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

422 * This is a 4.0 TRACK release, and may be unstable or in flux!
423 * Big news: OfflineIMAP can now sync two remote IMAP servers to each
424 other, with no need to write a Maildir at all.
425 * WARNING: the format of the configuration file *AND* the local
426 status area changes with this release!
427 * Major reworking of internal management of accounts. Previously, the
428 account defined a local Maildir and a remote IMAP server. Now, the
429 account is simply a connection between two repositories. For
430 traditional ones, an account basically specifies a refresh interval,
431 a Maildir repository, and an IMAP repository.
432 * Added a notion of a repository to the configuration file. Repositories
433 currently available are IMAP and Maildir. Combined with the new account
434 system, this lets the user define powerful combinations without
435 duplicating information.
436 * When uploading messages to an IMAP server, OfflineIMAP generates its
437 own X-OfflineIMAP header rather than trying to guess the new message UID
438 based on the Message-Id header. This leads to greater reliability when
439 uploading messages, especially when dealing with duplicate messages.
440 This change was required to permit reliable IMAP-to-IMAP syncing, but
441 helps with regular IMAP-to-Maildir syncing as well.
442 * Local status area under ~/.offlineimap revamped. It now contains
443 separate subdirectories for each account and repository, and they
444 contain UID validity information, UID mapping (for IMAP-to-IMAP
445 syncing). UID validity information is no longer stored in the Maildir
447 * New debug type: "thread" to debug multithreading.
448 * preauth tunnels no longer require remoteuser, remotepass, host,
449 or port in the configuration file.
450 * Logging for preauth tunnels is more sensible.
451 * Fixed a logic error for syncs with a reference that returns no folders.

488 * Converted entire manual to DocBook SGML so it will be easier to
489 expand in the future. The HTML manual, also, looks far nicer now
491 * Fixed the Tk.VerboseUI -- small, silly error introduced in 3.99.6.
492 * Multiple performance and reliability enhancements to syncing
493 algorithms, as described below.
494 * The process of uploading new messages from local folders to the IMAP
495 server was not internally multi-threaded previously. Now it is.
496 This means that if you have a single folder with lots of new messages
497 locally, the processing time should be dramatically sped up. Moreover,
498 the process should be more reliable because we do not risk connections
500 * The process of synchronizing flags has been overhauled and optimized.
501 Previously, for each message where a flag (seen, replied, etc.) was
502 changed, we'd issue a separate command to the IMAP server to adjust
503 things. Now, we issue one command for each flag. In other words,
504 instead of seing 45 messages saying something like "Adding flag S to
505 message 1421", you now see one message saying "Adding flag S to 45
506 messages" -- and the interaction with the IMAP server may well be
507 almost 45 times faster on this. We will now issue at most four
508 commands per flag operation (add or remove) per folder, where before,
509 we may have issued as many as two per message. Should be a
510 large speedup in most cases, but a small slowdown in a few.
511 * Potentially increased the reliability of writing files to the Maildir.

521 * Now properly handles folder names that contain parenthesis. Used
522 patch from Kyler Laird in
523 http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=173895.
525 * Changed to a more account-centric behavior. The refresh time is now
526 a per-account variable. Implemented new account classes. User
527 interfaces must now be updated to take advantage of this.
528 *** NOTE *** THIS CHANGE BREAKS COMPATIBILITY WITH OLDER VERSIONS.
529 * New color console interface: Curses.Blinkenlights! Try it out!
531 * Due to possibly having one account sleep while another is reading a
532 password, and other tricky situations, support for nice updating and
533 cancelling of a sleep in TTY.TTYUI has been removed. (Sleep will
534 still work; there is just no way to cancel it early.)
536 However, this is not going to be a huge problem because the new Curses
537 Blinkenlights interface has this support, and does it a lot better than
538 TTY.TTYUI ever could have.
539 * Provided config file default for many more options. Closes: #168219.
540 * New example file offlineimap.conf.minimal showing you how to get started
541 fast. It uses only 6 lines to set up an account.

