It is not a bug, it is a feature.
Someone out there had to write the code that pushes the mail app to the front. It does not happen spontaneously, someone made it happen. And made it an exclusive behavior without user control.
It must have been a conscious feature.
A mindless and stupid one, but still a feature.
No bug to fix here.
(after suffering and spending toooo much time of experimenting I decided to get rid of the Google account approach of the Mac but use it as an IMAP account, turning off 'safe' access in my Google account)
- dewey 6y ago> Someone out there had to write the code that pushes the mail app to the front. Sometimes the code you write doesn't do what you had in mind. Or worse: gets triggered by side effects of something unrelated. I don't think it's intentional in this case but even if it would be intentional after seeing this many bug reports everywhere you'd have to reconsider and make connection errors less intrusive.
- mihaaly 6y agoYou do not push the whole app to the front by mistake, especially at some glitch of connection as it is happening here! It is not a typo or whatever kind of mistake just happens on its own but had to be a conscious action!! I write code, I make mistake, but this is beyond that! It is also neglected for years now while being very widespread, no way of being unnoticed and left there if it wasn't a conscious choice to do so!
