I fixed this for the next Zeta version. Volumes will be mounted before Tracker is started and that fix lots of similar problems.

In fact, the problem is the Query is started before Tracker at boot time and the desktop have not mounted the Mail volume... :-(
Any idea to resolve that :
for 1 to 100000 do ronron ?
wait for a specific message from Tracker
reload the query every x mins
new menu to reload it

Hi, MDR guys,
I will take the opportunity to again thank you for youn work.
I have been having an issue on my r5.0.3 system upon shutting down the system. Most of the time, the shutdown stalls on the mail daemon, with a debugger window coming up. I managed to bother to copy down the information from the debugger one day, and here it is:
loading symbols
segment violation occurred
ea0c95a8 read_fault
mail_daemon:sc
frame retaddr
fd001c00 80009912 _start + 0000006e
mail_daemon:
I don't really know much about what's going on, so I thought sharing this might help me out. Thanks.

It seems that the query used by deamon to count new mails got some problem in the case of mails saved on another volume than boot one.
I used for a while a new query in deskbarview.cp :
fNewMailQuery->SetTarget(this);
fNewMailQuery->SetVolume(&volume);
// fNewMailQuery->PushAttr(B_MAIL_ATTR_STATUS);
// fNewMailQuery->PushString("New");
// fNewMailQuery->PushOp(B_EQ);
// fNewMailQuery->PushAttr("BEOS:TYPE");
// fNewMailQuery->PushString("text/x-email");
// fNewMailQuery->PushOp(B_EQ);
// fNewMailQuery->PushAttr("BEOS:TYPE");
// fNewMailQuery->PushString("text/x-partial-email");
// fNewMailQuery->PushOp(B_EQ);
// fNewMailQuery->PushOp(B_OR);
// fNewMailQuery->PushOp(B_AND);
fNewMailQuery->SetPredicate("((MAIL:status==\"*[nN][eE][wW]*\")&&(BEOS:TYPE==\"text/x-email\"))");
fNewMailQuery->Fetch();
The Bquery uses a "formula" in place of attributes.

as there is a macro for each string, a create a patch to apply on MDR sources directory for adding a third language (french)... That's run well for me. I will post the patch+binaries as i will be happy with the translation. Of course, this patch can be edited to change the third language by any else... It's not simple as splocale or zeta locale kit but it could be a temporary solution.

The automatic retrieval frequency setting actually regulates how often MDR connects to the server to check mail, not how often it checks for it. IMAP is continually connected, so it receives new mail within a few seconds of its arrival on the server. In short, it's supposed to do that.

Is there any way to debug this further?
2) When I access the IMAP account later, using thunderbird from the same machine (or a different machine), folders that I had prevsiouly deleted off the server show back up. This doesn't happen until I try and access the account using MDR.

When you create that string the little star icon to the left of the string will turn yellow. If it stays gray then...um... something is wrong :) Try right clicking in the application field and selecting the SendMessage example and then backspace over the MIME string and message part and replace it with the right ones for MDR

Can anyone help? I wanted to use a SpicyKey combination to check for mail, and in their documentation they propose for the application column:
*SendMessage application/x-vnd.Be-POST 'mnow'
However, it doesn't work.I get an error message saying can't launch *SendMessage, no such application exists. So I tried:
*SendMessage application/x-vnd.Be-MAIL 'mnow'
and get the same error.
Then I tried:
/boot/beos/apps/Bemail 'mnow'
and it works, but it creates a new email page, instead of checking my mail.As does 'chkmail' What is the correct string?

Thanks for the reply. Seeing as how I am not a programmer by any means, I have no idea how to develop or add anything to programs, at least, not right now. I am a BeOS hobbyist. BeOS is something I play with when I need something to do, so to speak. I appreciate that you are busy, and will try to find the SourceForge page and add this suggestion to the feature list, as you suggested. Thanks again.

Maybe there is some way to set this up without having what I am about to request, still, I think this might make things easier for me and I don't mind using up more disk space.
So I am requesting for the Match Header filter, to have a "Copy to" option. I use IMAP, so when I move an e-mail message from my inbox to another folder on my BeOS, the e-mail gets erased from my e-mail server's bank, I suppose because I have the delete messages from server when deleted here option selected. I still want that option, still, I don't want to lose my e-mail from my server, just because I moved my e-mail from one folder to another. A copy to, rather than a "Move to" option for Match Header would do the trick for me. That way, I'd still have the e-mail in my server, which I want, and still be able to put some of my e-mails into folders on BeOS.

