Description Michael Selway 2008-01-10 11:15:41 UTC
From Bugzilla Helper:
User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux i686; en-US; rv:1.8.1.10) Gecko/20071128 Fedora/2.0.0.10-2.fc7 Firefox/2.0.0.10

Description of problem:
When a message has been resent using the 'B' key (vm-resend-message), it is shown in the summary line as "redistributed".  However, this only works if vm is using the mail buffer itself to display the message: it doesn't work if vm chooses to show the message in a Presentation buffer.

This has been irritating me for years, and I think I've finally found the fault.  In vm-do-needed-mode-line-update in vm-folder.el, there are two lists of local variables which are copied into the presentation buffer and summary buffer (search for vm-ml-message-edited, for example).  These lists don't include vm-ml-message-redistributed, but I believe they should.

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
emacs-vm-8.0.5.504-2.fc7

How reproducible:
Always


Steps to Reproduce:
1. resend a message (using the command bound to the B key)
2. look at the message - force it to be in a presentation buffer by, for example, requiring line-wrapping
3. It won't say "redistributed" in the mode line (this is the fault)
4. Switch to the mail folder buffer ("INBOX", typically)
5. That *will* have "redistributed" in the mode line (correctly)

Comment 1 Jonathan Underwood 2008-01-10 14:10:38 UTC
OK, thanks for the report, I can see and reproduce the problem.

I'll see if I can fix this when I update the package to 8.0.7 at the weekend.

Comment 2 Jonathan Underwood 2008-01-13 18:35:41 UTC
OK, have built updated packages and patched to try and fix the problem - testing
would be helpful if you had time. I have pushed them to the testing repos, where
they will appear in a few days, but you can pull the packages directly from koji
here:

For Fedora 7:

For Fedora 8:

Comment 3 Michael Selway 2008-01-13 19:55:46 UTC
I'm running your new build and at first glance it looks good.  I'm a very active
VM user, so if there are any obvious problems they'll show up in the next day or
so.  If I don't post again, then it's all good.  Many thanks!
