Also IMHO using of Inline is wrong, Unfortuantely e.g. Enigmail is using
it by default and some other mailer cannot handle PGP/MIME in propper way.

Linux Mint 17 Cinnamon both 32 and 64 bit versions
Sylpheed 3.5.0beta1

I am able to build Sylpheed using the following:

sudo apt-get -y install build-essential # essential
sudo apt-get -y install libgtk2.0-dev # 50 files!
sudo apt-get -y install libgtk-3-dev # 4 more files
sudo apt-get -y install curl # sylpheed 2 files
sudo ./configure -prefix="/usr"
sudo make
sudo make install

It is running great.
Hope that helps someone.

Dear Hiroyuki,

In sylpheed, I have noticed that threading is not preserved when I move all the messages in a thread from one folder to another. Is there a setting which permits this? if not, it would be nice if this feature were included.

Thanks!

Did you try clicking on 'Update folder'? I'm guessing you have to re-read the folder to re-sort.

You could also try Ctrl-T twice to re-sort.

Hi, Ctrl-T twice does not do 
it. However, "Update summary" (Ctrl+Alt+U) brings back the threading. Is there a way to set a default option of preserving threading after a 
folder move? That would be very helpful otherwise this would be quite 
taxing to do for every message moved.

Thanks!

I can't help you there.

On the other hand, I only rarely move message by hand. I'm subscribed
to 25+ mailing lists and have filters defined to move the messages
automatically to the folder. I never had any problem with threading
that way.

However, you might get lucky trying Preferences->Common
preferences->Details->Advanced, and enabling 'Enable strict checking'.

I am confused: this as far as I can tell, should not have anything to do with how messages are moved, or perhaps I am mistaken.

What does "Enable strict checking" mean/do?

Thanks!

Hello everybody,
i am using sylpheed 3.4.0 beta on lubuntu (there's no update here for 
3.4.2). I have just seen that all the imap emails have disappeared from 
the Mail folder. The few ones that were saved without a particular email 
account in Mail/draft and Mail/sent are still there.
Before noticing this i've run a small regular update that the lubuntu 
update manager proposed like always. I don't even know what update that 
was.
Now sylpheed is empty when i start it and asks to configure an email 
account. Does anybody have an idea what happend?
Thank you!

Is it possible that you accidentally pressed the button for display only read e-mails? Or accidentally hit Ctr-A-Del (which deleted all your e-mails)? I am guilty of doing such things sometimes....

Message-ID: <20140917215620.c36f17fc331372e3bdafee7b@pisquared.net>

My wife and I have been using Sylpheed for a long time. We currently are
using 3.5.0beta1.

Recently, she did something to make the text below the icons on the menu
(tool) bar (Get, Get all, Send, Compose, etc.) disappear.

I opened the "Common Preferences" and looked through all of the tabs and
sub-tabs and found nothing. I then looked through the manual and found
nothing.

I finally did a diff of my sylpheedrc and her sylpheedrc. I found that my
toolbar_style was 3 and her toolbar_style was 1. Setting hers to 3
restored the text below the icons on the menu (tool) bar and solved my
problem.

But how does one make the change in the GUI, particularly when one
doesn't have another sylpheedrc with which to compare? Where is that
pesky setting?

Thanks,


Craig

So, it's not even in the configuration settings!

It now makes a little more sense that she could change it inadvertently.

Hi,

more inadvertently can be:

Right click in the toolbar > choose an option

Message-ID: <20140918145323.0e89a724f69c412cdb2f1d6d@yahoo.es>

Hi,

I have a good number of IMAP accounts set (whole family) and
sometimes I need to stop the process of account checkings. The only
way I have to "stop" it is to force Sylpheed to work offline. And I
wrote it between quotes, because that doesn't stop the process. After
that it starts to show an error for every account you set up and is
left to check.

I think would be interesting to have an option to stop the whole
process, because you can't even close Sylpheed. It's almost locked
when retrieval starts.

Regards.

