    Thanks

    An easy workaround is to "control-click" an address in the header. This will bring down a menu allowing you to copy it, then paste it elsewhere.

    A fixed version should be out in a few minutes. Sorry about the inconvenience.

  • benny

    I think it'll stop doing it if you disable crash reporting (General preferences pane).

    I'll make sure to fix it soon and have a new version uploaded.

    It's a primitive IMAP server (no UIDPLUS extension), but I think the message revealed a bug in MailMate. It may not happen again with other messages.
