286 was not properly updated.
287 + Condition 2 involved the call to gettimeseq(). Since the timeseq is
288 based on the system clock, we now use the time as reported inside
289 timeseq() rather than outside. This way, we can be assured that the
290 same value is in use both places.

367 * This is a 4.0 TRACK release, and may be unstable or in flux!
368 * Big news: OfflineIMAP can now sync two remote IMAP servers to each
369 other, with no need to write a Maildir at all.
370 * WARNING: the format of the configuration file *AND* the local
371 status area changes with this release!
372 * Major reworking of internal management of accounts. Previously, the
373 account defined a local Maildir and a remote IMAP server. Now, the
374 account is simply a connection between two repositories. For
375 traditional ones, an account basically specifies a refresh interval,
376 a Maildir repository, and an IMAP repository.
377 * Added a notion of a repository to the configuration file. Repositories
378 currently available are IMAP and Maildir. Combined with the new account
379 system, this lets the user define powerful combinations without
380 duplicating information.
381 * When uploading messages to an IMAP server, OfflineIMAP generates its
382 own X-OfflineIMAP header rather than trying to guess the new message UID
383 based on the Message-Id header. This leads to greater reliability when
384 uploading messages, especially when dealing with duplicate messages.
385 This change was required to permit reliable IMAP-to-IMAP syncing, but
386 helps with regular IMAP-to-Maildir syncing as well.
387 * Local status area under ~/.offlineimap revamped. It now contains
388 separate subdirectories for each account and repository, and they
389 contain UID validity information, UID mapping (for IMAP-to-IMAP
390 syncing). UID validity information is no longer stored in the Maildir
392 * New debug type: "thread" to debug multithreading.
393 * preauth tunnels no longer require remoteuser, remotepass, host,
394 or port in the configuration file.
395 * Logging for preauth tunnels is more sensible.
396 * Fixed a logic error for syncs with a reference that returns no folders.

433 * Converted entire manual to DocBook SGML so it will be easier to
434 expand in the future. The HTML manual, also, looks far nicer now
436 * Fixed the Tk.VerboseUI -- small, silly error introduced in 3.99.6.
437 * Multiple performance and reliability enhancements to syncing
438 algorithms, as described below.
439 * The process of uploading new messages from local folders to the IMAP
440 server was not internally multi-threaded previously. Now it is.
441 This means that if you have a single folder with lots of new messages
442 locally, the processing time should be dramatically sped up. Moreover,
443 the process should be more reliable because we do not risk connections
445 * The process of synchronizing flags has been overhauled and optimized.
446 Previously, for each message where a flag (seen, replied, etc.) was
447 changed, we'd issue a separate command to the IMAP server to adjust
448 things. Now, we issue one command for each flag. In other words,
449 instead of seing 45 messages saying something like "Adding flag S to
450 message 1421", you now see one message saying "Adding flag S to 45
451 messages" -- and the interaction with the IMAP server may well be
452 almost 45 times faster on this. We will now issue at most four
453 commands per flag operation (add or remove) per folder, where before,
454 we may have issued as many as two per message. Should be a
455 large speedup in most cases, but a small slowdown in a few.
456 * Potentially increased the reliability of writing files to the Maildir.

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

513 * Fixed CRAM-MD5 auth so it actually works now.

517 offlineimap (3.99.2) unstable; urgency=low
519 * Further attempts to fix imapsplit problems.
520 * When an exception occurs, OfflineIMAP will attempt to print the last
521 50 debug messages, whether or not debugging was enabled for this
522 session. This way, even unexpected and non-repeatable errors stand
523 a chance of getting a more detailed log.
524 * Handle uidvalidity file in an atomic fashion. CLoses: #165600.
525 * Supports CRAM-MD5 authentication. Fixes [complete.org #38], and for
526 Debian, Closes: #154165.
527 * Noted CRAM-MD5 support in the "CONFORMING TO" section of the manual.
528 * Certain servers may not always return the UID flag for new messages.
529 This causes an OfflineIMAP exception, though rerunning will fix it.
530 Now, OfflineIMAP will detect the condition and ignore the offending
531 messages (without an exception) until the next sync.

