Hi: I rebuilt my config from the rc8 example, and am using the new files included with rc8. A couple of issues have cropped up, but they may just be PICNIC (problem in chair, not in computer <g>).
My account options page seems to be missing some descriptions: http://207.158.46.202/hasty.PNG
The same occurs further down the page in the other option sections.
Another issue is search functionality. I'm using text-based storage, and in rc3 search never seemed to return any results. In rc7 I remember it working, but in rc8 it's not working again. I'm wondering if this is a character-set issue? Also it would be nice if there was a default folder selected when searching.
Lastly, there used to be a "go" button next to the folders dropdown at the upper left. If you are in your inbox, then click "options", you move to the options page, but in the folder list, "inbox" is still selected. If you want to go back to the inbox, the only way I could figure out is to select a different folder from the dropdown, then select "inbox" from the dropdown again.
Sorry if I'm just being dense.
The missing options appear to be ones added to the translation files since RC7. If you were still logged into Hastymail when you upgraded that could cause what you are seeing (translation strings are cached in the session at login). But that means the problem should go away if you logout then back in again. If not then it would seem that the hastymail2/lang/en_US.php file did not get updated when you upgraded Hastymail.
Searching has a config file setting called imap_search_charset. You will want to set this to either US-ASCII or leave the setting blank. The default value is utf-8 but some IMAP servers do not support searching with that character set. I am changing the default to blank for future releases.
I have gotten so used to using the folder tree for navigation instead of the dropdown that I forgot that without the button and the folder tree hidden you can't use the dropdown to refresh the current folder. The "go" button has been added back in SVN as of revision 1261.
You can download a tarball of the latest SVN from:

Thanks for the feedback,
Jason
Thanks Jason...logging out and back in solved the missing options...I'm using EIMS 3.3.9 on OS 10.4.11 Mac, so I'll check what char set should be supported for search.
My personal preference is to leave the folder list hidden, as all I ever use is the inbox and occasionally the trash (to empty it)...but I appreciate your restoring that button.
