Intervals plugin

[Charles-Hubert MOINDRON-2]

Hi!

I wrote a tiny plugin for Claws Mail, to allow users to specify fetch
mail intervals on a per-account basis.

I'm no GTK or Claws expert, so this plugin is probably not bug-free...
Feedback, comments, patches, etc. all welcome!

I haven't tested or really looked at your plugin so far, but I think
a feature like this is worth being in the core rather than a plugin.

Agreed, and for a long time!

I tried it and works fine. Agreed on being part of the core, maybe using a
combobox to select accounts and the relative interval.

Thanks

Or:
- in general receive prefs: set the default interval time for auto-retrieving
- in each account, receive tab: [x] use default interval time for .., if
  unchecked, enable another widget (as in general receive prefs) to set
  a per-account fetch time.

Well, to be honest, I agree with all of you, this should be in the core... The
only problem (for me) is that patching it requires a much deeper knowledge of
Claws than I currently have. So yeah, I'm planning on doing it, but I needed
this feature rather quickly, hence the plugin. Patches for core will follow,
but probably not before a few months from now...

Thanks for the feedback!
