Important behavioural change: +the option "idle" will now always result in *some* form of idle. I think +I read somewhere that some servers will unilaterally send status updates +if you just hold the connection open, i.e. NOOPs would be unnecessary, +but that doesn't seem to be the case anywhere I've tried. In any case, +this patch copes with updates both as a response to the NOOPs and +unilaterally sent between them. It functions exactly like normal idling +(N.B. like normal idling, it is single-folder only), and hopefully +includes all the appropriate changes to the documentation. Enjoy. :-) + +<A HREF="http://cmb.is-a-geek.org/downloads/fetchmail-6.2.2+noopidle.diff.gz">http://cmb.is-a-geek.org/downloads/fetchmail-6.2.2+noopidle.diff.gz</A> + +-- +Chris Boyle - <A HREF="http://people.debian.org/~cmb/">http://people.debian.org/~cmb/</A> +GPG: B7D86E0F, MSN: <A HREF="mailto:shortcipher@hotmail.com">shortcipher@hotmail.com</A>, ICQ: 24151961, +AIM: kerneloops, Yahoo: kerneloops, IRC: cmb on freenode.net + +</PRE> +<!--endarticle--> + <HR> + <P><UL> + <!--threads--> + <LI> Previous message: <A HREF="007711.html">[fetchmail] Problem - truncated messages +</A></li> + <LI> Next message: <A HREF="007713.html">[fetchmail] Patch for IMAP idling where idling is unsupported +</A></li> + <LI> <B>Messages sorted by:</B> + <a href="date.html#7705">[ date ]</a> + <a href="thread.html#7705">[ thread ]</a> + <a href="subject.html#7705">[ subject ]</a> + <a href="author.html#7705">[ author ]</a> + </LI> + </UL> +</body></html> |
