Re: [Tracker] Preview patch for Modest support in tracker



Hi there,

After this version of the patch IMAP, Maildir and POP accounts of
tinymail based E-mail clients like Modest should start getting indexed
correctly.

I also disabled the "find_attachment" function for the Modest support,
as on most devices you don't want to decode+write thousands of
attachments in /tmp (for example on the Nokia devices, /tmp is afaik a
memdisk -> not a good idea to write +15M sized attachments over there).

But this one is actually working. Just copy $HOME/.modest from your
Nokia N800/N810 device to your desktop's $HOME, and run the patched
trackerd to test this.

Right now it assumes existence of a bin called modest-open, which is not
yet build by the current Modest package. There's a test application in
Modest's source code that already does what this modest-open will do.

I noticed that if the mail is locally downloaded, that its attachments
are stored in /tmp. On a Nokia device this wont be a good idea,
since /tmp is afaik a memdisk and attachments can be quite big. But then
again, this patch is a work in progress.
