253 * Fixed two potential obscure race conditions in folder/Maildir.py.

256 been possible for this to have been called in such a way that timeseq
257 was not properly updated.
258 + Condition 2 involved the call to gettimeseq(). Since the timeseq is
259 based on the system clock, we now use the time as reported inside
260 timeseq() rather than outside. This way, we can be assured that the
261 same value is in use both places.

276 in OfflineIMAP and in mail servers that implement this poorly.

338 * This is a 4.0 TRACK release, and may be unstable or in flux!
339 * Big news: OfflineIMAP can now sync two remote IMAP servers to each
340 other, with no need to write a Maildir at all.
341 * WARNING: the format of the configuration file *AND* the local
342 status area changes with this release!
343 * Major reworking of internal management of accounts. Previously, the
344 account defined a local Maildir and a remote IMAP server. Now, the
345 account is simply a connection between two repositories. For
346 traditional ones, an account basically specifies a refresh interval,
347 a Maildir repository, and an IMAP repository.
348 * Added a notion of a repository to the configuration file. Repositories
349 currently available are IMAP and Maildir. Combined with the new account
350 system, this lets the user define powerful combinations without
351 duplicating information.
352 * When uploading messages to an IMAP server, OfflineIMAP generates its
353 own X-OfflineIMAP header rather than trying to guess the new message UID
354 based on the Message-Id header. This leads to greater reliability when
355 uploading messages, especially when dealing with duplicate messages.
356 This change was required to permit reliable IMAP-to-IMAP syncing, but
357 helps with regular IMAP-to-Maildir syncing as well.
358 * Local status area under ~/.offlineimap revamped. It now contains
359 separate subdirectories for each account and repository, and they
360 contain UID validity information, UID mapping (for IMAP-to-IMAP
361 syncing). UID validity information is no longer stored in the Maildir
363 * New debug type: "thread" to debug multithreading.
364 * preauth tunnels no longer require remoteuser, remotepass, host,
365 or port in the configuration file.
366 * Logging for preauth tunnels is more sensible.
367 * Fixed a logic error for syncs with a reference that returns no folders.

403 * This is a 4.0 TRACK release, and may be unstable or in flux!
404 * Converted entire manual to DocBook SGML so it will be easier to
405 expand in the future. The HTML manual, also, looks far nicer now
407 * Fixed the Tk.VerboseUI -- small, silly error introduced in 3.99.6.
408 * Multiple performance and reliability enhancements to syncing
409 algorithms, as described below.
410 * The process of uploading new messages from local folders to the IMAP
411 server was not internally multi-threaded previously. Now it is.
412 This means that if you have a single folder with lots of new messages
413 locally, the processing time should be dramatically sped up. Moreover,
414 the process should be more reliable because we do not risk connections
416 * The process of synchronizing flags has been overhauled and optimized.
417 Previously, for each message where a flag (seen, replied, etc.) was
418 changed, we'd issue a separate command to the IMAP server to adjust
419 things. Now, we issue one command for each flag. In other words,
420 instead of seing 45 messages saying something like "Adding flag S to
421 message 1421", you now see one message saying "Adding flag S to 45
422 messages" -- and the interaction with the IMAP server may well be
423 almost 45 times faster on this. We will now issue at most four
424 commands per flag operation (add or remove) per folder, where before,
425 we may have issued as many as two per message. Should be a
426 large speedup in most cases, but a small slowdown in a few.
427 * Potentially increased the reliability of writing files to the Maildir.

433 * This a 4.0 TRACK release, and may be unstable or in flux!
434 * Completed work to make both graphical interfaces work
435 with a threaded Tcl/Tk Tkinter. A threaded Tcl/Tk actually makes
436 life MORE difficult for multi-threaded Python programs, argh.
437 * Now properly handles folder names that contain parenthesis. Used
438 patch from Kyler Laird in
439 http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=173895.
441 * Changed to a more account-centric behavior. The refresh time is now
442 a per-account variable. Implemented new account classes. User
443 interfaces must now be updated to take advantage of this.
444 *** NOTE *** THIS CHANGE BREAKS COMPATIBILITY WITH OLDER VERSIONS.
445 * New color console interface: Curses.Blinkenlights! Try it out!
447 * Due to possibly having one account sleep while another is reading a
448 password, and other tricky situations, support for nice updating and
449 cancelling of a sleep in TTY.TTYUI has been removed. (Sleep will
450 still work; there is just no way to cancel it early.)
452 However, this is not going to be a huge problem because the new Curses
453 Blinkenlights interface has this support, and does it a lot better than
454 TTY.TTYUI ever could have.

