@WildEnte said in Is Vivaldi mail right for my use case?:

@Durtro @yojimbo274064400 this is a very complicated way to say "labels are not case sensitive. If you want to name a label 'CamelCase', make sure not to name it 'camelcase' the first time, because it cant be fixed later."

Fair point; it was detailed to illustrate the irreversibly of that issue.

I do believe that with time Vivaldi will resolve this issue without having to rely on the server clearing deleted / unused labels ; likely in the same way that well established labels are currently handled by mapping user definable text to reference label, i.e. Important on client maps to label1 on IMAP server.

Hopefully being aware of such issues will allow @paaljoachim to make the best use of Vivaldi as it is today.

@omc We have no such force to influence dev team 😉

Just try everything and see over period of time what suits you.

That Roundcube version actually doesn't seem that old that it should be causing any problems like this. Rather this INBOX prefix seems like an IMAP setting in Roundcube and perhaps something to ask an admin about.

You can, in your Roundcube web client, go to Settings -> Folders and check if any of your folders have a Parent Folder but this looks more like a server generic setting where the root "namespace" cannot be accessed over IMAP.

BTW, can you create a folder (in Vivaldi) under the Inbox rather than the root?

As for the external accounts on your hotmail account - I believe they are simply exposed like that over IMAP and therefore Vivaldi will display them like this.

You could either remove them from the hotmail account or, in Vivaldi, right-click the root folder of each external account and select "unsubscribe" and mark "Remove messages from this device". That will tell the server to hide these accounts on the IMAP interface and thus Vivaldi (or other clients for that matter) will not see them.

Consider right clicking on unloaded image frame and select Open Image in New Tab from pop-up menu to confirm it is loadable.

The current IMAP and SMTP settings and instructions for Outlook addresses can be found here.

I cannot say for certain if the same servers are used for Hotmail and/or Live, as I was unable to locate specific support pages for these two.

@lavanyadeepak A bug fix pertaining to logging levels (VB-102850) is in Snapshot 3405.3.

The fix is not yet in Stable, but I have inquired as to whether the fix would also cover this error, preventing it from being displayed. or if this is something different.

You can also turn off the logging if you wish, by opening Settings, typing biscuit in the Search box and change Log Level to None.

@Society I would recommend removing the e-mail address in your original post, as what is there currently, is a valid domain (unless a Moderator would like to do it). It's to foil scrapers looking for e-mail addresses to harvest/spam.

'example.com' has been reserved for documentation purposes.

Thanks.

@yemre Another e-mail standard is that an incoming mail server is allowed up to five days to deliver an e-mail, before returning it as undelivered, so you should eventually receive notifications of the e-mail(s) being undelivered. Sometimes the notification is sent immediately, with others, it can take the full five days. It all depends on how the mail server is configured.

There are also instances where an undeliverable e-mail might not be returned to the sender. For example, if the receiving mail server is being spammed repeatedly by another, they could simply delete the e-mail(s) and not attempt delivery. They could also put a temporary block on the sending server, thus causing a delay in delivery.

If your messages were sent to vivaldi.net, I do not know how long it will take before delivery attempts time out. It would depend on how the sending mail server is configured.

i can't remember which one it was now but it was received from someone else. It may or may not have been part of a thread, i can't remember.

@hornetster GMail uses a super non standard way of flagging emails, by not doing it. Instead of archiving email like everyone else, GMail seems to treat emails as Archived or not depending on whether or not they are in the inbox folder or not. Check the all messages - received view if you find your email there. I ignore the Gmail folder structure.

@WildEnte I'm not using aliases, I have two separate accounts, and the second one I added keeps logging out.
For now I've moved on to the new frustration of the calendar. That's not working right either. I'm about to start searching for answers about what's going on there.
