Hmm... when I try this script, it freezes m openbox completely, and I have to killall python to get it going again. I've tried just leaving it for a little while to see if it was logging in to gmail, but after 5 minutes I gave up. Any idea whats wrong? Everything seems to look fine on the config side of things....

| I had the same thing happen with the second script. It doesn't handle a lot of emails very well. Look the output openbox spits out (Ctrl+Alt+F1) to get an idea of what happened. |

Yea the reason I'm offering the 1st script still is because if you have more than 6 or so emails in your inbox you're going to run into freezing/extensive delay problems. The 2nd script fetches ALL email in the inbox and filters and prints the ones in bold (unread).
I talked to the libgmail creator and he said faster times are achievable, I'm going to try some Disney magic (tm) later this week. He's thinking of adding a feature to libgmail itself, but until then I'm going to have to do a quick hack.

Yep I'm going to stick with the first version for now, its an acceptable delay (1-2 seconds).
It doesn't just search through your inbox for unread mail though - it searches through archived stuff as well (if you archive something without reading it, it'll still be picked up as unread).

Out of curiosity, what theme are you using in your gmail checker shots? And can I get it? Thanks.

Damn, this is sweet.
Is it possible to have this with FVWM?  |

I'm not sure, FVWM is a complex and inferior window manager with only 2 real theme creators. If anyone could do it, I'm sure they could. I'm only doing the openbox version though  .

FVWM > OpenBox FYI. 
It's gotta be possible! |

| It is possible. FVWM supports pipe menus. All you have to do is change the menu format. |

Alright 0.0.3 has been released. This version caches the login data, so after you've logged in once drawing the menu should be faster. Thanks for follower for providing the majority of the code in this release.
NOTE: You MUST have the CVS version of libgmail.py for this script to work. Any bugs post here.
Also if changing to a different username/password make sure you remove the login.cache from the libgmail/script directory.
This released is FIXED! Redownload from the first post!

Thanks for the theme info. I really like what you've done.

Did a quick release of 0.0.3.1 which adds a autologin feature when you click the menu item. If this doesn't work for a certain web browser say so here. I added 's around the URL.

Here is a quick and messy pipe menu for POP3/IMAP and other fetchmail supported web mail services (this version uses gmx):
you need to specify a fetchmailrc file. I keep mine in ~/.config/openbox/pipes/fetchmailrc-$WEBMAILNAME, see below for an example.
| Code: |
#!/bin/sh
MESS=$(fetchmail -c -f ~/.config/openbox/pipes/fetchmailrc-gmx)
RETVAL=$?
MESS=$(echo $MESS | cut -d " " -f 1-2)
echo "<?xml version=\"1.0\" encoding=\"UTF-8\"?>"
echo "<openbox_pipe_menu>"
if [ $RETVAL = 1 ]; then
echo "<menu id=\"gmx\" label=\"no mail\">"
else
echo "<menu id=\"gmx\" label=\"$MESS\" >"
echo " <item label=\"Go there...\">"
echo " <action name=\"execute\"><execute>"
echo " opera -noraise -remote 'openURL(http://www.gmx.net/de/dienst/,new-page)' "
echo " </execute></action>"
echo " </item>"
fi
echo "</menu>"
echo "</openbox_pipe_menu>"
exit 0
|
example fetchmailrc-gmx:
| Code: |
poll mail.gmx.net with protocol auto
user 'nephros@gmx.net' there with password 'I@m5()1337'
|
Perhaps someone will find this useful.

I get an error with version 0.0.3.1. I am using libgmail.py version 1.36 from CVS.
| Code: | File "/home/allucid/.config/openbox/scripts/gmail-openbox-0.0.3.1.py", line 39, in ?
ga = libgmail.GmailAccount(name, pw)

Is libgmail.py in the same directory as the script itself? It doesn't seem like it's finding it. Also you need to grab the full .tar.gz file and replace libgmail.py with the cvs version.

Did you try removing /tmp/gmail.cache? Over time the values stored in there "expire" and you have to get new cookie info. I think thats how I solved the problem when I had it.

Whoops, I just noticed that the link to the script was down... I reuploaded it.. I changed the gmail.cache location to ~. This is because keeping the file in /tmp isn't the brightest idea since pretty much any user has access to the file.
Err that gives an error message.. it's recommended you change the default /tmp

|

I have a question. I use and enjoy this script. Thanks for coding it.
However, my gmail account name and password are now completely unsecure. I shows up in my bash history and in the script itself.
| Code: | | cat ~/.bash_history | grep https |
Any suggestions for making this more secure?

Hmm, I cant seem to duplicate this.
I'm not sure what I did to cause it to show in bash history but its not there now. Strange.
I'll keep looking. |
