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

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

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

521 offlineimap (3.99.6) unstable; urgency=low
523 * This a 4.0 TRACK release, and may be unstable or in flux!
524 * Completed work to make both graphical interfaces work
525 with a threaded Tcl/Tk Tkinter. A threaded Tcl/Tk actually makes
526 life MORE difficult for multi-threaded Python programs, argh.
527 * Now properly handles folder names that contain parenthesis. Used
528 patch from Kyler Laird in
529 http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=173895.
531 * Changed to a more account-centric behavior. The refresh time is now
532 a per-account variable. Implemented new account classes. User
533 interfaces must now be updated to take advantage of this.
534 *** NOTE *** THIS CHANGE BREAKS COMPATIBILITY WITH OLDER VERSIONS.
535 * New color console interface: Curses.Blinkenlights! Try it out!
537 * Due to possibly having one account sleep while another is reading a
538 password, and other tricky situations, support for nice updating and
539 cancelling of a sleep in TTY.TTYUI has been removed. (Sleep will
540 still work; there is just no way to cancel it early.)
542 However, this is not going to be a huge problem because the new Curses
543 Blinkenlights interface has this support, and does it a lot better than
544 TTY.TTYUI ever could have.
545 * Provided config file default for many more options. Closes: #168219.
546 * New example file offlineimap.conf.minimal showing you how to get started
547 fast. It uses only 6 lines to set up an account.

561 * Added more debugging to the CRAM-MD5 authentication module.

571 for on-demand and typos will no longer crash the program (the user
572 will be re-prompted). Closes: #162672.
573 * Falls back to plain-text auth if CRAM-MD5 fails. Fixes [complete.org #42]
574 * Fixed CRAM-MD5 auth so it actually works now.

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

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

663 options: pythonfile and foldersort. Fixes [complete.org #29], and
664 for Debian, Closes: #155637.
665 * Added documentation for the above features.

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

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

742 * Modified imaputil.py and folder/Maildir.py to run faster. Eliminated
743 many regular expressions; pre-compiled many others.
744 * Fixed threadutil's exitnotifyloop to always handle threads in the order
745 they exited, rather than sometimes in the inverse order. This way,
746 make sure to handle thread's exception messages before a thread exited.
747 * Replaced imaplib.py's braindead readline() with a more efficient one.
748 * More optimizations to imaputil and folders for faster operation.
749 * These optimizations, all together, have resulted in OfflineIMAP
750 using approximately half the CPU time of previous versions, fixing

759 Fixes [complete.org #11].
760 * Manual: added UW IMAPD example with references from docwhat@gerf.org.

785 * Now handles cases of not being able to get UID for an uploaded message
786 more gracefully. This could occur if the server doesn't support
787 SEARCH, can't find the message ID, or finds multiple message IDs.

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

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

867 * Another try at read-only folder support. This is nasty because I
868 have no way to test it and imaplib's read-only support is weird.
869 * Closing out old bug; fixed in 1.0.2. Closes: #150803.

908 Now, local folders and status folders properly use the foldersep
909 mechanism. This corrects a problem with Exchange servers.
910 * Wrote a major new thread montiring subsystem, defined a new
911 ExitNotifyThread. Handling of Ctrl-C now occurs within 1 second
912 rather than after the whole program terminates. Exceptions that
913 occur in a thread are now caught by the main thread and marshalled