Yes, indeed! Thank you for the tip (and the short-cut to fix things if

Since I can't see the text I wrote I resend this mail...

Hi,
my old PC hardware died and since I wanted to migrate my desktop to Linux for a
long time I think now is a good time to do that.
?
I looked at the website but havn't found anything about that topic, so what is
the proper way to migrate an existing Sylpheed installation from WinXP to Linux
(Mint in my case)?
?
I already copied the sylpheed directory to my linux PC and gave it a shot.
Everything seems to be there until I looked at the folders which where all empty.
?
I also wonder if there is anything else I need to check/change/be aware of?
Any hints are welcome.
?
regards uhel
?

I would set up Sylpheed on the Linux system from scratch, using the
windows Sylpheed presents. Once that is done, note where the top
directory of the email is located (most likely ~/Mail).

Remove that directory and everything under it (cd; rm -r Mail) and copy
your email structure to that location.

Then, right click on "Mailbox (MH)", pull down to "Rebuild folder tree",
and then release your mouse. As far as I know, your emails should now
show up.

BTW, Sylpheed keeps its configuration files on Linux in ~/.sylpheed-2.0.

Message-ID: <20140921065059.602f38c7c274e267fe1c1a0b@zen.co.uk>


Hi,

Recently we've replaced two HP laptops running XP with two Lenovo laptops running Win 7.

We've installed Sylpheed on both.  We have a primary account and six aliases, giving us seven different email addresses.

Strangely, on one of the new machines each incoming email arrives four times and on the other each incoming email arrives seven times.

We've checked all the settings several times against the HP's and can't find any errors.  Any idea what the problem is and what we can do to solve it?

Thanks,

Zak

I didn't notice this option until now but I get "Rebuilding the folder tree 
failed" when using it. In the terminal window I can see 
"chdir: No such file or directory" 
errors for every "Mailbox (MH)" I try to rebuild. sylpheed is looking under 
/home/<user>/ for the "Mailbox (MH)" not in /home/<user>/Mail/.

How can I fix that?

Hello everybody,
I still can't find my emails. They actually can not be gone, because 
there's not more space on the hard disk than before. Some are in the 
hidden folder .sylpheed-2.0/imapcache, but that is not what i am looking 
for.
Now i've configured one of my email accounts again with sylpheed, and 
it's working - but still no emails in the folder Mail/inbox.
Where are the emails being kept?!
Thanks for advice,
Ralf

Hi Ralf,

2 things come to my mind:

1) did you inadvertently move the mails to some other folder?
2) usually you can access your mails via a web based interface from your e-mail provider - did you have a look there?

Best,
Till

1. Of course not.
2. Of course. That's why i can write you these emails.
I repeat, the problem i have is with sylpheed. As far as i know it 
stores the emails in the Mail folder which it actually creates by 
itself. But not any more, in my case.

I find that sometimes computer behavior seems inexplicable, or takes
months before I figure it out - and the cause is not what I thought.
While it doesn't explain what happened, I hope you have a backup copy
of the Mail folder.  It's for moments like this that I do a system disk
file backup every three days and create a restore point at least once a
day.

Now that's a good question!

Using your terminal window, are the directories there? Use the command

permissions for a directory should be drwx------.

In fact, it would be helpful if you would reply with the contents of the
ls -o command for your home directory: cd; ls -o

As an example for this account the error message Sylpheed gave me is
"/home/<user>/uhel at gmx: chdir: No such file or directory"
which is correct because the mailbox resides in /home/<user>/Mail/uhel at gmx.

Mail has drwxr-xr-x and the mailboxes in ~/Mail also have drwxr-xr-x so the 
access rights shouldn't be a problem.

Well, that clarified things.

I moved my .sylpheed-2.0 and Mail directories to another directory and
ran Sylpheed (3.5.0beta1). It gave me a choice where to make the mh
directory; I took the default (~/Mail).