513 offlineimap (3.99.0) unstable; urgency=low
515 * The next few releases are adding features and reorganizing
516 code in preparation for 4.0.0.
517 * imaputil.py now logs information with IMAP debugging is enabled.
518 * Added folderfilter capability to mbnames recorder. You can now omit
519 specified folders from the mbnames output.
520 * Added a workaround to imaputil.py to deal with a bug in imaplib.py's
521 tuple when a response contains a literal in certain cases.
522 * Split out the code in bin/offlineimap into offlineimap/init.py.
523 Retaining bin/offlineimap as a skeletal piece only. Contains
524 about three lines of code now. This will make many things
525 easier, including debugging.
526 * Added library version check to bin/offlineimap and
528 * Moved __main__.ui to functions in UIBase: getglobalui() and
530 * Added license comments to some source files that were missing them.
531 * Moved some code from offlineimap/init.py to new file
532 offlineimap/syncmaster.py to help dileneate between code that
533 performs different functions.
534 * Moved threadexited from offlineimap/init.py to
535 offlineimap/threadutil.py.
536 * offlineimap.py is back to ease the use of OfflineIMAP in single-user

541 offlineimap (3.2.8) unstable; urgency=low
543 * Added a work-around for some IMAP servers that respond poorly
544 to LIST "" "". It will now do LIST "" "*", for them only.

548 offlineimap (3.2.7) unstable; urgency=low
550 * Moved executable to bin/offlineimap. This will allow setup.py to
551 properly install it as offlineimap instead of offlineimap.py.
552 * Made sure executables use /usr/bin/env in bangpath.
553 * Font size for Blinkenlights interface is now configurable.

557 offlineimap (3.2.6) unstable; urgency=low
559 * Changed indentation in debian/control. Closes: #156327.
560 * Removed calls to folder object deletions. None have been implemented
562 * folder/Maildir.py: unlink throws OSError, not IOError; fixed.
563 Now handles message deleting race condition properly.

568 offlineimap (3.2.5) unstable; urgency=low
570 * Now handles uploading messages without Message-Id headers.
572 * Applied patch from Tommi Virtanen that adds two new config file
573 options: pythonfile and foldersort. Fixes [complete.org #29], and
574 for Debian, Closes: #155637.
575 * Added documentation for the above features.
576 * Even more resiliant in the face of invalid Date headers. Closes: #155994.

580 offlineimap (3.2.4) unstable; urgency=low
582 * When using nested folders, the Maildir repository handler now properly
583 deals with folders that are nested inside "noselect" folders -- ones
584 that do not actually contain messages and are not provided in the
585 server's LIST response. Fixes [complete.org #32] and, for Debian,

590 offlineimap (3.2.3) unstable; urgency=low
592 * -d now takes a parameter: imap or maildir (or both) to specify
593 what type of debugging to do.
595 -- John Goerzen <jgoerzen@complete.org> Thu, 8 Aug 2002 10:02:36 -0500
597 offlineimap (3.2.2) unstable; urgency=low
599 * Updated manual to show new Gray color.
600 * Scrolling behavior is better now; sometimes, with fast-scrolling text,
601 the log would stop scrolling.
602 * Better handling of read-only folders. We will now warn if there is
603 a change, but not propogate it. New config variable ignore-readonly
604 can suppress the warnings. This fixes [complete.org #10] and,
605 for Debian, Closes: #154769.
606 * If a given Maildir folder is new, remove the associated local status
607 cache file, if any. That way, there will not be any chance of
608 propogating hordes of deletes and adds based on old status data.
609 * Added support for /-separated Maildirs -- that is, hierarchical
610 Maildir trees. Fixes [complete.org #28] and, for Debian,
612 * Preventitive security: Folder names may not contain ./ or start with /.

