GNOME Bugzilla – Bug 206015
w/ hide deleted messages in open window pressing "delete" does not load next message
Last modified: 2013-09-10 14:02:36 UTC
Package: Evolution Priority: Normal Version: 0.11.99 Synopsis: In open message window, pressing "delete" does not load next message Bugzilla-Product: Evolution Bugzilla-Component: Mailer Description: I don't like using the preview pane; instead, I double-click to open a message. I would expect that, in the open message window, pressing the "delete" icon would delete the current message _and_ open the next message. However, it actually deletes the current message, and then leaves a blank message window open rather than automatically loading the next message. Note that this only happens if the "next message" has not already been read. If the next message _has_ been read and is in the local cache, everything works as expected. Unknown reporter: zbeckman@boldsoftware.com, changed to bugbuddy-import@ximian.com.
this works in CVS so I'm gonna close this as fixed.
I just obtained the latest update (0.12.99) and I'm still seeing this behavior. It basically makes the popup mail window useless, except for reading one message (you have to close the window and double-click on another message in order to continue reading). Perhaps this is only a bug with IMAP. It always occurs for messages that have not yet been read--which, on an IMAP server, probably also means a message that has not yet been _downloaded._ HOWEVER, I'm also seeing it on message that _have_ been downloaded, but not consistently. I hope that helps narrow down the problem.
dude, I cannot reproduce this - it works just like you want it to for me. No one here can reproduce this.
I can reproduce this trivially by following the provided directions.
show me. I still can't reproduce it.
Um, I was surprised, but it actually worked for me as well.
so it turns out that it works for danw as well if he presses the delete icon, but if he uses the "Delete" key on the keyboard, it doesn't. I'll have to wait till I get new mail to try this...
update: so, not *only* do you have to be using the Delete keyboard button, but you also have to have focus in the main window (not the message-browser window) AND you have to have "Hide Deleted Messages" toggled. no wonder I couldn't reproduce it before...I was doing none of these things.

can you still reproduce this? I'm not able to...
Yes.
Yes. In my case, it is 100% consistent (meaning, I have never seen this work, it always breaks). My options are thus: Turn OFF the preview pane. Turn ON "hide deleted messages." Open your message by double-clicking on it. Click the delete icon on the message window that just opened. ALWAYS, the window goes blank and I have to close it or press the "next" icon (in which case, it skips a message). So it seems that the "message pointer" is going to the right place, but the window is not displaying it.

okay, so the reason this gets a blank page is because it received the signal that the message has been deleted (and since you have "Hide Deleted Messages" toggled, the message gets hidden) but since you pressed Delete in the MAIN window, it only selects the next message in the MAIN window, not the MessageBrowser window.
n/m, the problem is that we need to somehow connect the MessageBrowser's (hidden) message-list callbacks up to the main window's message-list signals.
fixed in CVS but probably broke a hundred other things, oh well...

Has this cropped up again?
Apparently broken again. Trash can button works but delete key does not. Only 1.0 if you have time on your hands, jeff.
I don't get it, it works perfectly for me... do you have your message-list in threaded mode maybe?
just tried with Threaded List mode on and it worked perfectly for me yet again... I have no idea.
Weird. Works for me now too; it didn't when I tried it last night. No idea what changed. Marking as CLOSED, I guess. Bob, Jorge, can you still reproduce?
yep, it does...with last snapshot 11021558
i think i know what happens.... it doesnt display the next message if i have enabled "Hide deleted messages"...but, ...if you disable Hide deleted messages before open a message...then open a message, NOW select hide deleted messages, click over the trash in the message window....it does display the next message....so , if you have enabled hide deleted message "before" open a message i t doesnt work...i hope it helps...
I still get a blank window if Hide deleted messages is checked.. I don't think this is the correct behavior..
Yeah, reopening. 1.0.x correctness.
Patch attached should fix.
Created attachment 40519 [details] [review] should fix delete clears, and also 'get mail resets' bugs.
Making it 1.0 again, since the fix is trivial afterall.
Patc applied.
I have to add something...usinf EVO 1.0, this thing doesnt work....if i open a message (double click) in a new window, then i delete the message (with "Hide deleted message" eneabled), in the message window i can still see the message, and it's the only message in the folder....the only thing that it change, it's that the icons in the message window taskbar goes blank (disabled)...but the window doesnt goes blank...what i think it should be correct behavior...