I have a funny feeling that's somewhere in your readme or documents now that you told me. Anyway, now I just got the idea of linking it to Beam, while still using MDR's imap capability and simplicity, now I can use Beam's mail browser from MDR's icon!! a bit slower to load up than the tracker, still not a bad idea I must say :P
Thanks again!

Clicking on the mailbox icon opens, by default, the folder /boot/home/mail/mailbox. If you symlink that to your INBOX folder, it will open your INBOX directory.

Ah, I see where the problem is. You were matching with "[Spam*" but the left sqaure bracket is a special character in regular expressions (encloses a list of letters). Use a back-slash before the bracket to make it work, "\[Spam*" instead.
For more details about how to set up a filter to automatically delete spam, see the high danger documentation, which is also online at:
http://members.rogers.com/agmsbeos/AGMSBayesianSpam.Documentation/index.html#HeadersOnly
P.S. With all that spam that includes passages of text from books and web sites, the full message evaluation is less effective. I'm trying out "headers only" mode now and it seems to work reasonably well. One of these days I should update the tokenizer with the techniques that SpamBayes has developed for parsing HTML and hiding invisible text...

turns out my expression is fine, it's just not matching anything in the header. What I'm trying to do us use AGM's excellent spamserver to find and mark spam emails, then automatically move them to the trash. I activated the spamserver and set it to "add Spam %" in front of subject. I added a second filter to match Subject against [Spam*. It appears that maybe the actual message header is not modified by Spamserver, so it never triggers a match.
If there's a way to move spam straight to the trash, I would appreciate any help!

It actually uses a modified regex parser that can also accept glob syntax. What this means is that you don't need to use .*, you can just use *. Thus, to match e-mail containing "SPAM", you'd match subject to *SPAM*. For more advanced expressions, read up on regular expression syntax.

I think it uses the full regular expression library (not just simple file name style patterns), called regex. So to match a single character, "." (a period) is used. To match any number of things, follow the pattern with an "*" asterix/star. So to find "Happy" you could look for "Ha.*y" which would find all things starting with "Ha" and having a "y" somewhere after that.
The "grep" command manual page has a description of the full regex language: http://www.FreeBSD.org/cgi/man.cgi?query=grep&sektion=1&apropos=0&manpath=FreeBSD+5.2-RELEASE+and+Ports

You edit the /boot/home/.profile file to have that line somewhere in it. Then start up a new Terminal (doesn't affect existing Terminal windows) and you should be able to type "unchain" and it will then run those commands, removing the MAIL:chain attribute from all e-mail which you have read or replied to (thus making checks for new mail start up faster).
If you want to see the aliases that are in effect, just type "alias" in a Terminal window. You should see the new unchain command there.

It crashed in "re_match_2_internal" which I think is the regular expression pattern matching library. Check that your "Match" filter isn't set up incorrectly (post the pattern matching expression here if you need help).
As for the alias setup in my .profile file for a command which will remove the MAIL:chain attributes from read mail so it doesn't take as long to start receiving mail, here's the single line command I have in the .profile to create the unchain command:
alias unchain='query -a "MAIL:chain>=0 && MAIL:status==Re*" >/tmp/UnChain ; cat /tmp/UnChain ; cat /tmp/UnChain | xargs rmattr MAIL:chain ; rm /tmp/UnChain'

I'm using POP, but I've got it set to delete mail from the server when deleted locally. I've just logged in to my webmail to find all the messages deleted! Ah well, I've got them all on my HDD anyway.
Your solution of deleting the attribute when the message is no longer on the server sounds like a good idea - it would then be MDR responsible for deleting the attribute too, which is obviously better than making BeMail do it.

There is when you are using protocols like IMAP. If you delete that attribute, MDR sees that it is no longer there, and correspondingly deletes the message from the server. Something that might be a good idea is deleting the attribute from messages on disk, but no longer on the server, in which case the presence on disk becomes irrelevant.

Thanks for the tip Alex, works really well.
Is there any need for the chain attribute for read or replied messages? If not, maybe BeMail could remove this attribute when you close a "New" message, at the same time as setting it to "Read".
