No worries... Thats one bad thing about releasing beta versions, when things change sometimes not everyone is up to date.

Plugin works fine, but...
...what about this one?
I'm getting there
Instead of adding an additional check each time new mail is retrieved, I thought about a button on the config screen that "Imports" pop messages. That import would pull all the messages for the first time and mark them as read/seen.
I was also thinking about adding an option for "Sound an alert when new messages arrive". Or should I piggy back the sound with one of the other options? I personally would like the audible alert and not the visual alert (pop-up.)
Thoughts?
Just wanted to say thanks for the plugin! Very useful.
Steve
Thanks Steve, I appreciate the feedback!

Update...
I just uploaded version 0.6. Since there was yet another database change, please delete your old database before installing the 0.6 version. It has the following features...
- Refactored the way Accounts were being handled (If you renamed a POP3 Account you would lose all messages.)
- Refactored Config screen to allow a few more options.
- Added checkbox to sound an alert when new messages arrive.
- Added single key delete. The 'd' key will delete a message without prompting.
- Added POP3 Mail import on config screen (To import pop3 messages with the status of read/seen.)
I refactored a lot of code in this version. Try it out and post any issues with logs.
I left the old versions in case there are serious issues with the 0.6 version...

I add an account, save the config, start MP, it's OK.
I start again the Configurator, want to add another account and I notice that the new one overwrites the previously configured one
When I add them one by one, it's OK.
One more thing. I haven't noticed it before, but some POP3 messages won't download from the server. Every time the same messages. I can't see any common patterns in them. This problem occurs with 0.4 too. I can't remember clearly about 0.3 and I don't have it anymore. Any chanche you have it?
EDIT: Found 0.3a. It downloads almost all messages, but there are some more still missing.
Hi,
First thank you for that plugin. It is really useful, has a lot of features, and the skins are really really good!
There s only one thing bugging me which is the way you deal with unread messages.
I use IMAP with Gmail. Every 15 minutes you count the number of unread messages and show an alert. The problem is that if i dont read that message i will have that popup every 15 minutes!
I think the way to go would be to compare to the last time you check, if you have a different number of unread mails or if the unread messages are not the same, then show an alert, but it becomes very annoying to see the alert everytime for a mail which is not new, but just unread.
What do you think?

Hey VRM,
Can you do me a favor and forward a few of your messages that dont download to my MSN account? I will take a look and see what the issue is...
Yea, currently I am using a very simple algorythm to check for new messages. I will be improving that as time goes on, but there are only so many hours in the day
Update...
I just posted 0.6a with the following changes/fixes...
- Fixed "Add New Account" bug reported by VRM
- Fixed import bug reported by VRM (The difference from 0.3a was I changed the encoding and removed another check for apostrophies, I added the check back in.)
- Fixed new message algorythm to only report New messages from previous check.
Please report any bugs here and as always, please post logs with issues...
