Great that You're continuing project.
I've found one a little annoying bug in Beam:
When i get mail with some file attached, sometimes it's not recognized correctly, an whole file is showed as text (well not readable text, because it's binary ;) in mail. I think it may be because file name contained "+" char. I opened the same mail with BeMail and there it was correctly recognized as attached file.

For DANO I don't know but it works under PhOS so it works with BONE anyhow.
If it doesn't work for it may be so for another reason
I agree with the fact that the option check for mail every x minutes doesn't work either for me

When i resize "jobs" window, in time one of jobs gets finished, window still has the same height, after job "view" is deatached. You have to resize window like a maniac to check it (i've got this unintentionally, than i tried to get it once more ;).

3148: Well, it does not work at all under BONE, but it should run under R5, as long as you are using a dialup internet connection (PPP).
If not, you'd have to deactivate the prefs-option 'Automatically check for mails only if PPP is up' (under Prefs -> Receiving Mail), but unfortunately, that option can not be deactivated in Beam 0.912 >:o( (bug is fixed for 0.913).
BigZaphod: You are right, thanks for spotting this bug. The problem is actually that Beam gets the NodeMonitor-message before the mail-files are completely written. Some are missing one or more attributes when Beam tries to read them, this results in empty subjects, incorrect Icons, etc.
I will try to change the node-monitor for Beam 0.913 so that these problems won't occur anymore.
cheers,
Oliver

Is it just me or does the "check mail every x minutes" not work? I set it to 5 minutes and it never checks for new mail. I manually check and get lots of mail.

Ok, I was doing something truely evil, but I'll save that until later... Anyway, I got a message box that popped up at said:
Exception at /boot/home/Sources/beam/BmMailFolderList.cpp:141
Couldn't get stat for entry.
Error: No such file or directory.
Now... Here's what I was doing at the time.. (and believe me, it is evil).
Just to see how well Beam performed under pressure I was duplicating a bunch of emails. So, with Beam open, I entered my home/mail/in dir and started doing sequences of "Select All" and "Duplicate." Eventually I had something like 6 or 7 duplicates going on at once resulting in a few thousand files. Yes, nasty. Anyway, Beam was open and was tracking the folder nicely at first. However, I quickly noted that some of the messages in Beam's inbox window were no longer getting the mail icon or having the subject/from info filled in. Instead they were getting that sort of "blank" icon with the blue sheets of paper (or whatever) asnd had empty subject/from info. The message itself seemed to be there just fine, and clicking on it would bring it up in Beam without problem.
So anyway, I ignored this for a bit and then left it duplicate. Suddenly Beam died with the above exception. So, I guessed it might be some kind of threading issue or locking or something like that and figured I'd fire off a bug report.
You can see the screenshot here (along with a nice view of all the file copying I had going on :-): http://sean.fifthace.com/broke_beam.jpg
Note: Single processor running R5.0.3.

It would be really cool if, when a message is deleted, it is marked as read. That way it won't keep the mailbox replicant on the deskbar activated when all the regular messages have been seen already.
Great app, though! Simple and it works.

I really like Beam - it's fast, stable, and friendly, and it's displaced Scooby as my email program of choice for BeOS. I'm eager to see what's in store for Beam in the future. Thanks for a great program.

It just lack some essential features like filtering otherwise, it's nice, fast, efficient, GPL, supported by his dev........Waiting for the essential features with impatience. !!

This will make Beam (optionally) behave more like a client of services instead of a provider of one. The whole BeOS modularity thing is good, but only when apps don't replicate the built in functionality or become incompatible with it. Mail-It was very non-BeOS-like for a while, if I recall.
Once MDR gets to a stable release (complete, not beta or RC), I intend to update to it. Still, I like Beam better than BeMail. By far. Plus, Beam is the kind of app my mom needs...
Thanks for your hard work and for listening to the input of your users. And, of course, thanks for Beam!

BEAM is a great start, but we have seen too many of them already. I really hope this emailer is becoming the No.1 BeOS client, and if Oliver puts in some of my filtering and reminder functions (which should be easy to do), it will probably surpass any other current BeOS email client in terms of usability.
Something I'd also like to see is the ability to "create and expand", ie "kr" + Ctrl-E results in "Kind regards, ...."
All in all, super work, Oliver, and keep it coming!

Hello everyone,
I will implement MDR-support in Beam, since so many people aks for it.
My current idea is to make Beam import (and perhaps export) the MDR-accounts upon request and to additionally allow the user to switch transport completely over to MDR (then incoming and/or outgoing traffic will be handled by MDR and Beam will just be used to compose/browse mails).
I hope that does it.
To Shard: thanks for pointing out the bug, it will be fixed in the next version.

...have that option. for example button "import MDR settings" and "export MDR settings". That way everyone will be happy (i don't use mail_daemon).
Another thing is that it would be kewl if it could read ppl files, as one of the sources (maybe option "use ppl files too"?) of address book.
THX again for Beam :) It's great!

i really like Beam, i would that it used MDR's settings.. and maybe even replacing BeMail as the default mail program (to create/manage mail)

This is a second vote for using the MDR preferences for BEAM, so I don't have to set everything up in multiple places.

Beam is an excellent email program, and it's great to see one that is under active development again (now that Postmaster and Scooby seem to be abandoned). But I hate how every new mail client tries to "reinvent the wheel".
Even if Beam wanted to have their own code for sending and recieving mail, I wish it would still use (read and write) the prefrences from the Mail Daemon Replacement. Untill it does this I will stick with BeMail for composing and sending mail.

Thanks for trying Beam.
I have just checked and indeed Beam is completely useless on Dano, since it crashes whenever it uses the UnlockBuffer()-method of the BString class (which it does a lot).
Why this leads to a crash in Dano, I don't know. It works alright in R5.
I will look into the issue a little later on and try to work things out, but I currently can't say if I can work it out...
regards, Oliver

I've been using this for about 4-5 days and I wanted to let you know that it's great. Fast, stable, easy to use and does almost everything I want. Of course, I'm using 5.03.

Yeah, the GUI seems very nice aswell as the functions but it crashes all the time on my machine, nearly everytime i've try to do something usefull in the client like add accounts and that sort of things, it could be dano that screws up Beam tough, ;( and i don't want to use BeOS 5.0.3 becouse i can't get my USB devices to work in that version and that sucks ;(
