I believe this is the same issue as #632, but I
wanted to add some additional info, in case it is not the same.
I have a trial of MailMate, I just began 4 days ago (BTW, I
really like it, and want it to work for me!)
I have MailMate setup with 8 accounts, 5 of which are GMAIL. One
of them is particularly large (all mail= 174,607 and Inbox=2350,
about 950 Labels/IMAP Folders). The Large GMAIL account does not
update, and I don't see new mail until I restart MailMate.
As noted in #632, this issue seems to be related to IMAP
synchonizing of folders... for my smaller accounts, I can see that
once IMAP is synchronized (no more busy icon next to the account),
the INBOX of those accounts will start working.
So, MailMate cannot update the INBOX if it is busy synchronizing
IMAP folders??? I think this is the bug.
All of my Gmail/IMAP sub-folders were under INBOX, I thought
this might cause issues with INBOX updating, so I moved all IMAP
folders outside to a folder call FILING (did this in the Gmail Web
Interface). This made the problem worse (INBOX was not updated on
restart), as it seems that FILING was being sync's before INBOX
(alphabetical?). So I renamed FILING to ZFILING (GMail Web
Interface) and this allowed the INBOX to update again after a
restart of MailMate, but it doesn't help with getting the INBOX
updated regularly. So, none of that seemed to help... and it seems
that I need to wait (for days) until my IMAP folders are
synchronized until the INBOX will work properly.
Is a way to periodically check the INBOX even if all IMAP
folders have not been synchronized?
