Just add the name of the connection at the end of the command, eg:

cd \\\POP3-SMTP Connections\Yahoo

Thanks for reporting the bug - I'll try to fix them or to find a workaround...

As djk already said - it is not so easy but it is possible and sometimes really useful - for instance if there is no maiclient installed on your PC:

Copy the part with the attachment:

Code: Select all

Content-Type: application/x-zip-compressed; name="pack.zip" 
Content-Transfer-Encoding: base64 
Content-Description: pack.zip 
Content-Disposition: attachment; filename="pack.zip"

... 

AAB1bnRpdGxlZC5ibXBQSwUGAAAAAAEAAQA6AAAALx0AAAAA

in a newly created file and save it as "filename.b64" (the b64 extension stands for the encoding - your attachment was base64 encoded). Now you only need to double click on this file and TC will decode the file with its internal base64 decoder... That's it!

I extract attachments easierly with this simple procedure:

Place the target panel in a temp dir
Set the cursor on the .eml filename in the source panel
Command File, decode file (Mime, uue...) (I use it in Spanish: approximate translation).

Then, it gets me the attachments (with their correct extensions) in the target dir and some "mime000.txt" file with the plain texts.

First, thanks for your useful plugin.

I've mentioned this in another thread, but, in case you just follow this one, I repeat it here:

I've tried to use your plugin with GMail POP3 account without success, maybe for the authentication scheme.

Could you inform us if it should work or, else, would you consider the possibility of adapting it to GMail? (maybe when they stabilize their login procedure, that, for what other say, are changing too often)

Thanks and regards.

look at first page:
>Secure pop3/smtp is currently not supported. If I have the time then I will try to add it in one of the next versions..

Gmail supports "only" secure login. We have to wait for next version.

How is the new version coming along? Can we expect it soon?

The same question here %).

BTW Andrew, can you please at least post here history for v.1.3 - I'm really interested in HTTP proxy and TLS support, you know, Gmail...[/face]

[André Martin]

2white & 2Black Dog & the entire community...
The HTTP Proxy support is already done and I've also fixed a bunch of the known minor and major bugs...
Currently I'm trying to implement TLS/SSL support in order to increase security and privacy.
On July I'm going to travel to the States and work there for at least two months... therefore I won't release any beta before end of September.
The final can be expected definitely by end of this year because I don't want to let you wait another year!
Thanks for your patience!

2André Martin:

Thanks again for your plugin and I hope to see next version soon!.

I send you 2 requests for your consideration, which I beleive would be very usefull:

1.- I'd love to be able to define a multi POP3 folder, where I could group several of my previously defined current tipe folders and receive (headers and, if selected, operations (delete, download)) the mails of all the included folders. For uploading, it would be more convenient to use the individual POP3 folders. I, like most of us, have nowadays more than 5 mail boxes and it would be very useful.

2.- One thing that disturbs me (because I keep many mails in my servers, to be able to access them from several locations) is that the plugin refreshes the mail list on many operations. For some of those operations it doesn't seem necessary (ex: when unselecting items, when switching Tabs). For other operations (like after deletion of some headers) refreshing really is the correct secure thing to do to avoid errors; but I'd very much prefer to get an error if I try to download a previously deleted header that has not been taken out of the list than to have to wait for my header list to refresh each time I delete one. I'd rather manually refresh when I considered needed with Ctl-R (or the defined keyboard assigned to TC refreshing).

So, couldn't you leave as default the refreshing behaviour as it is now (for the "cautious" user), but offer to us, hurried up and "adventurous" users, the option to disable auto-refreshing? (I think this second request could be easier to implement than number 1 and, at least for me, it would be even more useful.

Thanks and regards.

Yes! I'd love to use my gMail account in Total Commander!
