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

464 in OfflineIMAP and in mail servers that implement this poorly.

527 * Big news: OfflineIMAP can now sync two remote IMAP servers to each
528 other, with no need to write a Maildir at all.
529 * WARNING: the format of the configuration file *AND* the local
530 status area changes with this release!
531 * Major reworking of internal management of accounts. Previously, the
532 account defined a local Maildir and a remote IMAP server. Now, the
533 account is simply a connection between two repositories. For
534 traditional ones, an account basically specifies a refresh interval,
535 a Maildir repository, and an IMAP repository.
536 * Added a notion of a repository to the configuration file. Repositories
537 currently available are IMAP and Maildir. Combined with the new account
538 system, this lets the user define powerful combinations without
539 duplicating information.
540 * When uploading messages to an IMAP server, OfflineIMAP generates its
541 own X-OfflineIMAP header rather than trying to guess the new message UID
542 based on the Message-Id header. This leads to greater reliability when
543 uploading messages, especially when dealing with duplicate messages.
544 This change was required to permit reliable IMAP-to-IMAP syncing, but
545 helps with regular IMAP-to-Maildir syncing as well.
546 * Local status area under ~/.offlineimap revamped. It now contains
547 separate subdirectories for each account and repository, and they
548 contain UID validity information, UID mapping (for IMAP-to-IMAP
549 syncing). UID validity information is no longer stored in the Maildir
551 * New debug type: "thread" to debug multithreading.
552 * preauth tunnels no longer require remoteuser, remotepass, host,
553 or port in the configuration file.
554 * Logging for preauth tunnels is more sensible.
555 * Fixed a logic error for syncs with a reference that returns no folders.

589 offlineimap (3.99.7) unstable; urgency=low
591 * This is a 4.0 TRACK release, and may be unstable or in flux!
592 * Converted entire manual to DocBook SGML so it will be easier to
593 expand in the future. The HTML manual, also, looks far nicer now
595 * Fixed the Tk.VerboseUI -- small, silly error introduced in 3.99.6.
596 * Multiple performance and reliability enhancements to syncing
597 algorithms, as described below.
598 * The process of uploading new messages from local folders to the IMAP
599 server was not internally multi-threaded previously. Now it is.
600 This means that if you have a single folder with lots of new messages
601 locally, the processing time should be dramatically sped up. Moreover,
602 the process should be more reliable because we do not risk connections
604 * The process of synchronizing flags has been overhauled and optimized.
605 Previously, for each message where a flag (seen, replied, etc.) was
606 changed, we'd issue a separate command to the IMAP server to adjust
607 things. Now, we issue one command for each flag. In other words,
608 instead of seing 45 messages saying something like "Adding flag S to
609 message 1421", you now see one message saying "Adding flag S to 45
610 messages" -- and the interaction with the IMAP server may well be
611 almost 45 times faster on this. We will now issue at most four
612 commands per flag operation (add or remove) per folder, where before,
613 we may have issued as many as two per message. Should be a
614 large speedup in most cases, but a small slowdown in a few.
615 * Potentially increased the reliability of writing files to the Maildir.

619 offlineimap (3.99.6) unstable; urgency=low
621 * This a 4.0 TRACK release, and may be unstable or in flux!
622 * Completed work to make both graphical interfaces work
623 with a threaded Tcl/Tk Tkinter. A threaded Tcl/Tk actually makes
624 life MORE difficult for multi-threaded Python programs, argh.
625 * Now properly handles folder names that contain parenthesis. Used
626 patch from Kyler Laird in
627 http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=173895.
629 * Changed to a more account-centric behavior. The refresh time is now
630 a per-account variable. Implemented new account classes. User
631 interfaces must now be updated to take advantage of this.
632 *** NOTE *** THIS CHANGE BREAKS COMPATIBILITY WITH OLDER VERSIONS.
633 * New color console interface: Curses.Blinkenlights! Try it out!
635 * Due to possibly having one account sleep while another is reading a
636 password, and other tricky situations, support for nice updating and
637 cancelling of a sleep in TTY.TTYUI has been removed. (Sleep will
638 still work; there is just no way to cancel it early.)
640 However, this is not going to be a huge problem because the new Curses
641 Blinkenlights interface has this support, and does it a lot better than
642 TTY.TTYUI ever could have.
643 * Provided config file default for many more options. Closes: #168219.
644 * New example file offlineimap.conf.minimal showing you how to get started
645 fast. It uses only 6 lines to set up an account.

658 * Fixed setup.py installation instructions.
659 * Added more debugging to the CRAM-MD5 authentication module.
660 * CRAM-MD5 *really* fixed this time. Thanks to MJ for the patch.
661 * Adding missing import os to imapserver.py. Thanks to John Wiegley

666 offlineimap (3.99.3) unstable; urgency=low
668 * Moved password promting into imapserver.py. Passwords are now asked
669 for on-demand and typos will no longer crash the program (the user
670 will be re-prompted). Closes: #162672.
671 * Falls back to plain-text auth if CRAM-MD5 fails. Fixes [complete.org #42]
672 * Fixed CRAM-MD5 auth so it actually works now.

