354 + Condition 2 involved the call to gettimeseq(). Since the timeseq is
355 based on the system clock, we now use the time as reported inside
356 timeseq() rather than outside. This way, we can be assured that the
357 same value is in use both places.

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

668 * Applied patch from Tommi Virtanen that adds two new config file
669 options: pythonfile and foldersort. Fixes [complete.org #29], and
670 for Debian, Closes: #155637.
671 * Added documentation for the above features.

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

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

746 offlineimap (3.1.1) unstable; urgency=low
748 * Modified imaputil.py and folder/Maildir.py to run faster. Eliminated
749 many regular expressions; pre-compiled many others.
750 * Fixed threadutil's exitnotifyloop to always handle threads in the order
751 they exited, rather than sometimes in the inverse order. This way,
752 make sure to handle thread's exception messages before a thread exited.
753 * Replaced imaplib.py's braindead readline() with a more efficient one.
754 * More optimizations to imaputil and folders for faster operation.
755 * These optimizations, all together, have resulted in OfflineIMAP
756 using approximately half the CPU time of previous versions, fixing

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

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

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

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

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

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