542 offlineimap (3.99.0) unstable; urgency=low
544 * The next few releases are adding features and reorganizing
545 code in preparation for 4.0.0.
546 * imaputil.py now logs information with IMAP debugging is enabled.
547 * Added folderfilter capability to mbnames recorder. You can now omit
548 specified folders from the mbnames output.
549 * Added a workaround to imaputil.py to deal with a bug in imaplib.py's
550 tuple when a response contains a literal in certain cases.
551 * Split out the code in bin/offlineimap into offlineimap/init.py.
552 Retaining bin/offlineimap as a skeletal piece only. Contains
553 about three lines of code now. This will make many things
554 easier, including debugging.
555 * Added library version check to bin/offlineimap and
557 * Moved __main__.ui to functions in UIBase: getglobalui() and
559 * Added license comments to some source files that were missing them.
560 * Moved some code from offlineimap/init.py to new file
561 offlineimap/syncmaster.py to help dileneate between code that
562 performs different functions.
563 * Moved threadexited from offlineimap/init.py to
564 offlineimap/threadutil.py.
565 * offlineimap.py is back to ease the use of OfflineIMAP in single-user

582 * Font size for Blinkenlights interface is now configurable.

589 * Removed calls to folder object deletions. None have been implemented
591 * folder/Maildir.py: unlink throws OSError, not IOError; fixed.
592 Now handles message deleting race condition properly.

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

611 * When using nested folders, the Maildir repository handler now properly
612 deals with folders that are nested inside "noselect" folders -- ones
613 that do not actually contain messages and are not provided in the
614 server's LIST response. Fixes [complete.org #32] and, for Debian,

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

645 offlineimap (3.2.1) unstable; urgency=low
647 * There is a new "connecting" event that will appear in all but the
648 Quiet UIs. It has a gray color in Blinkenlights. This event indicates
649 the the program is connecting to a remote server.
650 * Blinkenlights UI log window is now scrolled and has a new
651 config file option "bufferlines" to specify the size of the scroll
653 * The Blinkenlights window is now non-resizable when the log is disabled.
654 When the log is enabled, the window is resizable, and the changes in
655 size are reflected in the log widget. Therefore, the Bigger Log
656 and Smaller Log items can disappear, and the Log menu now becomes
657 a Show Log or a Hide Log menu option. No sub-menus necessary anymore.
658 This presents a much cleaner feel, more intuitive operation, and
660 * Fix for account name interpolation in dot warning from 3.2.0 from
662 * Backed out check for . in account names for now. Will put it back in
663 when we have a consensus on what exactly to do. Doubt that anyone
664 has a foldername that would conflict with Blinkenlights anyway.
665 * Fix reading the ui.Tk.Blinkenlights bufferlines option.

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

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

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

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

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

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

733 offlineimap (3.0.1) unstable; urgency=low
735 * Detabified the source.
736 * Added UI list to the manpage.
737 * Added -o (run only once) option with patch sent in by Martijn Pieters.
738 * Optimized folder/IMAP.py addmessagesflags() with new listjoin() in
739 imaputil. Now, send the server 1:5,7 instead of 1,2,3,4,5,7.
740 * Made folder/Maildir.py/deletemessage() more tolerant if a message
741 asked to be deleted already has been.
742 * In Base.py/copymessageto(), no longer bother calling getmessage()
743 unless a folder's storemessages() returns true. This will also help
744 with syncing to LocalStatus if the user deleted messages in the
745 Maildir since the cachemessagelist() was called.

749 offlineimap (3.0.0) unstable; urgency=low
751 * Introduced a new graphical user interface written with Tkinter.
752 It features a nice view of multi-threaded displays.
753 * The TTY user interface now also displays thread names.
754 * Program-wide, new threads are given descriptive names to aid in
755 debugging and status messages.
756 * Added new module offlineimap/ui/detect.py that is used to detect
757 which user interface to select for a given session. Its operation
758 is governed by the ui config option and the -u command-line option.
759 * Made IMAP folder addmessagesflags() resiliant to a server refusing
760 to return a full set of new message flags. Closes: #152587.
761 * Completely rewrote documentation. OfflineIMAP now has an
762 exhaustive manpage, which is really a manual. It is also shipped
763 in plain text, HTML, PDF, and PostScript formats.
764 * New command-line options:
765 -1 to force no multi-threaded operation
766 -u to force a particular UI
767 -a to specify which accounts to sync
769 -c to specify an alternate config file
770 * Added a workaround for UW IMAP problem wherein the server loses
771 uidvalidity whenever a folder is emptied. Now, the program
772 will not consider it a problem if uidvalidity is lost when a folder
773 and the local status cache are both completely empty, since we do
774 not really need to preserve uidvalidity in that case anyway.

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

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

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

862 * Fixed the STATUS call to be compatible with Exchange.
863 * Added the ability to exclude folders.
864 * If upgrading from 1.0.x, you will need to add maxsyncaccounts to the
865 general section and maxconnections to each account sections.
866 There is also a new folderfilter option.
867 You can find examples of all of these in the new offlineimap.conf
868 example file packaged with the distribution.
869 * The Debian package now properly installs the example offlineimap.conf
