Vmail does not retrieve new email with ,u or u command #199

Open habpygo opened 8 years ago

habpygo commented 8 years ago

Vmail does retrieve all my new messages when I start it up, but once it's running the commands ,u or u have no effect. At the bottom it says "checking for new messages. please wait,” but nothing happens. To see the new message I have to leave Vmail and fire it up again.

Note:

  1. I don't get any error messages while Vmail is trying to fetch the new email
  2. I do have Mail.app running where I can see that the email was received in the email account
  3. The logfile gives the message —D, [2016-02-10T15:54:08.453374 #2611] DEBUG -- : Highest seqno: 1000— and this seqno does not change during the process

Is this a gmail or Vmail problem. Does anyone have any idea?

@habpy, if your issue is related to #200, then it has been fixed in the new Vmail version. Please update the gem by using gem update vmail. Let me know if it fixes the problem.

danchoi commented 8 years ago

@notalex #200 is a separate issue from this one. I've discussed both issues a little with @habpy before asking him to post this issue up here. The issue here is that the max sequence number check on his INBOX is constantly 1000.

@habpy, can you check if the sent messages mailbox now updates with new messages? When we tried it before, opening that mailbox crashed for you. It shouldn't crash anymore after the patch, or if you keep the Vmail window wide enough.

habpygo commented 8 years ago

@danchoi, #200 has been partly solved. No crashes anymore, however, the Sent Messages mail box does not show sent messages from Feb 15 onward. I’ve tested Vmail today, but I do not see any sent messages.

Regarding #199, if I switch with ,m from Inbox to Sent Messages and back again, new email messages are retrieved, so that works.

So in summary:

  1. Vmail does retrieve new messages when it is launched
  2. Once Vmail is launched the command ,u does not work.
  3. Switching from Inbox to Sent messages and back again does retrieve new email messages
  4. Sent Messages mailbox does not show sent messages.

@notalex https://github.com/notalex #200 https://github.com/danchoi/vmail/issues/200 is a separate issue from this one. I've discussed both issues a little with @habpy https://github.com/habpy before asking him to post this issue up here. The issue here is that the max sequence number check on his INBOX is constantly 1000.

@hapby can you check if the sent messages mailbox now updates with new messages? When we tried it before, opening that mailbox crashed for you. It shouldn't crash anymore after the patch, or if you keep the Vmail window wide enough.

@danchoi,@notalex following up on #200, when sending messages from Mail.app these message do show up in the Vmail Sent Messages mailbox. Messages sent from Vmail do not show up in the Sent Message mail box.

habpygo commented 8 years ago

@danchoi, @notalex Following up on #200, when sending email from Mail.app the sent message does show up in Vmail's Sent Messages mail box; however, messages sent from Vmail do NOT show up in the Sent Messages mail box.

habpygo commented 8 years ago

Sorry, clicked the wrong button. #199 and #200 are still open

danchoi commented 8 years ago

@habpy Do the new sent messages not show up, even when Vmail restarts?

habpygo commented 8 years ago

@dachoi No, even when Vmail is fired up the messages sent earlier from Vmail do not show up.

Harry Sent from Vmail.

danchoi commented 8 years ago

@habpy I'd like to make clear the situation. Please let me know if this summary is correct:

  1. The INBOX does not update to show new messages after startup after pressing ,u
  2. On startup, the INBOX does show the most recently received messages.
  3. Vmail does not show any recently sent messages messages in "Sent Messages", both on startup and after hitting the update key sequence ,u
danchoi commented 8 years ago

@habpy Are you comfortable with using the Unix command line and running tools like the git command? If so I can walk you through some steps to help investigate the issue further.

habpygo commented 8 years ago

@danchoi, 1 and 2 are correct.

3 is partly correct. Sending messages from the gmail account from Mail.app do show up after Vmail is launched. Mails sent from Vmail do not show up at all, also not after starting up Vmail.

See screenshots. The email sent from Vmail does not show in the sent messages mail box of Vmail

That’s correct, there is more output and Vmail starts.

By the way, I assumed git checkout habpy (forgotten p) and -Ilib bin/vmail (forgotten m?) right?

Give me the instructions on all commands to run and we’ll see how far we get.

For now, this is the output (see below) after the ruby -Ilib bin/vmail

@habpy I added a new patch. Can you git pull from the vmail directory and repeat?

danchoi commented 8 years ago

@habpy To be clear about the steps to test further: From the vmail directory you created a git clone at,

git pull
# restart vmail
ruby -I lib bin/vmail
# Run inbox update test in Vmail
habpygo commented 8 years ago

Sorry #danchoi, please explain how I get to the vmail directory that was created earlier?

…in other words, from the Terminal window how do I enter the https://github.com/danchoi/vmail.git https://github.com/danchoi/vmail.git directory?

@habpy, It is the same vmail directory from where you ran ruby -Ilib bin/vmail before.

The directory would most probably be in your home folder.

cd ~/vmail
git pull
ruby -I lib bin/vmail

If you cannot find the directory, you may perform the same steps as you did the first time.

git clone https://github.com/danchoi/vmail.git
cd vmail
git checkout habpy
ruby -Ilib bin/vmail
habpygo commented 8 years ago

Ah...didn't know it was that simple.

It's getting a bit strange. After I started Vmail the ,u command worked two times. After that it stopped working. It's an enigma to me.

@danchoi, @Alex, are you waiting for me or am I waiting for you. As as I said in the last post, it still isn't working.

OK, no rush. I was worried that I didn't understand the procedure.

@habpy, Vmail has an auto polling option. You will need to set polling: true in your .vmailrc. Please give it a try. The inbox should populate automatically.

If you need help with setting up .vmailrc let me know.

habpygo commented 8 years ago

I tried that option in the past as well, but it doesn't work. Neither ,u or u works, or automatic polling in general. No new mail is retrieved at all. As I said before, new messages are retrieved during start.

Please clear your vmail log. Keep polling: true set. Send yourself an email. Startup vmail with ruby -Ilib bin/vmail like explained before. Send yourself an email. Let vmail run for atleast 2 minutes. Send me the log file contents.

danchoi commented 8 years ago

@habpy @notalex Could @habpy post the logs from now on as GitHub Gists and link to it from there? That would be more convenient. Use the "Gist" link at the very top of this and every GitHub page.

notalex commented 8 years ago

:+1: Let's keep the issue clean.

habpygo commented 8 years ago

@danchoi, @notalex, This time it worked. Both pressing ,u or u from the message list retrieved the emails I sent to myself after starting Vmail with the ruby -Ilib bin/vmail

I removed the vmail.log from the .vmail dir. I see no new file is created. From the vmail dir that was created with the git command, I can't find any vmail.log file. What I did was that I copied the output from the terminal into the file that I send using the "Gist" link (that is I will try; not sure how this works).

notalex commented 8 years ago

@habpy, if ruby -Ilib bin/vmail is working for you, try the regular way to start Vmail and check again. Let us know if the problem is fixed. We don't need the logs if the problem is fixed.

habpygo commented 8 years ago

@notalex, I've tested a couple of times and this is what I found. I tested both ways.

It looks as if the problem arrises when I pres ",u" instead of just "u" in the message list. Pressing "u" in the message list does retrieve new messages as it should be. However, when pressing ",u" it doesn't and -- this is the strange part -- even when I press "u" after that, messages this time are not retrieved! It looks as if the ",u" command blocks proper functioning of the "u" command.

If I want to let it function again properly, I have to leave Vmail and restart again.
