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

394 * This is a 4.0 TRACK release, and may be unstable or in flux!
395 * Big news: OfflineIMAP can now sync two remote IMAP servers to each
396 other, with no need to write a Maildir at all.
397 * WARNING: the format of the configuration file *AND* the local
398 status area changes with this release!
399 * Major reworking of internal management of accounts. Previously, the
400 account defined a local Maildir and a remote IMAP server. Now, the
401 account is simply a connection between two repositories. For
402 traditional ones, an account basically specifies a refresh interval,
403 a Maildir repository, and an IMAP repository.
404 * Added a notion of a repository to the configuration file. Repositories
405 currently available are IMAP and Maildir. Combined with the new account
406 system, this lets the user define powerful combinations without
407 duplicating information.
408 * When uploading messages to an IMAP server, OfflineIMAP generates its
409 own X-OfflineIMAP header rather than trying to guess the new message UID
410 based on the Message-Id header. This leads to greater reliability when
411 uploading messages, especially when dealing with duplicate messages.
412 This change was required to permit reliable IMAP-to-IMAP syncing, but
413 helps with regular IMAP-to-Maildir syncing as well.
414 * Local status area under ~/.offlineimap revamped. It now contains
415 separate subdirectories for each account and repository, and they
416 contain UID validity information, UID mapping (for IMAP-to-IMAP
417 syncing). UID validity information is no longer stored in the Maildir
419 * New debug type: "thread" to debug multithreading.
420 * preauth tunnels no longer require remoteuser, remotepass, host,
421 or port in the configuration file.
422 * Logging for preauth tunnels is more sensible.
423 * Fixed a logic error for syncs with a reference that returns no folders.

459 * This is a 4.0 TRACK release, and may be unstable or in flux!
460 * Converted entire manual to DocBook SGML so it will be easier to
461 expand in the future. The HTML manual, also, looks far nicer now
463 * Fixed the Tk.VerboseUI -- small, silly error introduced in 3.99.6.
464 * Multiple performance and reliability enhancements to syncing
465 algorithms, as described below.
466 * The process of uploading new messages from local folders to the IMAP
467 server was not internally multi-threaded previously. Now it is.
468 This means that if you have a single folder with lots of new messages
469 locally, the processing time should be dramatically sped up. Moreover,
470 the process should be more reliable because we do not risk connections
472 * The process of synchronizing flags has been overhauled and optimized.
473 Previously, for each message where a flag (seen, replied, etc.) was
474 changed, we'd issue a separate command to the IMAP server to adjust
475 things. Now, we issue one command for each flag. In other words,
476 instead of seing 45 messages saying something like "Adding flag S to
477 message 1421", you now see one message saying "Adding flag S to 45
478 messages" -- and the interaction with the IMAP server may well be
479 almost 45 times faster on this. We will now issue at most four
480 commands per flag operation (add or remove) per folder, where before,
481 we may have issued as many as two per message. Should be a
482 large speedup in most cases, but a small slowdown in a few.
483 * Potentially increased the reliability of writing files to the Maildir.

489 * This a 4.0 TRACK release, and may be unstable or in flux!
490 * Completed work to make both graphical interfaces work
491 with a threaded Tcl/Tk Tkinter. A threaded Tcl/Tk actually makes
492 life MORE difficult for multi-threaded Python programs, argh.
493 * Now properly handles folder names that contain parenthesis. Used
494 patch from Kyler Laird in
495 http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=173895.
497 * Changed to a more account-centric behavior. The refresh time is now
498 a per-account variable. Implemented new account classes. User
499 interfaces must now be updated to take advantage of this.
500 *** NOTE *** THIS CHANGE BREAKS COMPATIBILITY WITH OLDER VERSIONS.
501 * New color console interface: Curses.Blinkenlights! Try it out!
503 * Due to possibly having one account sleep while another is reading a
504 password, and other tricky situations, support for nice updating and
505 cancelling of a sleep in TTY.TTYUI has been removed. (Sleep will
506 still work; there is just no way to cancel it early.)
508 However, this is not going to be a huge problem because the new Curses
509 Blinkenlights interface has this support, and does it a lot better than
510 TTY.TTYUI ever could have.
511 * Provided config file default for many more options. Closes: #168219.
512 * New example file offlineimap.conf.minimal showing you how to get started
513 fast. It uses only 6 lines to set up an account.

527 * Added more debugging to the CRAM-MD5 authentication module.
528 * CRAM-MD5 *really* fixed this time. Thanks to MJ for the patch.
529 * Adding missing import os to imapserver.py. Thanks to John Wiegley

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

544 offlineimap (3.99.2) unstable; urgency=low
546 * Further attempts to fix imapsplit problems.
547 * When an exception occurs, OfflineIMAP will attempt to print the last
548 50 debug messages, whether or not debugging was enabled for this
549 session. This way, even unexpected and non-repeatable errors stand
550 a chance of getting a more detailed log.
551 * Handle uidvalidity file in an atomic fashion. CLoses: #165600.
552 * Supports CRAM-MD5 authentication. Fixes [complete.org #38], and for
553 Debian, Closes: #154165.
554 * Noted CRAM-MD5 support in the "CONFORMING TO" section of the manual.
555 * Certain servers may not always return the UID flag for new messages.
556 This causes an OfflineIMAP exception, though rerunning will fix it.
557 Now, OfflineIMAP will detect the condition and ignore the offending
558 messages (without an exception) until the next sync.

