Hi Liam !

¡Hola!

Probably Sylpheed does not use libetpan for IMAP, and that is a life saver :)

I guess not. I had not been using Claws for long, but I must say, I did find it quite complex to configure. Sylpheed was much easier, apart from getting SMTP STARTTLS working. The SSL settings are spread across 3 or 4 different tabs in a complex dialog, which is not ideal. But I rather like it. My only remaining problem is that it regularly freezes up on me. It always comes back, but you never know how long. It *badly* needs a progress dialog but it doesn't seem to have one I can find.

It's really nice to know that Sylpheed and Claws remain quite compatible after all these years.

Indeed so. I sort of would like to see them recombine, but they are going in different directions now. Sylpheed is quite stripped-back and simple, whereas Claws has rather more options than I actually wanted or needed -- and like KDE, often not the ones I particularly wanted.

Thanks for the feedback !

Dear all

I experienced that after updating Tumbleweed a week ago, the package claws-mail won't allow IMAP connections to gmail accounts, giving an error of "SSL/TLS handshake failed".

It seems to be related to the libetpan-devel package, that is used to compile the etpan components on Claws.

I could get it working by:

- Uninstalling the libetpan-devel package - Downloading, compiling and installing the latest libetpan-master - Compiling Claws against the new libs

PS: At the beginning I thought it was related to openssl-devel, so I replaced it by libressl-devel, but after some tests it does not seem to be the case.

libetpan was already patched for new openssl version, but remained on version 1.6

The nice thing in OBS is that it is mostly quicker to branch and fix than writing a bug report. You may try https://build.opensuse.org/package/binaries/home:DocB:branches:server:mail/l... and give feedback if it works

Thanks ! That sounds reasonable :) Actually libetpan compiles fine in both versions. So we also have to compile claws-mail with the latest and see the behaviour.

That can be achieved by branching claws into the same directory (and welcome to the hell of dependencies - in this case only one packet). It then builds against the local libetpan. So you could test it from there as well

As the SR for libetpan was already accepted to server:mail I would expect it to be in Factory/Tumbleweed soon.

Yeah, for some reason it's not working well with the latest libetpan-devel / claws-mail-devel packages from OpenSUSE either. I compile claws against it and them and there are issues connecting to the imap server. I've gotten working using the latest src (libetpan-master), building it and then compiling and installing claws. Let's wait for the upcoming claws package for Tumbleweed and I'll let you know.
