#8479: Mail Daemon is Very Crashy - Debugging Newbie -----------------------------------+---------------------------- Reporter: yebyen | Owner: czeidler Type: bug | Status: new Priority: normal | Milestone: R1 Component: Servers/mail_daemon | Version: R1/Development Resolution: | Keywords: Blocked By: | Blocking: Has a Patch: 0 | Platform: x86 -----------------------------------+---------------------------- Comment (by yebyen): Well I let it synchronize all of my messages and pull down as many bodies as I thought it was going to, then I did ALT+A to select all new messages and ALT+O, to open them all... It eventually opened one window for each message, and they either crashed opening too many, or closed immediately on opening, or on rare occasion required me to press ALT+Q to close all new windows and return to the New Mail window, sometimes finding a dialog about the next message that does not have a registered handler to open. I rebooted at least twice, left the machine on overnight to receive new mail (really incoming mail this time, not just mail that Haiku hadn't seen before) just to see what happened, and this is what happened. When I woke up there was another dialog for "The application: mail_daemon -E ..." quit There was new mail in the mailbox I did not try to read it or ask how many! I think I can live with this bug, may be worth even passing it to others to help demonstrate the necessity of cleaning out your IMAPs. I think I might still have problems with Sync as long as I have too many labels and read/unread messages, even though they are no longer new. So which happens first, this bug report is closed or my IMAP store gets cleaned to bare cupboards? -- Ticket URL: <http://dev.haiku-os.org/ticket/8479#comment:2> Haiku <http://dev.haiku-os.org> Haiku - the operating system.
