Mail Client

@Lakota
Thank you. Just swiping from left edge to show the launcher did the trick. -
@Vehi_MV this is a bug in qtubuntu/mir messing up the focus events for multi window apps.
-
@DanChapman Just installed on my M10 and seams very promising ! Thanks for the job. I'll add my contribution to the feedback.
-
Dan, my bq e4.5 is not sending emails, is that a bug from your side or another ubports special feature?
-
@DanChapman Wow, it's great to hear about Dekko2! Thanks for the work.
-
@DanChapman I just received my first notification on Dekko 2, great work Dan. Thank you.
-
did anyone else have problems by deleting mails and sending mails? Or did i have wrong settings in dekko 2...

@Stefan Still having issues sending have sent 3 from the nexus not sure "how” exactly. M10 still no. Still, pleased with how its shaping up. Thanks to all involved.

I installed on my E5 yesterday and spent some time setting up my accounts. It looks great and just like the desktop version which I like a great deal. Email seem to be coming through correctly from sources like ebay and PayPal. However, after a short time playing I did notice the following:
-
Notifications come through great but when I click on them, I am not taken to the email., rather the notification closes. GitLab Ref
-
Trash -There does not seem to be any way to bulk delete the trash emails apart from going into the folder and selecting them all and then deleting. In my mail I can select to empty the trash without going into the folder, the same as spam. GitLab Ref

@UKPhil same for me. I have sent and deleted some mails from my M10 apparently without a problem. But we need to have some popup or notifications to confirm the actions like sending, deleting, etc. Another thoughts to improve the app :
- after deleting a mail I prefer to go back to the inbox rather than going to the next message (like in dekko 1).
- when responding there's no space to write the answer. You have to manually add some lines before the text and it is not very easy to deal with the cursor. It would be great to have some space and the cursor at the right place in order to have the possibility to directly start writing.
Thank you Dan that's a good job that you're doing.

@Stefan I'm using Dekko on my BQ E4.5 for 2++ years daily to read and write/answer mail. Apart of that any software has issues, Dekko works just fine over IMAP and SMTP. Said this, if you want that someone helps you on this, you should provide some more technical details, esp. about the configured accounts.
-
@bq4.5 thanks for that. I will have a look and start logging some bugs.
On the whole though, great work Dan. I do like Dekko. Thanks for your hard work.
I was using it last night and I did notice the following:
-
When you go into and delete a few emails,if you click the top back arrow, I was expecting toto take me back to the original folder. However, it took me back to the emails that I had just deleted. Totally agree that a confirmation box on deleting would be good.Git Ref
-
On my E5 I was unable to send any emails. I clicked on the send arrow and nothing happened. - GitLab Ref

-
I just want to thank @DanChapman for the great work on Dekko! I am so glad that he started again the work on the click package - we need it very much!
Regarding a confirmation dialog for deleting a message I just wanted to share that I am very pleased with the current behavior without a confirmation dialog but it displays an undo button. So, in order to please everybody, maybe there could be a switch in setting whether to ask for confirmation or not before deleting a message.
Thank you again.

+1 against a confirmation dialog
-
@mihael Actually there is an undo button ! I didn't noticed it because it is not avalaible in my BQ E5. I assume it is because I still use the Canonical image. But I have UBports in my BQ M10FHD and there is an undo button. I agree that it is even better since it notifies and let you undo in case it was a mistake. I think it is the perfect solution for most of the actions.
I still think that a confirmation dialog after sending a message (or any action that you can't undo) would be good. Its a good thing to know that an action went successfully and that nothing crashed, especially now we are testing this new (and so good !) app.
-
@RedXXIII I found the undo button on my E5 ! It only appears on the inbox page. So it will disappear by the time you go back to inbox if you delete your message from it's display (unless you go fast !).
-
On my E4.5 running Dekko 0.6.20 from Canonicals last OTA, I do not have any undo button for doing an undo of a deleted mail. I can go (slide) to the Deleted Mails for this mail account and the deleted mails are there; when I now delete there a mail, it moves back to the Inbox. This is fine for me.
I do not want any other undo button (because it costs space) and I do not want to have any confirmation dialog for any deletion of a mail. It already costs a lot of time to delete say 40 mails, esp. because one can not delete full threads with one click. This is a really missing feature.
-
@guru Sorry I was talking about Dekko 2 (0.1.2, experimental release). I have the same thing with Dekko 1 (0.6.20, no longer supported) than you told. Both Dekko 1 & 2 versions are available in the Canonical image but only Dekko 2 with UBports. The undo button is not invasive as it appears and disappears (=adding then removing 1 row in the email list).
You can easily delete several emails at the same time by doing a long press in one of them. That will activate the "multiple selection page". After selecting the emails you can do some actions like deleting, mark as unread, etc. The problem would be the "several" word : how many emails can you select in order to successfully achieve the action ? I don't know but I think that my E5 will crash if I try with 40 in one time
Hope that comment will help ! -
@RedXXIII Thank you! I'm using Dekko on my E4.5 for more than 2++ years, and did not knew this feature (long press, mark and delete). Ofc, this still far away from deleting a full thread (because I'm not interested in the thread subject or can not help the OP), but it is better then sliding and deleting any single mail.
