Update I used mailnag tomorrow, and suspend my laptop when I went to bed.
|
|
Another Update I downloaded your source coed and modified it to try to solve my issue.
|
|
Third Update Those exceptions happened after connecting VPN. This time, in mailnagdaemon.py line 206, I added a "while true", and other code keep them original.
And after the first exception, mailnag retried but another exception happened.
|
|
Can you please post the contents of ~/.config/mailnag/mailnag.cfg? |
|
Did some replacement of email address and user_name for privacy. |
|
Confirmed. |
|
I am using Ubuntu 19.04, after mailnag-config |
|
Ubuntu: 18.04 LTS |

@SFBB: your connection is terminated due to a socket error in the python2 implementation of imaplib. Mailnag has been ported to python3 recently - can you check out the latest code from master and see if the problem still persists? @alfabuster |
|
With VPN (wireguard) configured globally by provider application, launch at startup, dbus NetworManager connection state returned is 60 (ie NM_STATE_CONNECTED_SITE). ConnectivityTest.is_offline() returns False if state != 70 (ie NM_STATE_CONNECTED_GLOBAL) |
|
@machinbrol: Great finding, that's exactly what I was suspecting - when connected via VPN, the connection test indicates "offline" in networkmanager mode, since this mode checks for a direct internet connection. Can somebody please confirm if changing the |

This should realy be fixed now.

@alfabuster this is onaother, Gmail specific issue, please have a look at the troubleshooting section of the readme.
|
|
@pulb Ok. Continue... This is maybe the longest time I spent for make program work... |
|
@alfabuster i googled this up. This seems to be a gmail issue related to your environment/port setup. Are you behind a firewall/connected to a VPN? |
|
@pulb Yes, I use nordvpn now... |
|
Ok so this seems to be a port configuration problem of your vpn. It's not mailnag related, every other app accessing that port will have that issue.
|
|
Ok. But without VPN same problem. It seems like google close connection or something like that... |
|
"Cannot assign requested address" means mailnag cannot bind to the specified mail server at the specified port. There must be something wrong with your network/routing setup. What mail server/port did you enter?

Should be fixed in 2.2.0 release. |
Ubuntu 18.10
Mailnag 1.3.0
Hello,
1. VPN
I just find that if I connected to a VPN, sometimes Mailnag won't work well even I clicked the "Check for Mail" button.
I connected VPN at about 21:11:41. And I clicked the "Click for Mail" button at 21:13:29 and later to make Mailnag report some messages, otherwise, it will report nothing. Messages are like "Checking 0 email account(s)."
2. WiFi
And always after I make my WiFi disappear when my laptop still connected to it, Mailnag will have the same issue. For example, my laptop connected to my phone's mobile network, and I disabled the network on my phone when my laptop still connected to it, and after some minutes, I enabled this network, and make my computer connect to it, Mailnag will not work well.
3. More Testing
And I tested the
sudo netstat -tup -W | column -tcommand to see if Mailnag is checking to my IMAP email sites, and the answer is no.4. My Opinion
Since I am not familiar with those things in python, I just can make some guesses.
I think the VPN and WiFi issues are caused by the same exception. And you don't handle this exception. Maybe something related to dbus.
