can't see if an email was fwd'd
« on: November 05, 2014, 09:39:46 pm »
I've installed AM few weeks ago after using for a long time K9 which wasn't too bad. AM looks better, I use it for business, note 3 with 4 imap accounts. My issue is that I can't see if an email was forwarded or not. In order to check that I have to go to sent items folder and check as I reply and fwd lots of emails everyday. I can see the reply sign on emails but the Fwd sign. Is there any way I can get that please?

I Can see that in smart folder only, I need to see it in inbox folder the same I see the reply sign.
Anyway I can have both signs, reply and fwd on an email in inbox if I reply and forward it?

$Forwarded flag is an optional part of the IMAP spec, and some IMAP servers don't declare it as supported.

K9 may be trying to set it anyway -- without checking server capabilities -- but I've seen a server that would crash if you tried to do that.

That being said, please try last night's development builds -- 1.5.0.25.4 or 1.5.1-25.4-dev6.1 -- as I added a fix for some IMAP servers.

The Fwd arrow Paris geek has in the last screenshot I see it for a second while the email is being fwd'd. After that, it disappears. The 4 imap servers I'm using are, go daddy's secureserver, gmail, telus and hotmail. None of these inboxes don't show that. I don't think it's something to do with the server as they're 4 different servers. It's really important to see that in my inbox as I reply back to one person and fwd the same email to somebody else, and it's important to me to see which email is not fwd'd as I'm receiving about 100 emails everyday. Thanks.

I did install latest dev build last night, no changes. Will send a debug log file later on. Ty.

$Forwarded is an optional part of the IMAP spec.

Some servers / services don't support it: GoDaddy, Hotmail, Rambler.ru (here in Russia), maybe others.

The fix was for fresh versions of Dovecot.

For the others mentioned above, I implemented a change to use "replied" if "forwarded" is not available -- but it's not been posted yet. Soon.
