Vivaldi Mail 1.0: A powerful email client built right into your browser.

luetage

@Nekomajin In the meantime you could use the mail panel/page instead of the feeds panel. Simply hide all entries in the panel except for the feeds.

@luetage
That's not a solution, nor even a workaround. I use the feeds panel, but it's highly inconvenient to open the panel every time I want to switch to a new source. And no, I won't turn off the floating panel auto-close feature. And this whole thing doesn't even matter, because there are just too many unnecessary UI elements related to mail.

I know you want to help, but this issue can't be solved with workarounds.

@Mithaldu Grmmpffff.... And where is your "Big Thanks" to me? I alerted the V-Team internally.

True, most of thanks to you. And to be honest, when i saw i was talking to a fellow Perler i thought the matter was in good hands.

"Mail client startup failed: Error: TypeError....."
Tried 1 account on Debian and another account on Win 10.
Both with same error. The acount data is in there though when viewed under the main setup, but no go.
An existing account on snapshot 5.3.2679.50 is still working ...

added Fixed:
from the troubleshooting page -

"Solution: Re-index your db
Both of these above errors (error #1 and #2) can be fixed by deleting the database so that the message headers are re-fetched and everything re-indexed
(Warning: You will lose POP3 messages or any message that has already been deleted from the server, along with local drafts and outbox messages)"

"Open your profile directory (You can find the location of the profile directory by going to vivaldi:about and see Profile Path)
Close Vivaldi
Find folder “Default/Storage/ext/mpognobbkildjkofajifpdfhcoklimli/def/IndexedDB” and delete it .
Open Vivaldi
Once you open Vivaldi again, it will start fetching all the mails again (Note: it won’t need to re-download the content since that’s still stored under your Profile Path/Default/Mail folder)
"
After deleting IndexedDB, started Vivaldi and it came right up.

@Nekomajin I wrote “in the meantime”… Many of us use workarounds or modifications to adapt the browser to our needs. You will only become more impatient over time, waiting for the feature

@Mithaldu Ah, ok, that are really warm and nice words for a ol' Perl programming Ma'am

@luetage
In the meantime I use the solution I've been using for a year.

I have never used an email client in my entire life.
This easy to setup.?.
It is indeed making my whiskers twitch and i may have a gander.

@Priest72
Hi, it depends on you mail provider, in most cases you have to type email address and password and it automatically connect to the mail server.

@alexjak: Vivaldi does not delete your emails on Gmail. Like any other mail client, it downloads a local copy, and allows you to manage the emails in it's interface - which is then synced to the server. This is standard IMAP funcionality. As for feeds, those are indeed not synced, because there is no central online database (like your mail server) that the client accesses.

@Team_Vivaldi Gratz for 1.0 !

Though there's several other [older] threads on it, nobody in this thread has mentioned the ongoing ~~crapiness~~ ahem sub-optimal performance of the OPML Import into V of external extant Feeds. Whilst per my testing V Feed module seems competent when the user creates an individual new feed manually, it's simply just lousy rotten awful when you try to import said external file.

My carefully curated, alphabetised sequence of myriad feeds in my FF-Nightly-Feedbro-exported OPML file, end up a totally random disorganised mess in V. Similarly, even first editing said file in a text editor & adding group prefixes to each feed name [to substitute for V's absence of both manual rearranging, & channel grouping], gets mulched up by V's importer... it literally ignores/omits numerous of the prefixes, whilst including some of them, but in any event the final result remains random non-alphabetised mess.

Tbh, given all the public promotional hullabaloo V is making about this public release, i'm pretty amazed this longstanding bug was not solved first. After all, is it not likely that many of the peeps around the world who will only now become exposed to trying Feeds in the new Stable, are going to have their own existing nicely-setup Feeds collection, which they'll be keen to import to V?

Awesome...I'm going to try these features out... I can see one thing I wiould like already, down the road...folder to groups newsfeeds... bit of an RSS junky...I need to separate the different feeds by subject other wise I'll end up with a feed list a mile long! I'm looking forward to trying out the mail as well! Thanks for all the hard work!
