[mew-int 2996] removing "unread" mark on server for messages as read in Mew


Hi All - 

I am using Mew with an IMAP server (Microsoft Exchange).  Overall, Mew
works great.

However, when I read messages in Mew/Emacs, they are always marked as
unread on the server.  (They always are marked read in Mew, just not on
the server.)

Is there a way to command the server to remove the "unread" mark on the
server whenever the messages are downloaded into Mew?  I tried "C-u Z",
"Z", and "x", and none of them remove the server's "unread" marks.

According to Sec. 4.8 of the manual
http://www.mew.org/en/info/release/mew_4.html#unread-mark

the unread mark described as follows:
‘U’    Whether a message is read or not. This IMAP flag is \Seen. This is
    usually valid in %inbox only.

Is there any way to issue this "\Seen" flag to the server, so that
messages I have already read no longer have the "unread" mark on the
server?

Attached is my current .mew.el file.

I tried with and without the (setq mew-use-unread-mark t) command at the
end of the .mew.el file.  Unfortunately, in either case when I read the
messages in Mew, they are still marked as "unread" on the server.

[mew-int 2997] Spam: message can trigger exception

Hi,

When using "lh" and "ls" with spamassasin, Mew was throwing an 
exception instead of displaying the message.  This is because of the 
following warning outputted by the script:

defined(%hash) is deprecated at 
/usr/share/perl5/Mail/SpamAssassin/Dns.pm line 757.

which contains "%".  A trivial fix is attached.

Best,
C.

[mew-int 2998] Saving to an existing file

Hi,

When saving a message or an attachment to an already existing file 
(and answering "y" to the question), Mew saves gibberish and seems to 
move the point at a random location in the Summary buffer.  The 
simple attached patch solved that (but maybe this is to be considered 
as a bug in y-or-n-p to also be reported to emacs?).

Best,
C.

Your patch seems correct.

BTW, the SpamAssassin bug
<https://issues.apache.org/SpamAssassin/show_bug.cgi?id=6392>
will be fixed in the next release, 3.3.2.

Thanks,

Unreproducible for me.  (Typed `SPC n y RET y RET y' on your
message to save your patch twice)

Can you reproducible the problem without your init files, 
~/.emacs, ~/.mew, etc.?

The problematic message was moved into another folder and I now got

Debugger entered--Lisp error: (args-out-of-range 1229761 1428417)
  mew-summary-save(nil)
  call-interactively(mew-summary-save nil nil)

Unfortunately, it does not happen all the time.  Maybe it is a bad
interaction with other modes.  I'll keep investigating when I
encounter the problem again.

Best,
C.

Works for me.  Setting mew-unix-browser-arg to nil also works.

BTW, Debian/Ubuntu packages set the following configuration to
use the sensible-browser.

  (setq mew-unix-browser "/usr/bin/sensible-browser")
  (setq mew-unix-browser-arg nil)
