moving messages to the DeltaChat folder not always reliable #654

Open r10s opened 5 years ago

r10s commented 5 years ago

while the moving as such is much better and clearer with the last updates, there are sometimes some messages that are not moved for some reasons.

it's not clear to me yet under which circumstances messages are not moved, might be related to a multi-device setup, not sure.

any hints on this are warm welcome :)

I hate to say "I told you so" but I told you so ;) https://github.com/deltachat/deltachat-core/issues/548

adbenitez commented 5 years ago

also sometimes I had noticed that messages stay in the inbox until I close Delta Chat and restart it again, others stay forever even after restarting the app

:)

however, i think, things are already much better than before #548, the remaining problem is not a general problem, the moving algorithm is quite clear now and that was not the case before. so, things are not 100% yet, but we're getting closer :)

yes, now most messages are moved, it is really much better now, in my case the main issue is that my network is really unstable, and some times "pure" dc messages are not moved to the INBOX/DeltaChat folder, seems like if something goes wrong while trying to move them, dc doesn't try again. I guess people in fast networks doesn't even have this issue, I am actually amazed that you had experimented it.

in fact, i do not have it often, but i've also seen it :) so, the hint with the flaky network might point to the correct direction for this issue :)
