Hi Thomas,

Have you tried just using plain old libgmail to login to your account normally? Get that working first…

Once you have verified that, I would remove ~/.muttgmailsearchrc, and run mutt_gmail_search manually from the command line. It should prompt you for your information and save it. (btw, if you are on a shared machine you might want to give that file 0600 permissions).

Finally, once you have verified that mutt_gmail_search works from your command line, you can hook it up to mutt’s query command.

Hope this helps.

thanks for that hint. i’ve downloaded the patched libgmail.py… i get the following error message after running the mutt_gmail_search script:

HTTP Error 302: The HTTP server returned a redirect error that would lead to an infinite loop.
The last 30x error message was:
Moved Temporarily
Successful. Saving to .muttgmailsearchrc

any ideas? many thanks in advance.

Hi Thomas,

Actually, upstream has accepted my patch, so you should just be able to pull from CVS to get the functionality.

Thanks.
