Comment (by czeidler):
The first part should be fixed now r40943.
Yes MAIL:account is an int id now. To be exact its the creation time. The
problem is that the account name can change or two accounts could have the
same name. In case of changing the account name all already fetched mails
have the wrong account. Any suggestions?, should I just remove the account
attribute from the mime type. I think its quite useful to keep the
attribute to see the origin of the mail but I don't know how to handle
account name changes. There are two solutions:
- run over all mails and update the account string
- hack tracker to show the account name dynamically depending on the
account id
I prefer the second solution since it can also combined with the display
of mail status icons...
