Thanks. As it stands, my Outlook account on Vivaldi is IMAP. I assumed that I would simply need to create a second POP account and could then delete the IMAP.
I aim to try the suggested settings later today and thanks for the help, I do appreciate it.
@schreck
Hi, you can enable IMAP logging in the mail settings and open "Show Logs" from the mail icon in the status bar.
No idea if this give some hints what happen.
Cheers, mib
@mottenmouse that's what I tried to do and failed. So if you can describe how you managed to do this it might serve as a workaround for some - see @DF55's original post.
@vShvedPro I don't think (but really don't know) if that is possible. The web interface looks nice but is comparatively slow. To manage large amounts of emails in several accounts a local client is always preferable
Make sure you have up to date backups of your emails then consider the following method to restore the missing messages to your IMAP account on the server:
open your operating system's file manager, locate the backup made of your Vivaldi's Mail storage location and then search it for files with an extension of .eml
If iinet's webmail client supports drag and drop then continue to step 4 otherwise download and install Thunderbird or another email client that supports import of eml files; this is required because Vivaldi does not currently provide this functionality
create a new account to access your iinet account via IMAP in Thunderbird
sign into webmail or open Thunderbird
position windows such that webmail / Thunderbird and file manager are visible at same time
in file manager select a small group of *.eml files, then drag and drop to folder in webmail / Thunderbird
confirm in Vivaldi email client that messages appear as expected
repeat the process of dragging and dropping in small batches of .eml until all messages are imported
If instructions are unclear or instructions specific for operating system are required then post back here.
@yojimbo274064400 yep. Kinda bad when receiving low volumes of e-mails since a new message can become unnoticed until a new one arrives depending on which view is selected on the background mail tab. For me at least it is not only with the unread view since it also affects labels.
Another one for me is the spam folder. Many times when selecting the view it auto selects new received spam messages and that is bad. I keep my spam folder clean so there is no past message that should be selected.
I got the same/related issue using iCloud.
07:01:00.205 error [Mail - anonymous@icloud.com] IMAP connection encountered an error! Error: Unexpected end of input at position 498
@frankp said in Change mailbox layout:
I would like to keep the sidebar on the right, and have the Mail panel open on the far left
I think this fits into the existing feature wish of having two panels, one left and one on the right. Vote it up 🙂

@newscpq I am sorry, I don't understand your advice. Can you please clarify the following:
What does Vivaldi Webmail have to do with my problem described in this thread?
Why would I need to check for error 554? What does it mean if I receive the error? What does it mean if I don't?
Hi, to clarify in case it makes a difference, it was Vivaldi in Linux Mint Cinnamon 20.3 that the connection to gMail failed. Though I no longer use Windows, but kept it for the time being, so I switched to Windows to test Vivaldi where I am posting this. Here it works as you can tell. I will purge and install it again in Linux.
The Linux version was broken due to apt issues.
