OK, the report is confirmed, we have to wait.

Cheers, mib

I may be misremembering part of this. I've used Yahoo as one of my mail handlers since, well, for over 25 years (confirmed that with Yahoo) and I was one of the first (thousand) to 'come on board'. Initially, as I remember, there was no 'remote mail' it was all on line. Then various mail readers (lost the correct word) came along and Yahoo and Hotmail were both able to be accessed remotely.
Shortly thereafter, and I'm guessing 2005, Yahoo came out with Yahoo Mail+ as a subscription service to allow access by POP3 and I'm not sure about IMAP. Yahoo Mail+ still exists as a subscription but serves different and additional services (spam trapping, alternative addresses, etc)

@artpoetryfiction
Hm, I just tell you how it is, POP3 has not high priority in general for the mail client.
That's just my impression, I am not involved in development plans of the Vivaldi team.

@kendysk So, it is not possible to re-order Vivaldi Mail email accounts at this time. It does not matter in what order you add them. They are shown in order of server/user alphabetically no matter what.

Sorry you wasted so much time an effort trying to do something that Vivaldi can't do - and possibly lost data in the process...

After registering my first [imap] email adress in Vivaldi Mail, two other 'accounts' appeared having email adresses I own but had NOT registered. I can not edit or delete these 'accounts', they appear under the heading 'All Accounts' but do not feature in the accounts list in mail settings.

Further to this post: having had no response to this problem I simply re-installed Vivaldi and re registered the same first account. Problem solved so mail working AOK [maybe the problem came about because I tried to register a mail account [a number of times] without success, BEFORE I hade made a Vivaldi account.

Anyway, my main aim in trying out Vivaldi mail was to be able to have the same email client on my desktop AND [android] smartphone. Unfortunately the Vivaldi smartphone app does not have the mail option so I have now removed my email account and turned off mail, maybe in the future if Vivaldi creates mail for the mobile app. The desktop mail looked really promising, a pity.

@janrif yeah, the direct command doesn't always work, but don't use archive too much to do a report. Do it if you will.

Thanx, i did disable all extensions, also don't use any firewall, vpn and any other stuff.

it's a pretty new issues and being tryong to troubleshoot following yojimbo274064400 advice.

How can I send attachments as attachments not as pictures on the body text of the email. I don't want my attachment to appear on the body text of the email.
Thank you for any feedback.

@Macoustra

Right for the moment

The previous information was not entirely correct. From the 4 samples case I have 1 still does not show the attachments, at least in the windows snapshot. Have to confirm in linux.

P.S. Linux exhibits the same problem. As such I still have a mail message with 2 images not shown as attachments but visible in the raw message:

--00000000000066bcde06053af184
Content-Type: image/png; name="image001.png"
Content-Disposition: inline; filename="image001.png"
Content-Transfer-Encoding: base64
Content-ID: <f53f8dde0d7d96fd_0.1>
X-Attachment-Id: f53f8dde0d7d96fd_0.1

base64 code

@FreeRaider I don't think it exists.
@WildEnte In Outlook is mostly a temporary flag. I use it sometimes at work. I think in M3 world is more suitable as a task.

Thank you @Pesala . I have shared the same here.

würde mich auch interessieren, z.B. will ich mit weisser Schriftfarbe auf dunklem Hintergrund einen Text einfügen, sende ich geschwärzten Balken statt Text.

@nuube
Hi, there is no solution at moment but the bug VB-99116 was fixed 28/Sep/23.
The next Vivaldi upgrade is around the corner, I guess this will fix it.

Cheers, mib

@Hadden89 Thank you for this. Unchecking that option in the Mail Settings resolved the issue. Now when I click on email links it is opening my Outlook by default, which is what I wanted.

@DragonOfLuck

Ok, two things...
Can you check the console for errors when adding an account?

And just for testing purposes can you set up a small mail account in another profile to see if it works?

The space concern is certainly valid, although also an old laptop will likely sport a couple of GB of free disk space. Note that once an email is synced, it doesn't get synced again, so all the already synced emails really doen't matter in terms of internet connection speed, and apart from loading the email database on startup there is also no speed impact once Vivaldi is running.

I don't recall other people requesting a limited sync range for emails yet, so I doubt they will implement that any time soon.... hope this is not too critical for you.

As for the 'full inbox' topic, I suggest you read your email in Unread, and mark emails you are done with as read (hit the k key to mark an email as read). This will make your inbox not full, and if you do need to see previously received emails, you will find them in Received.

Mail server and Vivaldi mail client on Win10 work well together, and then they don't.

I have filed two bug reports on this problem. Is this a dovecot-Vivaldi issue? Other ideas to check? Vivaldi is on auto update, so is Win10.

Server is a dovecot at GlowHost.

Server says, report by GlowHost tech:

Oct 7 10:17:18 quebec dovecot: imap-login: Disconnected: Connection closed (auth failed, 1 attempts in 2 secs): user=[email protected], method=PLAIN, rip=24.60.208.199, lip=154.12.166.83, TLS: Connection closed, session=<Ci+lAyEH1/YYPNDH>

Logs shows an auth failure again from the IP for the email address [email protected] . IP 154.12.166.83 listed in the log is our server IP address.

Vivaldi server log says:

12:37:19.844 error [Mail - [email protected]] IMAP connection encountered an error! Error: Socket timed out!
12:37:19.844 error [Mail - [email protected]] IMAP connection encountered an error! Error: Socket timed out!

12:37:19.845 error [Mail - [email protected]] IMAP connection encountered an error! Error: Socket timed out!
12:37:32.479 error [Mail - [email protected]] Timeout connecting to server

emails verify and work, then fail
removed old, unused mail clients
removed Webroot, antivirus
MS virus remains

@mib3berlin thank you, and I just upvoted that feature request!