Looking at the new .sylpheed-2.0 directory, I found in the file
folderlist.xml the following:

----------------------------------------------------------------

<folderlist>
    <folder type="mh" name="Mailbox" path="Mail">
        <folderitem type="draft" name="draft" path="draft" threaded="1"
                 mtime="0" new="0" unread="0" total="0" />
        <folderitem type="junk" name="junk" path="junk" threaded="1"
                 mtime="0" new="0" unread="0" total="0" />
        <folderitem type="trash" name="trash" path="trash" threaded="1"
                 mtime="0" new="0" unread="0" total="0" />
        <folderitem type="outbox" name="sent" path="sent" threaded="1"
                 mtime="0" new="0" unread="0" total="0" />
        <folderitem type="inbox" name="inbox" path="inbox" threaded="1"
                 mtime="0" new="0" unread="0" total="0" />
        <folderitem type="queue" name="queue" path="queue" threaded="1"
                 mtime="0" new="0" unread="0" total="0" />
    </folder>
</folderlist>

----------------------------------------------------------------

So you can either start Sylpheed's set-up process as I did above and
then rebuild the folder tree, or edit ~/.sylpheed-2.0/folderlist.xml to
change the path to what is shown in the second line of the file as listed
above and then rebuild the folder tree.

Hi,

I'm going to say a stupid thing, that is the reason I haven't replied
yet, but in Windows there is a sylpheed.ini, isn't there a Linux
equivalent?

http://sylpheeddoc.sourceforge.net/en/faq/sylpheed-faq-2.html#d0e1507

Here I read that you can change the path in folderlist.xml but that
doesn't "fix" the problem of specify where should be the mails
folder (that is strange it is searchin in the user root folder), but
a mixed workarround, changing the main <folder> declaration path.

http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=258717

But I won't do myself because using the current path of the
configuration files to specify another path is mix things too much,
in my opinion. All files are or should be in the same path.

If you try, remember to make backups of all first.

Tell us if you try it.

Regards.

Linux is much different than Windows (in many more ways than just
Sylpheed! :-) )

The files in question for Linux are:

	~/.sylpheed-2.0/accountrc
	~/.sylpheed-2.0/folderlist.xml
	~/.sylpheed-2.0/sylpheedrc

Editing the path definition in folderlist.xml or restarting from zero as
I did in my previous response is the way to change it.

That is a very old thread. The solution I have posited above is mentioned
by "rollps" on November 18th 2006 and acknowledged by "berserker" also on
November 18th 2006, who also asks about S/MIME. The next post by
"berserker" is on February 12th 2007 and he mentions nothing about the
advice about folderlist.xml being bad and does say he can send emails.

I'm not sure what you mean. I have ~/.sylpheed-2.0 and ~/Mail.


> If you try, remember to make backups of all first.

Good idea.


> Tell us if you try it.

I tried it. I moved my Mail directory and all of its sub-directories
to /tmp, edited ~/.sylpheed-2.0 as I have mentioned, and restarted
Sylpheed. It works just fine.

Hi,

Nice it worked.

I know Linux is different, I just don't use as my main OS and now
I don't have even a partition for it. **That's the reason I said I was
going to said a stupid thing**, because I couldn't test how Sylpheed
runs on Linux, but as I saw who started the thread desperate... I
tried to bring some light or possible path to fix.

Regards.

I used Shift+Return to open an already sent message in a separate

There is an option Ctrl+Alt+n that seems to do the same thing, but
requires both hands instead of the past simple two-fingers press.

I never used either, but the latter shows in the shortcuts:

Afterthought: I should add that some  of those listed don't work
here, starting with "a." (Win32)

To me restarting with no or an empty ./sylpheed is the thing I definitly don't
want to do. 

I thought I tried to edit the folderlist.xml maybe I did it wrong but this
time it worked :)
Just adding "Mail/" to the path property like path="Mail/<your Mailbox>" and
everything looks like as it should look. 
I ran "Rebuild folder tree" after that maybe I didn't need to but.....

Thanks again for looking into that. 
Anyway it would be really nice if one can rerun the wizzard from the first 
start that asks where the mailboxes are.

the Mailboxes are located, it's still about "Proper migration" between