569 offlineimap (3.99.0) unstable; urgency=low
571 * The next few releases are adding features and reorganizing
572 code in preparation for 4.0.0.
573 * imaputil.py now logs information with IMAP debugging is enabled.
574 * Added folderfilter capability to mbnames recorder. You can now omit
575 specified folders from the mbnames output.
576 * Added a workaround to imaputil.py to deal with a bug in imaplib.py's
577 tuple when a response contains a literal in certain cases.
578 * Split out the code in bin/offlineimap into offlineimap/init.py.
579 Retaining bin/offlineimap as a skeletal piece only. Contains
580 about three lines of code now. This will make many things
581 easier, including debugging.
582 * Added library version check to bin/offlineimap and
584 * Moved __main__.ui to functions in UIBase: getglobalui() and
586 * Added license comments to some source files that were missing them.
587 * Moved some code from offlineimap/init.py to new file
588 offlineimap/syncmaster.py to help dileneate between code that
589 performs different functions.
590 * Moved threadexited from offlineimap/init.py to
591 offlineimap/threadutil.py.
592 * offlineimap.py is back to ease the use of OfflineIMAP in single-user

609 * Font size for Blinkenlights interface is now configurable.

626 * Now handles uploading messages without Message-Id headers.
628 * Applied patch from Tommi Virtanen that adds two new config file
629 options: pythonfile and foldersort. Fixes [complete.org #29], and
630 for Debian, Closes: #155637.
631 * Added documentation for the above features.
632 * Even more resiliant in the face of invalid Date headers. Closes: #155994.

641 server's LIST response. Fixes [complete.org #32] and, for Debian,

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

672 offlineimap (3.2.1) unstable; urgency=low
674 * There is a new "connecting" event that will appear in all but the
675 Quiet UIs. It has a gray color in Blinkenlights. This event indicates
676 the the program is connecting to a remote server.
677 * Blinkenlights UI log window is now scrolled and has a new
678 config file option "bufferlines" to specify the size of the scroll
680 * The Blinkenlights window is now non-resizable when the log is disabled.
681 When the log is enabled, the window is resizable, and the changes in
682 size are reflected in the log widget. Therefore, the Bigger Log
683 and Smaller Log items can disappear, and the Log menu now becomes
684 a Show Log or a Hide Log menu option. No sub-menus necessary anymore.
685 This presents a much cleaner feel, more intuitive operation, and
687 * Fix for account name interpolation in dot warning from 3.2.0 from
689 * Backed out check for . in account names for now. Will put it back in
690 when we have a consensus on what exactly to do. Doubt that anyone
691 has a foldername that would conflict with Blinkenlights anyway.
692 * Fix reading the ui.Tk.Blinkenlights bufferlines option.

700 * New USER INTERFACES section in the manual.
701 * TTYUI isusable() now checks to see if stdout and stdin are TTYs.

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

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

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

738 * No longer doubles-up reference names for mailboxes. Closes: #153515.
739 * Noted new bug-tracking system in manual and rebuilt manual files.

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

760 offlineimap (3.0.1) unstable; urgency=low
762 * Detabified the source.
763 * Added UI list to the manpage.
764 * Added -o (run only once) option with patch sent in by Martijn Pieters.
765 * Optimized folder/IMAP.py addmessagesflags() with new listjoin() in
766 imaputil. Now, send the server 1:5,7 instead of 1,2,3,4,5,7.
767 * Made folder/Maildir.py/deletemessage() more tolerant if a message
768 asked to be deleted already has been.
769 * In Base.py/copymessageto(), no longer bother calling getmessage()
770 unless a folder's storemessages() returns true. This will also help
771 with syncing to LocalStatus if the user deleted messages in the
772 Maildir since the cachemessagelist() was called.

776 offlineimap (3.0.0) unstable; urgency=low
778 * Introduced a new graphical user interface written with Tkinter.
779 It features a nice view of multi-threaded displays.
780 * The TTY user interface now also displays thread names.
781 * Program-wide, new threads are given descriptive names to aid in
782 debugging and status messages.
783 * Added new module offlineimap/ui/detect.py that is used to detect
784 which user interface to select for a given session. Its operation
785 is governed by the ui config option and the -u command-line option.
786 * Made IMAP folder addmessagesflags() resiliant to a server refusing
787 to return a full set of new message flags. Closes: #152587.
788 * Completely rewrote documentation. OfflineIMAP now has an
789 exhaustive manpage, which is really a manual. It is also shipped
790 in plain text, HTML, PDF, and PostScript formats.
791 * New command-line options:
792 -1 to force no multi-threaded operation
793 -u to force a particular UI
794 -a to specify which accounts to sync
796 -c to specify an alternate config file
797 * Added a workaround for UW IMAP problem wherein the server loses
798 uidvalidity whenever a folder is emptied. Now, the program
799 will not consider it a problem if uidvalidity is lost when a folder
800 and the local status cache are both completely empty, since we do
801 not really need to preserve uidvalidity in that case anyway.

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

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

873 * Fixed a bug with not properly propogating foldersep changes.
874 Now, local folders and status folders properly use the foldersep
875 mechanism. This corrects a problem with Exchange servers.
876 * Wrote a major new thread montiring subsystem, defined a new
877 ExitNotifyThread. Handling of Ctrl-C now occurs within 1 second
878 rather than after the whole program terminates. Exceptions that
879 occur in a thread are now caught by the main thread and marshalled
880 over into the UI side of things for dispatch. The entire program will
881 now abort when one thread dies with an exception.

890 * Added the ability to exclude folders.
891 * If upgrading from 1.0.x, you will need to add maxsyncaccounts to the
892 general section and maxconnections to each account sections.
893 There is also a new folderfilter option.
894 You can find examples of all of these in the new offlineimap.conf
895 example file packaged with the distribution.
