• FidoMail Mobile 0.1.0+42 - notifications you can actually hear

    From Dmitry Protasoff@2:5001/100 to All on Mon Aug 24 21:49:42 2026
    Hello All!

    Three changes in FidoMail Mobile 0.1.0+42, all from your reports:

    - New-mail notifications now also fire when you sync by hand. They
    used to require the timer ("Sync automatically" or "Sync in
    background"), and both of those ship switched off - so if you sync
    with the button, nothing ever made a sound, however many groups you
    had ticked. That was the whole of the "checkboxes are set, mail
    arrives, no sound" report. Thank you!
    - Notifications are now off by default and ask Android for permission
    the moment you switch them on, instead of at first launch before the
    app has explained anything. IMPORTANT for anyone upgrading: if you
    ever tapped "Don't allow", the switch now honestly shows OFF -
    Settings -> "New-mail notification", turn it on and allow. If the
    system is still blocking us, Settings now says so in red instead of
    staying silent.
    - Rescan speaks your uplink's dialect. Asking an hpt-based boss to
    rescan an area used to fail ("no uplinks to forward"), because every
    tosser spells the rescan command differently. FidoMail now
    recognizes D'Bridge and FMail uplinks by their packets and otherwise
    uses the hpt form; you can also set it by hand per server, in the
    server editor -> "Rescan command dialect".