566 will be re-prompted). Closes: #162672.
567 * Falls back to plain-text auth if CRAM-MD5 fails. Fixes [complete.org #42]

572 offlineimap (3.99.2) unstable; urgency=low
574 * Further attempts to fix imapsplit problems.
575 * When an exception occurs, OfflineIMAP will attempt to print the last
576 50 debug messages, whether or not debugging was enabled for this
577 session. This way, even unexpected and non-repeatable errors stand
578 a chance of getting a more detailed log.
579 * Handle uidvalidity file in an atomic fashion. CLoses: #165600.
580 * Supports CRAM-MD5 authentication. Fixes [complete.org #38], and for
581 Debian, Closes: #154165.
582 * Noted CRAM-MD5 support in the "CONFORMING TO" section of the manual.
583 * Certain servers may not always return the UID flag for new messages.
584 This causes an OfflineIMAP exception, though rerunning will fix it.
585 Now, OfflineIMAP will detect the condition and ignore the offending
586 messages (without an exception) until the next sync.

597 offlineimap (3.99.0) unstable; urgency=low
599 * The next few releases are adding features and reorganizing
600 code in preparation for 4.0.0.
601 * imaputil.py now logs information with IMAP debugging is enabled.
602 * Added folderfilter capability to mbnames recorder. You can now omit
603 specified folders from the mbnames output.
604 * Added a workaround to imaputil.py to deal with a bug in imaplib.py's
605 tuple when a response contains a literal in certain cases.
606 * Split out the code in bin/offlineimap into offlineimap/init.py.
607 Retaining bin/offlineimap as a skeletal piece only. Contains
608 about three lines of code now. This will make many things
609 easier, including debugging.
610 * Added library version check to bin/offlineimap and
612 * Moved __main__.ui to functions in UIBase: getglobalui() and
614 * Added license comments to some source files that were missing them.
615 * Moved some code from offlineimap/init.py to new file
616 offlineimap/syncmaster.py to help dileneate between code that
617 performs different functions.
618 * Moved threadexited from offlineimap/init.py to
619 offlineimap/threadutil.py.
620 * offlineimap.py is back to ease the use of OfflineIMAP in single-user

637 * Font size for Blinkenlights interface is now configurable.

654 * Now handles uploading messages without Message-Id headers.
656 * Applied patch from Tommi Virtanen that adds two new config file
657 options: pythonfile and foldersort. Fixes [complete.org #29], and
658 for Debian, Closes: #155637.
659 * Added documentation for the above features.
660 * Even more resiliant in the face of invalid Date headers. Closes: #155994.

669 server's LIST response. Fixes [complete.org #32] and, for Debian,

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

700 offlineimap (3.2.1) unstable; urgency=low
702 * There is a new "connecting" event that will appear in all but the
703 Quiet UIs. It has a gray color in Blinkenlights. This event indicates
704 the the program is connecting to a remote server.
705 * Blinkenlights UI log window is now scrolled and has a new
706 config file option "bufferlines" to specify the size of the scroll
708 * The Blinkenlights window is now non-resizable when the log is disabled.
709 When the log is enabled, the window is resizable, and the changes in
710 size are reflected in the log widget. Therefore, the Bigger Log
711 and Smaller Log items can disappear, and the Log menu now becomes
712 a Show Log or a Hide Log menu option. No sub-menus necessary anymore.
713 This presents a much cleaner feel, more intuitive operation, and
715 * Fix for account name interpolation in dot warning from 3.2.0 from
717 * Backed out check for . in account names for now. Will put it back in
718 when we have a consensus on what exactly to do. Doubt that anyone
719 has a foldername that would conflict with Blinkenlights anyway.
720 * Fix reading the ui.Tk.Blinkenlights bufferlines option.

728 * New USER INTERFACES section in the manual.
729 * TTYUI isusable() now checks to see if stdout and stdin are TTYs.
730 * Added build-dependency on python2.2-dev. Closes: #154167.