616 offlineimap (3.2.1) unstable; urgency=low
618 * There is a new "connecting" event that will appear in all but the
619 Quiet UIs. It has a gray color in Blinkenlights. This event indicates
620 the the program is connecting to a remote server.
621 * Blinkenlights UI log window is now scrolled and has a new
622 config file option "bufferlines" to specify the size of the scroll
624 * The Blinkenlights window is now non-resizable when the log is disabled.
625 When the log is enabled, the window is resizable, and the changes in
626 size are reflected in the log widget. Therefore, the Bigger Log
627 and Smaller Log items can disappear, and the Log menu now becomes
628 a Show Log or a Hide Log menu option. No sub-menus necessary anymore.
629 This presents a much cleaner feel, more intuitive operation, and
631 * Fix for account name interpolation in dot warning from 3.2.0 from
633 * Backed out check for . in account names for now. Will put it back in
634 when we have a consensus on what exactly to do. Doubt that anyone
635 has a foldername that would conflict with Blinkenlights anyway.
636 * Fix reading the ui.Tk.Blinkenlights bufferlines option.
638 -- John Goerzen <jgoerzen@complete.org> Wed, 24 Jul 2002 17:04:04 -0500
640 offlineimap (3.2.0) unstable; urgency=low
642 * New BLINKENLIGHTS interface! Mesmerising, isn't it?
643 * New ui.Tk.Blinkenlights section in offlineimap.conf.
644 * New USER INTERFACES section in the manual.
645 * TTYUI isusable() now checks to see if stdout and stdin are TTYs.
646 * Added build-dependency on python2.2-dev. Closes: #154167.
648 -- John Goerzen <jgoerzen@complete.org> Wed, 24 Jul 2002 17:53:20 -0500
650 offlineimap (3.1.1) unstable; urgency=low
652 * Modified imaputil.py and folder/Maildir.py to run faster. Eliminated
653 many regular expressions; pre-compiled many others.
654 * Fixed threadutil's exitnotifyloop to always handle threads in the order
655 they exited, rather than sometimes in the inverse order. This way,
656 make sure to handle thread's exception messages before a thread exited.
657 * Replaced imaplib.py's braindead readline() with a more efficient one.
658 * More optimizations to imaputil and folders for faster operation.
659 * These optimizations, all together, have resulted in OfflineIMAP
660 using approximately half the CPU time of previous versions, fixing
661 [complete.org #6], and... Closes: #153503.

665 offlineimap (3.1.0) unstable; urgency=low
667 * When uploading messages from a Maildir, now convert \r\n to \n in case
668 the message is stored weirdly. That way, everything is uniform.
669 Fixes [complete.org #11].
670 * Manual: added UW IMAPD example with references from docwhat@gerf.org.
671 * New UI modules: Noninteractive.Basic and Noninteractive.Quiet.
672 Fixes [complete.org #14].
673 * Added per-thread profiling support to aid in debugging.

677 offlineimap (3.0.3) unstable; urgency=low
679 * No longer throws an exception when updating messages with strange
680 Date headers; will just set IMAP Internaldate to the current date.
682 * No longer doubles-up reference names for mailboxes. Closes: #153515.
683 * Noted new bug-tracking system in manual and rebuilt manual files.
684 * Now stores incoming messages in 'cur' instead of 'new' if they have
685 the S flag. Closes: #152482.

689 offlineimap (3.0.2) unstable; urgency=low
691 * Fixed mailbox name recorder to use localfolder.getvisiblename() rather
692 than remotefolder.getvisiblename()
693 * Fixed remotepassfile option. Closes: #153119. Used 1-line patch from
695 * Now handles cases of not being able to get UID for an uploaded message
696 more gracefully. This could occur if the server doesn't support
697 SEARCH, can't find the message ID, or finds multiple message IDs.
699 * Now source is in Subversion. Make version.py log the Subversion

704 offlineimap (3.0.1) unstable; urgency=low
706 * Detabified the source.
707 * Added UI list to the manpage.
708 * Added -o (run only once) option with patch sent in by Martijn Pieters.
709 * Optimized folder/IMAP.py addmessagesflags() with new listjoin() in
710 imaputil. Now, send the server 1:5,7 instead of 1,2,3,4,5,7.
711 * Made folder/Maildir.py/deletemessage() more tolerant if a message
712 asked to be deleted already has been.
713 * In Base.py/copymessageto(), no longer bother calling getmessage()
714 unless a folder's storemessages() returns true. This will also help
715 with syncing to LocalStatus if the user deleted messages in the
716 Maildir since the cachemessagelist() was called.

