error: “Missing ')'

Reported by matthias | June 16th, 2018 @ 10:31 AM

Hello,

with one of my mail accounts I encounter this error:
MailMate encountered the following error: “Missing ')' at end of flag group.”.
Mailbox: “Junk”.

It's the mailbox of my provider.
AppleMail on the iPhone is not complaining ;-)

What to do (I have no control over the mail server)?

thanks

    Hello again,

    the error appeared with the last built: 1.11.2 (5479) and yes, it's annoying ;-)

    cheers

    Sorry about the late response. Could you send me a set of logs by doing as follows:

    • Open the Activity Viewer (⌥⌘0). This enables logging.
    • Trigger the error to appear at least once.
    • Use “Help ▸ Send Server Logs”.

    The error message indicates a server bug, but maybe something triggers MailMate to parse a response incorrectly. But even if the server is to blame then I'll look into working around it.

    Hello Benny,
    I checked the log, the error is not appearing there. Maybe I miss some setting.
    All what I get is this dialog box, with the 3 buttons. I sent the log anyway.
    The header says that the server software is Rockliffe SMTPRA 6.1.22
    cheers
    Matthias

    Hold down ⌥ when clicking “Check Now” in the Software Update preferences pane. I've added a quick workaround for this server issue, but it's completely untested. Let me know if it did not work.
