3 * Completed work to make both graphical interfaces work
4 with a threaded Tcl/Tk Tkinter. A threaded Tcl/Tk actually makes
5 life MORE difficult for multi-threaded Python programs, argh.
6 * Now properly handles folder names that contain parenthesis. Used
7 patch from Kyler Laird in
8 http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=173895.
10 * Changed to a more account-centric behavior. The refresh time is now
11 a per-account variable. Implemented new account classes. User
12 interfaces must now be updated to take advantage of this.
13 *** NOTE *** THIS CHANGE BREAKS COMPATIBILITY WITH OLDER VERSIONS.
14 * New color console interface: Curses.Blinkenlights! Try it out!

28 * Fixed setup.py installation instructions.
29 * Added more debugging to the CRAM-MD5 authentication module.
30 * CRAM-MD5 *really* fixed this time. Thanks to MJ for the patch.
31 * Adding missing import os to imapserver.py. Thanks to John Wiegley

36 offlineimap (3.99.3) unstable; urgency=low
38 * Moved password promting into imapserver.py. Passwords are now asked
39 for on-demand and typos will no longer crash the program (the user
40 will be re-prompted). Closes: #162672.
41 * Falls back to plain-text auth if CRAM-MD5 fails. Fixes [complete.org #42]
42 * Fixed CRAM-MD5 auth so it actually works now.

46 offlineimap (3.99.2) unstable; urgency=low
48 * Further attempts to fix imapsplit problems.
49 * When an exception occurs, OfflineIMAP will attempt to print the last
50 50 debug messages, whether or not debugging was enabled for this
51 session. This way, even unexpected and non-repeatable errors stand
52 a chance of getting a more detailed log.
53 * Handle uidvalidity file in an atomic fashion. CLoses: #165600.
54 * Supports CRAM-MD5 authentication. Fixes [complete.org #38], and for
55 Debian, Closes: #154165.
56 * Noted CRAM-MD5 support in the "CONFORMING TO" section of the manual.
57 * Certain servers may not always return the UID flag for new messages.
58 This causes an OfflineIMAP exception, though rerunning will fix it.
59 Now, OfflineIMAP will detect the condition and ignore the offending
60 messages (without an exception) until the next sync.

71 offlineimap (3.99.0) unstable; urgency=low
73 * The next few releases are adding features and reorganizing
74 code in preparation for 4.0.0.
75 * imaputil.py now logs information with IMAP debugging is enabled.
76 * Added folderfilter capability to mbnames recorder. You can now omit
77 specified folders from the mbnames output.
78 * Added a workaround to imaputil.py to deal with a bug in imaplib.py's
79 tuple when a response contains a literal in certain cases.
80 * Split out the code in bin/offlineimap into offlineimap/init.py.
81 Retaining bin/offlineimap as a skeletal piece only. Contains
82 about three lines of code now. This will make many things
83 easier, including debugging.
84 * Added library version check to bin/offlineimap and
86 * Moved __main__.ui to functions in UIBase: getglobalui() and
88 * Added license comments to some source files that were missing them.
89 * Moved some code from offlineimap/init.py to new file
90 offlineimap/syncmaster.py to help dileneate between code that
91 performs different functions.
92 * Moved threadexited from offlineimap/init.py to
93 offlineimap/threadutil.py.
94 * offlineimap.py is back to ease the use of OfflineIMAP in single-user

108 * Moved executable to bin/offlineimap. This will allow setup.py to
109 properly install it as offlineimap instead of offlineimap.py.
110 * Made sure executables use /usr/bin/env in bangpath.
111 * Font size for Blinkenlights interface is now configurable.

117 * Changed indentation in debian/control. Closes: #156327.
118 * Removed calls to folder object deletions. None have been implemented
120 * folder/Maildir.py: unlink throws OSError, not IOError; fixed.
121 Now handles message deleting race condition properly.

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

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

155 offlineimap (3.2.2) unstable; urgency=low
157 * Updated manual to show new Gray color.
158 * Scrolling behavior is better now; sometimes, with fast-scrolling text,
159 the log would stop scrolling.
160 * Better handling of read-only folders. We will now warn if there is
161 a change, but not propogate it. New config variable ignore-readonly
162 can suppress the warnings. This fixes [complete.org #10] and,
163 for Debian, Closes: #154769.
164 * If a given Maildir folder is new, remove the associated local status
165 cache file, if any. That way, there will not be any chance of
166 propogating hordes of deletes and adds based on old status data.
167 * Added support for /-separated Maildirs -- that is, hierarchical
168 Maildir trees. Fixes [complete.org #28] and, for Debian,
170 * Preventitive security: Folder names may not contain ./ or start with /.