676 offlineimap (3.99.2) unstable; urgency=low
678 * Further attempts to fix imapsplit problems.
679 * When an exception occurs, OfflineIMAP will attempt to print the last
680 50 debug messages, whether or not debugging was enabled for this
681 session. This way, even unexpected and non-repeatable errors stand
682 a chance of getting a more detailed log.
683 * Handle uidvalidity file in an atomic fashion. CLoses: #165600.
684 * Supports CRAM-MD5 authentication. Fixes [complete.org #38], and for
685 Debian, Closes: #154165.
686 * Noted CRAM-MD5 support in the "CONFORMING TO" section of the manual.
687 * Certain servers may not always return the UID flag for new messages.
688 This causes an OfflineIMAP exception, though rerunning will fix it.
689 Now, OfflineIMAP will detect the condition and ignore the offending
690 messages (without an exception) until the next sync.

701 offlineimap (3.99.0) unstable; urgency=low
703 * The next few releases are adding features and reorganizing
704 code in preparation for 4.0.0.
705 * imaputil.py now logs information with IMAP debugging is enabled.
706 * Added folderfilter capability to mbnames recorder. You can now omit
707 specified folders from the mbnames output.
708 * Added a workaround to imaputil.py to deal with a bug in imaplib.py's
709 tuple when a response contains a literal in certain cases.
710 * Split out the code in bin/offlineimap into offlineimap/init.py.
711 Retaining bin/offlineimap as a skeletal piece only. Contains
712 about three lines of code now. This will make many things
713 easier, including debugging.
714 * Added library version check to bin/offlineimap and
716 * Moved __main__.ui to functions in UIBase: getglobalui() and
718 * Added license comments to some source files that were missing them.
719 * Moved some code from offlineimap/init.py to new file
720 offlineimap/syncmaster.py to help dileneate between code that
721 performs different functions.
722 * Moved threadexited from offlineimap/init.py to
723 offlineimap/threadutil.py.

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

804 offlineimap (3.2.1) unstable; urgency=low
806 * There is a new "connecting" event that will appear in all but the
807 Quiet UIs. It has a gray color in Blinkenlights. This event indicates
808 the the program is connecting to a remote server.
809 * Blinkenlights UI log window is now scrolled and has a new
810 config file option "bufferlines" to specify the size of the scroll
812 * The Blinkenlights window is now non-resizable when the log is disabled.
813 When the log is enabled, the window is resizable, and the changes in
814 size are reflected in the log widget. Therefore, the Bigger Log
815 and Smaller Log items can disappear, and the Log menu now becomes
816 a Show Log or a Hide Log menu option. No sub-menus necessary anymore.
817 This presents a much cleaner feel, more intuitive operation, and
819 * Fix for account name interpolation in dot warning from 3.2.0 from
821 * Backed out check for . in account names for now. Will put it back in
822 when we have a consensus on what exactly to do. Doubt that anyone
823 has a foldername that would conflict with Blinkenlights anyway.
824 * Fix reading the ui.Tk.Blinkenlights bufferlines option.

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

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

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

896 * Added -o (run only once) option with patch sent in by Martijn Pieters.
897 * Optimized folder/IMAP.py addmessagesflags() with new listjoin() in
898 imaputil. Now, send the server 1:5,7 instead of 1,2,3,4,5,7.
899 * Made folder/Maildir.py/deletemessage() more tolerant if a message
900 asked to be deleted already has been.
901 * In Base.py/copymessageto(), no longer bother calling getmessage()
902 unless a folder's storemessages() returns true. This will also help
903 with syncing to LocalStatus if the user deleted messages in the
904 Maildir since the cachemessagelist() was called.

908 offlineimap (3.0.0) unstable; urgency=low
910 * Introduced a new graphical user interface written with Tkinter.
911 It features a nice view of multi-threaded displays.
912 * The TTY user interface now also displays thread names.
913 * Program-wide, new threads are given descriptive names to aid in
914 debugging and status messages.
915 * Added new module offlineimap/ui/detect.py that is used to detect
916 which user interface to select for a given session. Its operation
917 is governed by the ui config option and the -u command-line option.
918 * Made IMAP folder addmessagesflags() resiliant to a server refusing
919 to return a full set of new message flags. Closes: #152587.
920 * Completely rewrote documentation. OfflineIMAP now has an
921 exhaustive manpage, which is really a manual. It is also shipped
922 in plain text, HTML, PDF, and PostScript formats.
923 * New command-line options:
924 -1 to force no multi-threaded operation
925 -u to force a particular UI
926 -a to specify which accounts to sync
928 -c to specify an alternate config file
929 * Added a workaround for UW IMAP problem wherein the server loses
930 uidvalidity whenever a folder is emptied. Now, the program
931 will not consider it a problem if uidvalidity is lost when a folder
932 and the local status cache are both completely empty, since we do
933 not really need to preserve uidvalidity in that case anyway.

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

1006 Now, local folders and status folders properly use the foldersep
1007 mechanism. This corrects a problem with Exchange servers.
1008 * Wrote a major new thread montiring subsystem, defined a new
1009 ExitNotifyThread. Handling of Ctrl-C now occurs within 1 second
1010 rather than after the whole program terminates. Exceptions that
1011 occur in a thread are now caught by the main thread and marshalled

1021 * Fixed the STATUS call to be compatible with Exchange.
1022 * Added the ability to exclude folders.
1023 * If upgrading from 1.0.x, you will need to add maxsyncaccounts to the
1024 general section and maxconnections to each account sections.
1025 There is also a new folderfilter option.
1026 You can find examples of all of these in the new offlineimap.conf
1027 example file packaged with the distribution.
1028 * The Debian package now properly installs the example offlineimap.conf
1030 * There is a new mailing list available. To join, send SUBSCRIBE

1055 * Made sure that LocalStatus does writing atomically. If the program
1056 is interrupted during save(), there will always be a complete copy of
