Vmail not compatible with latest version of Vim. #204

Closed TheGrandmother closed 8 years ago

TheGrandmother commented 8 years ago

I'm running vim version 7.4.1819 and apparently the --servername option has been dropped :/ Although my gvim version is just 7.4.273 and it works fine. Or maybe I have haven't compiled vim correctly :/

I have the vim version 7.4.1689 and it does support --servername. I don't believe that vim would remove this option, that too in a minor version. Please try compiling it manually with the +clientserver flag.

Known issues: Some linux distros and OSx package vim without the +clientserver flag. Check #173 for more details.

Thanks! You are correct it did not have the clientserver flag enabled.
