After some e-mail discussion, we agreed that I will take care of this bug, and of account-polld in general. Niklas did some great work on it to support Dekko and IMAP accounts, but as Dan wrote in comment 18, with POP3 support coming to Dekko it becomes apparent that we cannot keep replicating every protocol implementation in account-polld. So, the long term solution is to have account-polld support out-of-process plugins, which can be written in any language and which can possibly reuse some of the application code. I'll write more on that later, to the mailing list.
As for the immediate fix, I'll add support for Dekko's GMail accounts only (because they use OAuth, and don't require major changes in account-polld). For notifications for generic IMAP and POP3 accounts we'll have to wait, unfortunately. ** Changed in: account-polld (Ubuntu) Assignee: Niklas Wenzel (nikwen) => Alberto Mardegan (mardy) -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Touch seeded packages, which is subscribed to account-plugins in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1421923 Title: No notifications for new mails Status in Online Accounts: Account plugins: New Status in Canonical System Image: In Progress Status in Dekko: In Progress Status in account-plugins package in Ubuntu: In Progress Status in account-polld package in Ubuntu: In Progress Bug description: Hi! In the BQ E4.5 Ubuntu Edition, I'm not getting notificactions for new mails. Testing (by example) 1. Kill Dekko. 2. Send you an email. 3. Open Dekko. 4. Change quickly to another app before Dekko starts. 5. Bug: No notification 6. Go to Dekko: You'll see your new mail. FYI as improvement, for me, in Dekko is not clear if Dekko checks the mail after X minutes or is a push notification. Thanks in advance!
