Because of the way the configuration works, I never designed it to save x/y settings. Didn't want to have to parse out the x/y positioning to re-write it every time Liam got moved around. Trade-off of usability for ease of maintenance for me If I change things to bbmail style (2 configuration files) then it would be possible to easily save settings, I'll think about that.


Um. not sure what you mean. It is designed to be used in the slit, but you have to load it using BBSlit on BBlean, xoblite should automagically put it in the slit every load (not sure if you can even tell it not to). There is no toggle between slit and no slit, load it one way and be happy

2.2.0 RELEASE

I loaded and it was not in the slit, I forgot the slit menu to put it in the slit. That's all.
Btw, it's working.

It works great! all the features works great and the ini file can goes in liam.dll directory

Thanks!

great work!

This will likely be the last feature enhancement release of Liam, all future releases will focus on extending the protocol support, especially in the SSL area.

2.2.2 Release




Basicly you should be able to use Liam by putting just the dll in your BBMail plugin directory and it will use BBMail's settings. Liam doesn't support all of BBMail's settings (snapto f.e.) and simplifies others (alpha is either off with a setting of 255 or on, there is no controlling variable.)

The only setting it will write at runtime is it's x/y positioning. All other settings require a reconfigure to reload/edit.

Make sure any passwords that have spaces in them are enclosed in quotations! Because of the "Can set root folder for IMAP" ability, passwords are no longer the last thing on the mailbox configuration.

In bbmail.rc I found and set this:
bbmail.height: 32
bbmail.width: 32

but size of a box don't change. (bbClean, in bbInterface slit)

I would be also very happy if border of box could be made invisible.

You are correct. I changed a tiny piece of the settings code right before I released and broke everything.. So what did I learn? Don't do that



so much for the no new features things . It was pretty painless, but the code really needs an overhaul. I'm sure BBMail is much better written (knowing qwilk.) And I'm only really updating because I haven't heard from him lately. I'll probably disappear again when he comes around and updates BBMail..

Thank you for updates but in this version i have problem with bbInterface (iTunes mod) slit. I load plugin into bbinterface frame (upper left corner, http://img182.imageshack.us/my.php?imag ... aceqe5.png) then run a fullscreen game (HMM3) and after i exit from it, upper frame disappears (http://img162.imageshack.us/my.php?imag ... 656ef4.jpg), BlackBox hangs. After 10 minutes (i set interval to 15 minutes, so i think there's no coincidence) everything magically unhangs and looks like on firs screenshot.

Turn on logging and see if you see a bunch of lines that look like:


If so what kind of accounts do you have setup? POP3 or IMAP? Are you using SSL or TLS? What's your timeout setting?

That line happens inside of the shell [I was dumb and used sleep() ] so it locks up everything waiting to free the mail servers. I have an idea on how to fix that, so I'll see what I can do.

I use bbClean and i don't see any file produced by this option…

Two gmail accounts (one of them is attached to other domain) checked by IMAPS (IMAPT didn't work for me), timeot is 3, (#bbmail.timeout: 3)


Would be grateful

Dang it.. that's because bbLean 1.16 on got rid of the Log() api, so logging doesn't work on them.. *grumble*

I couldn't help but notice that Zygzak has his toolbar disabled. Although there is no logging in bbLean 1.16, messages are sent to the toolbar window label. That's one of the reasons I use a toolbar where, from what I see of ss on boxshots.org, many people just cast it aside as useless.

Perhaps Zygzak should try enabling his toolbar and watch for the messages that get displayed.

If by toolbar you understand this - session.screen0.toolbar.enabled: true, I dont't see there any messages from Liam, especially when all blackbox freeze. I tried also bbStatus.

That is what I meant...

Oh well, it was a shot ** shrugs **

Shoot was probably good;) I think that something is with my setup/bbClean, because also bbOsd don't show any messages.

If BBClean uses the same code that's in BBLean 1.16, Log() does absolutely nothing, no toolbar display, nothing. *shrug* I'm pretty sure that's what happening is as follows:

Full screen mode game causes BB_RECONFIGURE by the shell
Liam locks waiting for the mail check thread to terminate before it removes/adds the account information
There's some kind of timeout talking to one of your mail hosts (specifically in either a connect() or an SSL function as those don't currently respect the timeout set by the user.)

I'm working on a new version that actually isn't threaded and is completely non-blocking, so there should never be interface timeouts like that. My sincere apologies that it's not as pretty as it could be Never version is forth coming, but it'll probably be a couple weeks as I've really only got weekends to work on it.
