Knut's Patch, Mike's Patch, and mine.

[David Pickens <dpickens iaesthetic com>]

Knut, et al. :)

I tried the patch and all went well.  There were some minor comflicts
between a this and a patch I'm working on, but I fixed that without
changing your code.  (Mine cleans up some ugliness in the send
multi-threaded code and starts to deal with the transfer/delete issue.)

I love the context drop-down menu!  I keep finding problems (one after the
other) with the 'transfer' code (not yours, the stuff that's in libmutt,
or balsa's use of mutt). What I'd like to do is to write a function to
force the index-page to re-load the mailbox and repopulate an index
(without destroying the notebook page). I may also write some convenience
functions in balsa-index-page.c to bring a notebook to the front using a
Mailbox pointer, find a notebook page from a Mailbox pointer, etc. (This
code gets duplicated in various places.)  I will have delete move messages
to the trash and commit imediately.  (I'm doing laundry and bored.)


Mike P. has an excellent progress bar that I'm putting in the code right
now.

Incidentally, Hector seems to have fixed the SMTP thing -- it works
through my server now:  thanks.

David