174 offlineimap (3.2.1) unstable; urgency=low
176 * There is a new "connecting" event that will appear in all but the
177 Quiet UIs. It has a gray color in Blinkenlights. This event indicates
178 the the program is connecting to a remote server.
179 * Blinkenlights UI log window is now scrolled and has a new
180 config file option "bufferlines" to specify the size of the scroll
182 * The Blinkenlights window is now non-resizable when the log is disabled.
183 When the log is enabled, the window is resizable, and the changes in
184 size are reflected in the log widget. Therefore, the Bigger Log
185 and Smaller Log items can disappear, and the Log menu now becomes
186 a Show Log or a Hide Log menu option. No sub-menus necessary anymore.
187 This presents a much cleaner feel, more intuitive operation, and
189 * Fix for account name interpolation in dot warning from 3.2.0 from
191 * Backed out check for . in account names for now. Will put it back in
192 when we have a consensus on what exactly to do. Doubt that anyone
193 has a foldername that would conflict with Blinkenlights anyway.
194 * Fix reading the ui.Tk.Blinkenlights bufferlines option.

201 * New ui.Tk.Blinkenlights section in offlineimap.conf.
202 * New USER INTERFACES section in the manual.
203 * TTYUI isusable() now checks to see if stdout and stdin are TTYs.
204 * Added build-dependency on python2.2-dev. Closes: #154167.

208 offlineimap (3.1.1) unstable; urgency=low
210 * Modified imaputil.py and folder/Maildir.py to run faster. Eliminated
211 many regular expressions; pre-compiled many others.
212 * Fixed threadutil's exitnotifyloop to always handle threads in the order
213 they exited, rather than sometimes in the inverse order. This way,
214 make sure to handle thread's exception messages before a thread exited.
215 * Replaced imaplib.py's braindead readline() with a more efficient one.
216 * More optimizations to imaputil and folders for faster operation.
217 * These optimizations, all together, have resulted in OfflineIMAP
218 using approximately half the CPU time of previous versions, fixing
219 [complete.org #6], and... Closes: #153503.

226 the message is stored weirdly. That way, everything is uniform.
227 Fixes [complete.org #11].
228 * Manual: added UW IMAPD example with references from docwhat@gerf.org.
229 * New UI modules: Noninteractive.Basic and Noninteractive.Quiet.
230 Fixes [complete.org #14].
231 * Added per-thread profiling support to aid in debugging.

238 Date headers; will just set IMAP Internaldate to the current date.
240 * No longer doubles-up reference names for mailboxes. Closes: #153515.
241 * Noted new bug-tracking system in manual and rebuilt manual files.
242 * Now stores incoming messages in 'cur' instead of 'new' if they have
243 the S flag. Closes: #152482.

251 * Fixed remotepassfile option. Closes: #153119. Used 1-line patch from
253 * Now handles cases of not being able to get UID for an uploaded message
254 more gracefully. This could occur if the server doesn't support
255 SEARCH, can't find the message ID, or finds multiple message IDs.
257 * Now source is in Subversion. Make version.py log the Subversion

262 offlineimap (3.0.1) unstable; urgency=low
264 * Detabified the source.
265 * Added UI list to the manpage.
266 * Added -o (run only once) option with patch sent in by Martijn Pieters.
267 * Optimized folder/IMAP.py addmessagesflags() with new listjoin() in
268 imaputil. Now, send the server 1:5,7 instead of 1,2,3,4,5,7.
269 * Made folder/Maildir.py/deletemessage() more tolerant if a message
270 asked to be deleted already has been.
271 * In Base.py/copymessageto(), no longer bother calling getmessage()
272 unless a folder's storemessages() returns true. This will also help
273 with syncing to LocalStatus if the user deleted messages in the
274 Maildir since the cachemessagelist() was called.

278 offlineimap (3.0.0) unstable; urgency=low
280 * Introduced a new graphical user interface written with Tkinter.
281 It features a nice view of multi-threaded displays.
282 * The TTY user interface now also displays thread names.
283 * Program-wide, new threads are given descriptive names to aid in
284 debugging and status messages.
285 * Added new module offlineimap/ui/detect.py that is used to detect
286 which user interface to select for a given session. Its operation
287 is governed by the ui config option and the -u command-line option.
288 * Made IMAP folder addmessagesflags() resiliant to a server refusing
289 to return a full set of new message flags. Closes: #152587.
290 * Completely rewrote documentation. OfflineIMAP now has an
291 exhaustive manpage, which is really a manual. It is also shipped
292 in plain text, HTML, PDF, and PostScript formats.
293 * New command-line options:
294 -1 to force no multi-threaded operation
295 -u to force a particular UI
296 -a to specify which accounts to sync
298 -c to specify an alternate config file
299 * Added a workaround for UW IMAP problem wherein the server loses
300 uidvalidity whenever a folder is emptied. Now, the program
301 will not consider it a problem if uidvalidity is lost when a folder
302 and the local status cache are both completely empty, since we do
303 not really need to preserve uidvalidity in that case anyway.

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

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

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

392 * Added the ability to exclude folders.
393 * If upgrading from 1.0.x, you will need to add maxsyncaccounts to the
394 general section and maxconnections to each account sections.
395 There is also a new folderfilter option.
396 You can find examples of all of these in the new offlineimap.conf
397 example file packaged with the distribution.
