[plugin] IMAP & Pop3 Email Manager (2 Viewers)

[WileECoyote]

Mail sent. Yes, I use StreamedMP.

I also thank you for POP3

Hey vrm,
Try these skin files and let me know what you think...

I'm having bit of trouble getting this one to go, not sure what I'm doing wrong. This is allover the error.log

2009-11-12 19:23:56.328646 [ERROR][6]: Exception   :Fout in de toepassing.
-2005530516 (D3DERR_INVALIDCALL)

I'm on W7 x64, MP 1.1 beta1 and trying to access both gmail and hotmail, neither seem to work ok, double checked credentials. The errors do not show up when I do not enter this plugin.

And this is what I see in the plugin.

Hey vrm,
Try these skin files and let me know what you think...

Frankly, I prefer the beautiful "traditional" layout of StreamedMP
So I just slightly rearranged your skin files.

The second screen indicates some strange things when using pop3 account.
Can you please investigate this one?

Thx!
vrm

Hey Joz,
Did you delete your old database before installing the new version?

Also, can you post your complete MediaPortal.log & Error.log files?

Thanks

No worries, it looks great!

I will investigate the Pop issue tonight... I put in a code around the Unicode issue, I think it may be related to that change.

 

[WileECoyote]

Now I know why not many people have taken on this task

This unicode stuff is weird. It seems that both libraries (POP & IMAP) pull the messages from the server in ASCII. When trying to convert from ISO-8859-1 or ISO-8859-2 it treats it as an ASCII string, therefor doesnt covert it. This may take a little time to figure out and fix.

Meanwhile, I will release another version tomorrow night to fix the issue of it pulling (null) values for the email address and Subject...

working good here win7 x64 mp 1.1 latest svn

bug fix request
when no new emails are found, plugin returns nothing, it should return "0"
that way my home screen doesnt display, "new emails" it should display "0 new emails"

 

[solis66]

that way my home screen doesnt display, "new emails" it should display "0 new emails"

...or should perhaps not display anything " ".
Configurable perhaps?

Thanks for your work, WileECoyote.

Interesting... I configured POP3 with the new version of your plugin, then I switched back to the previous version (that have no pop3 support) without having the database file deleted, and now my pop3 mails are encoded right. AND... I'm getting new messages

Hey Blitz,
I have modified the plugin to display nothing when you have no unread messages. I also embedded the words "New Emails" into the plugin and removed it from the control (The first version had "#newEmail New Email" in the label tag, the new version only has "#newEmail")

With that said, would you rather it said "0 New Emails" or nothing?

Also, should the phrase be "2 Unread Email(s)" or "2 New Email(s)"?

Thanks again for the feedback!

Thanks for your work, WileECoyote.

Thanks for the feedback Solis66,
This is a good point, maybe I should include a flag to allow folks to make it show "0 New Emails" or nothing at all?

Interesting... I configured POP3 with the new version of your plugin, then I switched back to the previous version (that have no pop3 support) without having the database file deleted, and now my pop3 mails are encoded right. AND... I'm getting new messages

Yea, POP3 support has been there since the very first release, there was just no option to allow users to add a POP3 account Your are sneeky to figure that out I hadnt worked out all the bugs, so I didnt want to release that part until it was complete.

The past few nights I have been focused on my GMail account, but you might be right... POP3 maybe coverting the Unicode okay. Could you do me a favor and forward one of your Unicode emails to my Hotmail account? I will PM you the address...

Thanks for all the testing and helping me work though these issues! I appreciate your time!
