1.
In some income and sent mails name of attachments is wrong.

If I open mail from mail list, and go to any section: text/html/attachments/header/..., It asks me for 'save the changes'
But I didn't make any changes ! I open and see only

This can happen normally. If the sender doesn't include an attachment name it won't be displayed, however one will be generated if you try and open or save it. This happens quite a lot when Outlook or Exchange generates a calendar email for me. You have to export the email to disk and check the headers of the attachment's MIME segment to confirm there SHOULD be an attachment name. If you're unsure, send me the raw exported file and I'll have a look.

I've tried to reproduce this and it's not happening for me. But I'll keep an eye out for it. Maybe something install specific going on here?

Ok well I'll need to see the export of an example email. I'll try and reproduce it this end, but without the right source email that could be difficult.

(You can import this exported file OR see it in text-editor)

3. If I delete folder 'x' and 'EMPTY TRASH' - I have crash of InScribe (v.2.2.14, ..., v.2.3.5)

Got it...

The issue was I was using the wrong variable in one spot. Fixed for the next build. Thanks.

Fixed in v2.3.7

Also I've got some logging in for your options file backup problem. If you look at the console output you'll find some entries like:

First starts is without many *.bak files. (I deleted these by hand)
Second starts is normal. After second starts I have ScribeOptions_1 .. ScribeOptions_14 files now.

It only found up to number 9... but the files continued to number 14. I'm guessing the scanning fails if there are gaps in the numbers. Leaving some files out of the list of backups. You can see it's deleting some of the files it knows about, but the list is incomplete. I'll see what the code actually does in the case there is gaps in the numbers.

Yes, maybe, you are right.
I start v237 now and I have:
Files 1..9 were updated now.
Files 10..14 had previous date-stamp.

So following this up. The scanning code that looks for backups is basically:

for all files in folder:
    if the file name contains 'ScribeOptions' and 
        the extension is 'xml' or 'bak' then:

        add to list of options files

    endif


Now after an options file is loaded successfully, I sort the list by modified date and delete the oldest until there is just the normal xml file and 5 backups. So it's not making sense that the backups aren't being found. Even with gaps in the numbers. I did a test here and made a bunch of backups with missing numbers and they were all found and trimmed by the backup culling code.

Unless somehow the 'ScribeOptions' is no longer in the file name, then they could be missed. Or if the extension changes to something other than xml or bak. Remember the backup cull happens only at startup, not during runtime. So collecting a few more during runtime should be ok. Only if they persist after a restart do I think it's a problem.
