Bug Description

I click the "Receive mail on all accounts" button, "fetching" label with an empty progressbar appear for a second, and nothing happens. On startup and on updating account Postler prints the following text to terminal:

** (postler-service:4001): WARNING **: postler-service.vala:116: Indicator: Error opening directory '/<email address hidden>/INBOX/new': No such file or directory

This happened because IMAP was switched off in my Gmail preferences and Postler didn't return an error about it (failed silently). This is fixed in the latest version from daily build PPA.

Postler still fails silently on any errors; it worked for me because I launched it in verbode mode.
