First, the good news is that I continue to successfully access my gmail account using OAUTH2 per my discussion with Albrecht in Authentication: OAuth2; Method selection (#40) · Issues · GNOME / balsa · GitLab.
However, I seem to have accumulated several new (?) issues:
(org.desktop.Balsa:5807): mailbox-CRITICAL **: 19:46:52.114: old-style IMAP mailbox mailbox-12 should have been converted to IMAP folder
(org.desktop.Balsa:5807): mailbox-CRITICAL **: 19:46:52.114: old-style IMAP mailbox mailbox-13 should have been converted to IMAP folder
These are my IMAP folders for two of my mail services. Are there instructions anywhere for doing this conversion, or do I just need to delete and recreate them?
– When I start Balsa, it displays the folders which were open when I last closed it - with one exception. There is one MailDir mailbox (named Balsa) which gets opened even if I closed it in my last session of Blasa. Also, I don’t see the type of mailbox listed on the Properties dialog. Is there some index not getting updated and saved properly?
– running Balsa and hitting Next Unread takes me to a mailbox where the most recent message is several month old, and has been read many times. If I close this folder and restart Balsa, Next Unread brings me to this message yet again. Is there some index not getting updated and saved?
– The web site is out of date - still showing 2.6.4 as the most recent release.
– README.md is out of date, showing copyright only up to 2020.
– The last time I compiled Balsa (end of April) there was some message shown (not sure if it was at compile time or just the first time I ran it) about configuration files moving from ~/.balsa to ~/.config and ~/.local. I cannot find this message, and I’d like to review it, especially what it says about eventually deleting the stuff left under ~/.balsa.
Thanks for any hints of pointer for any of these.
