Original author: Jim Nelson
Original description:

I recently removed an account from Geary. After a little bit, these messages
appeared on the console:

    
    
     [deb] 17:58:55 imap-engine-generic-account.vala:263: Refresh of account Gmail account buzz.meeks@gmail.com folders did not complete: Account Gmail account buzz.meeks@gmail.com not opened
    

It appears the background task is still running. Worse, it looks like the
Account object is still in the system somewhere.

The wip branch for Bug 778276 will probably take care of this, so marking as depending on that. This is probably also preventing Geary from shutting down properly at times, so marking Bug 745561 as depending on this.
Comment 2 Michael Gratton 2018-01-12 01:30:37 UTC
Marking this as fixed, since all long-running account operations now depend on the AccountProcessor, and that is being stopped, with any running operation cancelled, when the account is closed.
