First time using Mail in Vivaldi - observations
-
(This post is a combination of praise / potential bug report / maybe feature request. Would be good to get feedback.)
Hi! Back in the days of Opera12 I used the M2 email/RSS in it extensively but then switched to Thunderbird. However, TB became unbearably glitchy, so I decided to try Vivaldi.
Scope was: migrate the email and RSS to Vivaldi Mail.Now, for my primary email accounts, the creation went silky smooth. I was very impressed with the connection procedure. Well done team!
However, I was not able to migrate some secondary accounts, nor RSS.
- Is there any way to force the OAuth on account? Specifically on SMTP. I found the way to do it for IMAP server (well just set OAUTH host - did not throw an error) but not SMTP. Thing is, I have the token cached in TB, but provider now requires an app password, for which they require the phone connection which I do not want to do. If I could force Vivaldi to assume OAUTH and copy the token from TB that's be fine.
- I already saw several times the message "Finished indexing for account <my primary huge account>" but I still have persistent 2-3 cores at 100%. Is there any way to track it?
- Am I missing something or is there no way to have rules over RSS? That's a major issue to me.
- Also am I missing something or is the "actions" section in filters missing the basic "move to folder"? Yes I recreated what I need, mostly, in web UI, but damn.

1 You can't import the token from thunderbird but Oauth is supported.
Unsure why oauth is not working for SMTP as is supposed to wrap all flux. Mention the providers.2 omissis. Unsure how help.
3/4 Correct.

Well, I never got the "use oauth" checkbox.
Anyway, thank you for response. It appears Vivaldi mail is not there yet. Will try in another 5 years.
