Support IMAP accounts

Pablo I. Lalloni — Tue, 26 Jun 2012 18:37:07 -0000

How dificult is to add support for checking general IMAP accounts?

This could mean not only checking gmail through the imap interface but every other imap server around (including those that we are forced to use at work).

Honestly, checkgmail has the best UI of all email checkers I've tried... and I would like to use it for all email accounts... not just gmail.

Plus, I'm willing to collaborate, though my perl is quite rusty...

2 factor support

Anonymous — Wed, 25 Apr 2012 17:17:17 -0000

Does checkgmail support Google's 2 factor authentication and "Trusted Computer" login? Didn't see it in the screen shots. On such an account can it still get in to monitor email activity?

support for google apps

I don't use gmail per se, but have emails processed by GoogleApps, which has the same features as gmail (and some more). I believe that to add support for it it will be enough to allow "@" in username, and if present, assume googleapps user. I believe that from calendar perspective GoogleApps has the same ports&api as gmail. At least user interface on http and way of configurig remote callendars in thunderbird lightning is exactly the same.

Add .desktop file and icon to source package

Would it be possible to include a .desktop file and icon in the (upstream) package? I've included the example from the Arch package.

"Delete all" button

I'd like a button at the top of the interface that deletes all messages in inbox- or archives.

Delete marks as read option

I'd like an option for delete marks as read, similar to archive marks as read.

replace Gtk2::TrayIcon with Gtk2::StatusIcon

Matt Neilson — Fri, 10 Sep 2010 16:51:32 -0000

Gtk2::TrayIcon has been deprecated and replaced by Gtk2::StatusIcon. Moving from TrayIcon to StatusIcon would allow CheckGmail to better fit in with desktop themes (e.g., CheckGmail currently does not play well with transparent panels, displays window background color instead) .

Turkish Support

Great piece, best gmail checker I've yet to try, but please add Turkish support. I can happily help if you need any.

Ability to look at all unread e-mails

Rob Fortune — Sat, 26 Jun 2010 13:37:26 -0000

It would be good to have the option to search all unread e-mails as I "Archive" several of mine as I label them and a list of labels you want checked along with inbox instead of just all of them would be handy (i.e. I don't care about eBay Notification in general but I want to be notified of new Expert Exchange messages)

Exclude label option

Anonymous — Mon, 03 May 2010 16:33:00 -0000

I'd love to see an option to exclude certain labels. That way I could exclude certain emails from triggering the notification. Other than that, I absolutely LOVE it!! thank you!
