Hey guys… for anyone following this thread i *think* we have a stable build up - that should play nicely with any other mail plugins. If anyone has a moment please test it out and email me at customer-service (at) tastyapps (dot) com - let me know how it fairs !

LetterBox… hmmm… thanks for that info Drew… I’ll look into it right away.

Follow-up… It seems that having LetterBox installed (I didn’t even realize I still did) was at least part of if not the whole problem. I removed LetterBox, Widemail, and FlagIt, and reinstalled just Widemail and Flagit. So far, everything seems to be working correctly!

Tim,

I’m afraid I’m still having the same problem. I can give you a little more info to hopefully help track this down. I removed all of the files you said except “flagit! plists from user/library/mail/”. I didn’t see anything that looked flagit related in that folder. Let me know what file name(s) I should be seeing.

When I install FlagIt and reopen mail, my message viewer window is always closed. If I go to Window -> Message Viewer, the message viewer will open, but it’s no longer in Widemail format. I can select different messages and mark them as expected, however at no time can I see any actual e-mails come up in the mail viewing window. It perpetually says “Loading…”

Any other ideas?

Ok Drew - it might be because you had some of the remnants of the old version in there… try this…

1. close mail
2. remove the flagit! plists from user/library/mail/
3. remove the flagit.bundle from user/library/application support/SIMBL
4. reinstall flagit! (v1.1b - from the website)

Lemme know if that works for you.

Tim,

I’m afraid the new version is still giving me trouble with Widemail installed. As soon as I install FlagIt, Mail breaks — it loads in the dock, but my mail window will not open, and I’m unable to close the program. When I force quit and manually remove the files you list above, it works again.

Both FlagIt and Widemail are their newest versions. OS is Leopard with all Software Updates up-to-date. Good luck fixing this, as it’s software I’d definitely love to buy.

Good news. I’ll have a look.

A changelog would help users to know what has changed from build and build. I recommend them!

Hey guys… ok we had some bugs with the 1.0beta - 1.1 is up now - should be a lot more stable. Fixed a bunch of bugs, the main ones being the conflict with Widemail and the lack of country support outside English/USA.

If anyone is still having problems please email us through the site, i’ll be able to help you out directly.

Thanks !

I notice a new build of FlagIt! is out on MacUpdate but with no changelog. I wonder if they’ve cracked the SIMBL problems.

every app i’ve used w simbl causes me numerous hours of painstaking work to get my system back to where it was. wifinder doesn’t work; flagit forced me to rebuild my entire mail app…too bad. tastyapps guys seem nice….