720 offlineimap (3.0.0) unstable; urgency=low
722 * Introduced a new graphical user interface written with Tkinter.
723 It features a nice view of multi-threaded displays.
724 * The TTY user interface now also displays thread names.
725 * Program-wide, new threads are given descriptive names to aid in
726 debugging and status messages.
727 * Added new module offlineimap/ui/detect.py that is used to detect
728 which user interface to select for a given session. Its operation
729 is governed by the ui config option and the -u command-line option.
730 * Made IMAP folder addmessagesflags() resiliant to a server refusing
731 to return a full set of new message flags. Closes: #152587.
732 * Completely rewrote documentation. OfflineIMAP now has an
733 exhaustive manpage, which is really a manual. It is also shipped
734 in plain text, HTML, PDF, and PostScript formats.
735 * New command-line options:
736 -1 to force no multi-threaded operation
737 -u to force a particular UI
738 -a to specify which accounts to sync
740 -c to specify an alternate config file
741 * Added a workaround for UW IMAP problem wherein the server loses
742 uidvalidity whenever a folder is emptied. Now, the program
743 will not consider it a problem if uidvalidity is lost when a folder
744 and the local status cache are both completely empty, since we do
745 not really need to preserve uidvalidity in that case anyway.

750 offlineimap (2.0.8) unstable; urgency=low
752 * Modified the IMAP folder to use SELECT rather than STATUS more often.
753 Makes the code more robust; handles better with read-only folders;
754 and runs faster, especially for non-threaded useres, where it
755 may eliminate up to 2-3 commands per folder.
756 * Made sure IMAP folder savemessage() does a select. This was a possible
758 * Modified Maildir folder to unlink messages with T flag in
760 * My own box now syncs in 3 seconds.
761 * Optimized acquireconnection() to try to give a thread back the
762 connection that it last used, if possible.

772 offlineimap (2.0.6) unstable; urgency=low
774 * Added support for holdconnectionopen and keepalive. This feature
775 allows for an IMAP server connection(s) to be held open until
776 the next sync process, permitting faster restart times.
777 * Another try at read-only folder support. This is nasty because I
778 have no way to test it and imaplib's read-only support is weird.
779 * Closing out old bug; fixed in 1.0.2. Closes: #150803.
780 * Optimized algorithm so that a SELECT is never issued for folders
781 that contain no messages.

793 offlineimap (2.0.4) unstable; urgency=low
795 * Made OfflineIMAP at least rudimentarily compatible with read-only
796 folders. It will still fail if they get modified locally, though.
797 * Flags are handled case-insensitively. Closes: #151993.

801 offlineimap (2.0.3) unstable; urgency=low

815 offlineimap (2.0.1) unstable; urgency=low
817 * Fixed a bug with not properly propogating foldersep changes.
818 Now, local folders and status folders properly use the foldersep
819 mechanism. This corrects a problem with Exchange servers.
820 * Wrote a major new thread montiring subsystem, defined a new
821 ExitNotifyThread. Handling of Ctrl-C now occurs within 1 second
822 rather than after the whole program terminates. Exceptions that
823 occur in a thread are now caught by the main thread and marshalled
824 over into the UI side of things for dispatch. The entire program will
825 now abort when one thread dies with an exception.

829 offlineimap (2.0.0) unstable; urgency=low
831 * This code is now multithreaded. New config file options control the
832 behavior. This can make synchronizing several times faster.
833 * Fixed the STATUS call to be compatible with Exchange.
834 * Added the ability to exclude folders.
835 * If upgrading from 1.0.x, you will need to add maxsyncaccounts to the
836 general section and maxconnections to each account sections.
837 There is also a new folderfilter option.
838 You can find examples of all of these in the new offlineimap.conf
839 example file packaged with the distribution.
840 * The Debian package now properly installs the example offlineimap.conf
842 * There is a new mailing list available. To join, send SUBSCRIBE
843 to offlineimap-request@complete.org. The posting address is

848 offlineimap (1.0.4) unstable; urgency=low
850 * Deletion of more than one message has been optimized. This could make
851 deleting large numbers of messages far faster -- several orders of

854 possible. Better handling of Ctrl-C in TTY handler.
