Dear community,
today I was able to merge the latest open shelveset for a new IMAP related functionality. This version 0.4.6 can be found now at the well known places and includes the following changes and enhancements:

• fix for IMAP mail size detection
• functionality to move messages to trash instead of delete messages permanently (IMAP only) added (Important: This functionality requires an existing folder named “Trash” in your configured mailbox)
• DefaultWide skin files updated (thx to @catavolt)
• translations added

Due to missing proposals or enhancement requests I expect, that the offered features are more than enough now. Because of this, I would declare this version as "feature-freeze" until the final release will be published in January.
Accordingly only enhancements to existing encoding or mail text cleanup issues are planned now, nevertheless reported bugs will be fixed as soon as possible.

Thanks to all who helped me during the development phase,
Micropolis

Hi Alex, new "bug" found:
If you´re playing movie/TV and check your Email, then marking mails for deletion pauses the Movie/TV (or when paused unpauses it)

Hi catavolt,

Hi Alex, new "bug" found:
If you´re playing movie/TV and check your Email, then marking mails for deletion pauses the Movie/TV (or when paused unpauses it)

I've tried some alternatives to "filter" the space key for MailTip only, but absolutely no success.
So I think there's no other way than changing the keys. I would say "0" will select the entry, "ENTER" will open the popup (or vice versa). What do you (or other) think about it?

EDIT: The described behavior should work with v0.5.0. Maybe in a later version we can make the button handling configurable.

Cheers, Micropolis

"0" selects and "Enter" opens the mail sounds good to me.

Maybe "+" for selecting and "-" for deselecting?

Hi,

... If you´re playing movie/TV and check your Email, then marking mails for deletion pauses the Movie/TV (or when paused unpauses it)...

As I said before, to prevent such issues it is required to use other keys. The functionality to select the preferred key for "select/deselect mail" and "open popup window" was easy to develop, version 0.5.1 contains these required enhancements.

... Maybe "+" for selecting and "-" for deselecting? ...

These keys are not available for list controls (or I don't known, how to capture the list key code).

Please try again with version 0.5.1.
