email: increase reliability and robustness of the email app and IM

Lets assume, that Jolla is to be your main (maybe the only) mobile phone.

If the assumption above is true, then the following is absolutely necessary:

  • Mobile calls are reliable [I just assume this is already given]
  • Email must work reliably and extremely robust: moving/deleting/polling/updating emails (for an IMAP/dovecot) account is not reliable at all. Emails are not polled/updated on schedule while phone has access to both: WLAN and MobileData. Deleted emails are not deleted on the server. Moved emails are not moved on the server.
  • IM must work reliably. Last two weeks testing with almost perfect network connection tell me I cannot rely on this.
  • Battery life is reliably over 16 hours of average use with email polling (actually imap-push) and a few IM connections [I assume that this one is given after TOH battery drain fix]

All other features are secondary or expressed in other words: without these basic communication skills I cannot replace my main/the only mobile phone with Jolla.

I hope that these features get the priority they require.

Update 17.03.2014: Email syncing seems to work after 1.0.4.20

Update 18.03.2014: Email syncing does not work if it means connecting to WLAN first. It means, that IM does not work either as there is no network connection.