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

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

766 * No longer doubles-up reference names for mailboxes. Closes: #153515.
767 * Noted new bug-tracking system in manual and rebuilt manual files.

779 * Now handles cases of not being able to get UID for an uploaded message
780 more gracefully. This could occur if the server doesn't support
781 SEARCH, can't find the message ID, or finds multiple message IDs.
783 * Now source is in Subversion. Make version.py log the Subversion

788 offlineimap (3.0.1) unstable; urgency=low
790 * Detabified the source.
791 * Added UI list to the manpage.
792 * Added -o (run only once) option with patch sent in by Martijn Pieters.
793 * Optimized folder/IMAP.py addmessagesflags() with new listjoin() in
794 imaputil. Now, send the server 1:5,7 instead of 1,2,3,4,5,7.
795 * Made folder/Maildir.py/deletemessage() more tolerant if a message
796 asked to be deleted already has been.
797 * In Base.py/copymessageto(), no longer bother calling getmessage()
798 unless a folder's storemessages() returns true. This will also help
799 with syncing to LocalStatus if the user deleted messages in the
800 Maildir since the cachemessagelist() was called.

804 offlineimap (3.0.0) unstable; urgency=low
806 * Introduced a new graphical user interface written with Tkinter.
807 It features a nice view of multi-threaded displays.
808 * The TTY user interface now also displays thread names.
809 * Program-wide, new threads are given descriptive names to aid in
810 debugging and status messages.
811 * Added new module offlineimap/ui/detect.py that is used to detect
812 which user interface to select for a given session. Its operation
813 is governed by the ui config option and the -u command-line option.
814 * Made IMAP folder addmessagesflags() resiliant to a server refusing
815 to return a full set of new message flags. Closes: #152587.
816 * Completely rewrote documentation. OfflineIMAP now has an
817 exhaustive manpage, which is really a manual. It is also shipped
818 in plain text, HTML, PDF, and PostScript formats.
819 * New command-line options:
820 -1 to force no multi-threaded operation
821 -u to force a particular UI
822 -a to specify which accounts to sync
824 -c to specify an alternate config file
825 * Added a workaround for UW IMAP problem wherein the server loses
826 uidvalidity whenever a folder is emptied. Now, the program
827 will not consider it a problem if uidvalidity is lost when a folder
828 and the local status cache are both completely empty, since we do
829 not really need to preserve uidvalidity in that case anyway.

837 Makes the code more robust; handles better with read-only folders;
838 and runs faster, especially for non-threaded useres, where it
839 may eliminate up to 2-3 commands per folder.
840 * Made sure IMAP folder savemessage() does a select. This was a possible
842 * Modified Maildir folder to unlink messages with T flag in
844 * My own box now syncs in 3 seconds.
845 * Optimized acquireconnection() to try to give a thread back the
846 connection that it last used, if possible.

858 * Added support for holdconnectionopen and keepalive. This feature
859 allows for an IMAP server connection(s) to be held open until
860 the next sync process, permitting faster restart times.
861 * Another try at read-only folder support. This is nasty because I
862 have no way to test it and imaplib's read-only support is weird.
863 * Closing out old bug; fixed in 1.0.2. Closes: #150803.
864 * Optimized algorithm so that a SELECT is never issued for folders
865 that contain no messages.

901 * Fixed a bug with not properly propogating foldersep changes.
902 Now, local folders and status folders properly use the foldersep
903 mechanism. This corrects a problem with Exchange servers.
904 * Wrote a major new thread montiring subsystem, defined a new
905 ExitNotifyThread. Handling of Ctrl-C now occurs within 1 second
906 rather than after the whole program terminates. Exceptions that
907 occur in a thread are now caught by the main thread and marshalled
908 over into the UI side of things for dispatch. The entire program will
909 now abort when one thread dies with an exception.

918 * Added the ability to exclude folders.
919 * If upgrading from 1.0.x, you will need to add maxsyncaccounts to the
920 general section and maxconnections to each account sections.
921 There is also a new folderfilter option.
922 You can find examples of all of these in the new offlineimap.conf
