Description mark krischer 2002-01-15 02:13:50 UTC 
Package: Evolution
Priority: Major
Version: 1.0.1
Synopsis: IMAP link disconnect cause complete loss of state
Bugzilla-Product: Evolution
Bugzilla-Component: Mailer

Description:
if the link to the IMAP server goes down while evolution is open, upon
regaining the connection all
previous state is completely lost--so all the work of going through
email in you INBOX has to be started all
over again.  i consider this to be *critical*.

it's not critical because oit won't happen often, if it does then I
would start beating your mail sys admin :-)
Comment 2 Peter Williams 2002-08-28 21:48:02 UTC 
I think someone got the dependencies backwards here.
Comment 3 Jeffrey Stedfast 2002-09-13 21:25:02 UTC 
this is going to have to wait until we rewrite imap (just add yourself
to the "IMAP Rewrite" bug)
