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

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

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

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

480 a chance of getting a more detailed log.
481 * Handle uidvalidity file in an atomic fashion. CLoses: #165600.

509 Retaining bin/offlineimap as a skeletal piece only. Contains
510 about three lines of code now. This will make many things
511 easier, including debugging.
512 * Added library version check to bin/offlineimap and
514 * Moved __main__.ui to functions in UIBase: getglobalui() and
516 * Added license comments to some source files that were missing them.
517 * Moved some code from offlineimap/init.py to new file
518 offlineimap/syncmaster.py to help dileneate between code that
519 performs different functions.
520 * Moved threadexited from offlineimap/init.py to
521 offlineimap/threadutil.py.
522 * offlineimap.py is back to ease the use of OfflineIMAP in single-user

538 * Made sure executables use /usr/bin/env in bangpath.
539 * Font size for Blinkenlights interface is now configurable.

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

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

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

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

602 offlineimap (3.2.1) unstable; urgency=low
604 * There is a new "connecting" event that will appear in all but the
605 Quiet UIs. It has a gray color in Blinkenlights. This event indicates
606 the the program is connecting to a remote server.
607 * Blinkenlights UI log window is now scrolled and has a new
608 config file option "bufferlines" to specify the size of the scroll
610 * The Blinkenlights window is now non-resizable when the log is disabled.
611 When the log is enabled, the window is resizable, and the changes in
612 size are reflected in the log widget. Therefore, the Bigger Log
613 and Smaller Log items can disappear, and the Log menu now becomes
614 a Show Log or a Hide Log menu option. No sub-menus necessary anymore.
615 This presents a much cleaner feel, more intuitive operation, and
617 * Fix for account name interpolation in dot warning from 3.2.0 from
619 * Backed out check for . in account names for now. Will put it back in
620 when we have a consensus on what exactly to do. Doubt that anyone
621 has a foldername that would conflict with Blinkenlights anyway.
622 * Fix reading the ui.Tk.Blinkenlights bufferlines option.

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

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

654 the message is stored weirdly. That way, everything is uniform.
655 Fixes [complete.org #11].
656 * Manual: added UW IMAPD example with references from docwhat@gerf.org.

658 Fixes [complete.org #14].
659 * Added per-thread profiling support to aid in debugging.

668 * No longer doubles-up reference names for mailboxes. Closes: #153515.
669 * Noted new bug-tracking system in manual and rebuilt manual files.
670 * Now stores incoming messages in 'cur' instead of 'new' if they have
671 the S flag. Closes: #152482.

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

690 offlineimap (3.0.1) unstable; urgency=low
692 * Detabified the source.
693 * Added UI list to the manpage.
694 * Added -o (run only once) option with patch sent in by Martijn Pieters.
695 * Optimized folder/IMAP.py addmessagesflags() with new listjoin() in
696 imaputil. Now, send the server 1:5,7 instead of 1,2,3,4,5,7.
697 * Made folder/Maildir.py/deletemessage() more tolerant if a message
698 asked to be deleted already has been.
699 * In Base.py/copymessageto(), no longer bother calling getmessage()
700 unless a folder's storemessages() returns true. This will also help
701 with syncing to LocalStatus if the user deleted messages in the
702 Maildir since the cachemessagelist() was called.

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

738 * Modified the IMAP folder to use SELECT rather than STATUS more often.
739 Makes the code more robust; handles better with read-only folders;
740 and runs faster, especially for non-threaded useres, where it
741 may eliminate up to 2-3 commands per folder.
742 * Made sure IMAP folder savemessage() does a select. This was a possible
744 * Modified Maildir folder to unlink messages with T flag in
746 * My own box now syncs in 3 seconds.
747 * Optimized acquireconnection() to try to give a thread back the
748 connection that it last used, if possible.

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

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

818 behavior. This can make synchronizing several times faster.
819 * Fixed the STATUS call to be compatible with Exchange.
820 * Added the ability to exclude folders.
821 * If upgrading from 1.0.x, you will need to add maxsyncaccounts to the
822 general section and maxconnections to each account sections.
823 There is also a new folderfilter option.
824 You can find examples of all of these in the new offlineimap.conf
825 example file packaged with the distribution.
