Thanks @thrrgilag for shedding light on this!
Still doubt if Email is closed source by Jolla (never heard of this before), but it's another topic I think..Another question: I would like to try Dekko 2 on Desktop. Is it possible now? If not, does somebody trying to achieve that?
-
@thrrgilag, personally I think that due to Dekko plugin nature, it's feasible to try to make UI plugin implementing chats similar which Deltachat has.
I see no reason to have separate programs just for different mails representation..
Maybe merge the two projects in the future. Just a thoughts.. -

Still doubt if Email is closed source by Jolla (never heard of this before), but it's another topic I think..If it's open source they aren't exactly making it easy to locate. I looked at the github and gitlab locations and no projects or source for the email app. I've checked this thread https://together.jolla.com/question/41724/sailfish-os-source-code-location/ which states that their apps are closed source. I'd love to be proven wrong though.
Another question: I would like to try Dekko 2 on Desktop. Is it possible now? If not, does somebody trying to achieve that?
It's available as a snap. I have it running on my laptop in fact.

Still doubt if Email is closed source by Jolla (never heard of this before), but it's another topic I think..The UI is closed source the underlying things not - as in most of Sailfish native apps except the browser - although you can find pretty much by looking into the system files as many things are in qml and not hidden ...
What is open source and what not in Sailfish OS -
@hummlbach Do we have a small idea where the multipart problem could come from? Just asking to know if we should try to get more help rushing in

Maybe @hummlbach knows more than me (would be no big surprise) but, I'd say: Bring the cavalry!

@doniks I've just tested the alfa release on Pro 5 and it seams that all works, but you can't see the content of the received email. Only the header. Setup, notifications works just fine. No crashes so far.

The status of the investigations concerning the multi part mails is, that dekko2 has a database in
.cache/dekko2.dekkoproject/database/qmailstore.dbto keep track of the mails. In that database it keeps the meta data and also the path to the file in which the actual mail is stored, for example:/home/phablet/.cache/dekko2.dekkoproject/mail/1534752857.4528.nEvJp. If its a multi part email theres a directory additionally, then called1534752857.4528.nEvJp-partswith a file for each part. The directory is there also in xenial, but its empty, so the files for the parts are missing... So the next step is to investigate why dekkod fails to put the files there i think. I didn't get where dekkod puts his log yet... I had the impression, that its log messages do not end up in the usual place... I think i can solve this one soon, but even then, there are two other bugs waiting to get attention:- a few html mails are not displayed properly
- some time dekko thinks that a single part message was multi part resulting in a crash
I actually "promised" (Rudi) to have dekko ready by end of august - thats seems to be a tough goal now...
So depending on when we want/need to have dekko ready, you may want to get some more helping hands in:@doniks said in Dekko2 Developer Community Thread:

hehe
-
Update: the multi part mails do not show up problem is not competely understood, but found and at least workarounded... Next most important thing is to find out why dekko sometimes thinks single part mails were multi part...
-
@stefano I can't see the content of no mail
-
@rocky58 You have to wait for the next update.
-
I'm very happy to announce, we have a beta version out. Get it here: https://gitlab.com/dekkan/dekko/tags/0.1.6-beta1
-
@hummlbach Working nexus 5 full view of email fresh install no alpha.Not working on OPO after alpha.
-
@all If you tried the alpha make sure to reboot and clear the cache (.cache/dekko*). After you will need to setup the account again.
@Lakotaubp after all we saw, it sounds pretty much like a race condition in account setup/initial account sync. hum... Strange that account setup seems to work better with the alpha for you, Joan and Rudy (all oneplus one btw...).
-
This is awesome! I cleared the cache, rebooted and then installed the new beta version. I had to re-add the accounts, but it works good so far. Excellent job!
Pro5 by the way. -
@hummlbach Clearly a very good work.
Are you authorized, could you put your work on the openstore so as to avoid to reinstall parameters at every update ?
-
@domubpkm i will discuss that with @Flohack and @bhdouglass. Maybe we defer putting it on openstore until the account setup problems are solved.
-
Openstore should have stable versions only otherwise we ruin the user experience. So only minor glitches allowed. Account setup should be fluent
-
@hummlbach @Flohack clear thanks. The question had to be posed so as to everybody understand
