Hey Luk, Tim, and others,
This is bug in the c-client IMAP core that sits inside UW IMAP. The bug
here seems to be, "When alpine notifies you that it has gone read-only, it
still allows you to make changes it will throw away." The appropriate
simple resolution seems to be, "Modify the alpine UI so that if it
notifies a user that it has gone read-only, don't accept changes."
In a few weeks, I will sit down with a friend and see if we can solve
this. This bug in alpine has existed since lenny.
However, right now, I notice a user filed
http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=551900 wondering where
alpine
I would like to ask you, Luk, if it would be okay to let alpine pass to
testing in this state. The problem isn't that it has new release-critical
bug, but that an old bug (as the package was released in lenny) has the
same release-critical bug.
What do you think, Luk? Can we let alpine pass to testing?
