215 * Fixed two potential obscure race conditions in folder/Maildir.py.

217 accesses per-module variables but does not have a lock. It may have
218 been possible for this to have been called in such a way that timeseq
219 was not properly updated.
220 + Condition 2 involved the call to gettimeseq(). Since the timeseq is
221 based on the system clock, we now use the time as reported inside
222 timeseq() rather than outside. This way, we can be assured that the
223 same value is in use both places.

300 * This is a 4.0 TRACK release, and may be unstable or in flux!
301 * Big news: OfflineIMAP can now sync two remote IMAP servers to each
302 other, with no need to write a Maildir at all.
303 * WARNING: the format of the configuration file *AND* the local
304 status area changes with this release!
305 * Major reworking of internal management of accounts. Previously, the
306 account defined a local Maildir and a remote IMAP server. Now, the
307 account is simply a connection between two repositories. For
308 traditional ones, an account basically specifies a refresh interval,
309 a Maildir repository, and an IMAP repository.
310 * Added a notion of a repository to the configuration file. Repositories
311 currently available are IMAP and Maildir. Combined with the new account
312 system, this lets the user define powerful combinations without
313 duplicating information.
314 * When uploading messages to an IMAP server, OfflineIMAP generates its
315 own X-OfflineIMAP header rather than trying to guess the new message UID
316 based on the Message-Id header. This leads to greater reliability when
317 uploading messages, especially when dealing with duplicate messages.
318 This change was required to permit reliable IMAP-to-IMAP syncing, but
319 helps with regular IMAP-to-Maildir syncing as well.
320 * Local status area under ~/.offlineimap revamped. It now contains
321 separate subdirectories for each account and repository, and they
322 contain UID validity information, UID mapping (for IMAP-to-IMAP
323 syncing). UID validity information is no longer stored in the Maildir
325 * New debug type: "thread" to debug multithreading.
326 * preauth tunnels no longer require remoteuser, remotepass, host,
327 or port in the configuration file.
328 * Logging for preauth tunnels is more sensible.
329 * Fixed a logic error for syncs with a reference that returns no folders.

365 * This is a 4.0 TRACK release, and may be unstable or in flux!
366 * Converted entire manual to DocBook SGML so it will be easier to
367 expand in the future. The HTML manual, also, looks far nicer now
369 * Fixed the Tk.VerboseUI -- small, silly error introduced in 3.99.6.
370 * Multiple performance and reliability enhancements to syncing
371 algorithms, as described below.
372 * The process of uploading new messages from local folders to the IMAP
373 server was not internally multi-threaded previously. Now it is.
374 This means that if you have a single folder with lots of new messages
375 locally, the processing time should be dramatically sped up. Moreover,
376 the process should be more reliable because we do not risk connections
378 * The process of synchronizing flags has been overhauled and optimized.
379 Previously, for each message where a flag (seen, replied, etc.) was
380 changed, we'd issue a separate command to the IMAP server to adjust
381 things. Now, we issue one command for each flag. In other words,
382 instead of seing 45 messages saying something like "Adding flag S to
383 message 1421", you now see one message saying "Adding flag S to 45
384 messages" -- and the interaction with the IMAP server may well be
385 almost 45 times faster on this. We will now issue at most four
386 commands per flag operation (add or remove) per folder, where before,
387 we may have issued as many as two per message. Should be a
388 large speedup in most cases, but a small slowdown in a few.
389 * Potentially increased the reliability of writing files to the Maildir.

395 * This a 4.0 TRACK release, and may be unstable or in flux!
396 * Completed work to make both graphical interfaces work
397 with a threaded Tcl/Tk Tkinter. A threaded Tcl/Tk actually makes
398 life MORE difficult for multi-threaded Python programs, argh.
399 * Now properly handles folder names that contain parenthesis. Used
400 patch from Kyler Laird in
401 http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=173895.
403 * Changed to a more account-centric behavior. The refresh time is now
404 a per-account variable. Implemented new account classes. User
405 interfaces must now be updated to take advantage of this.
406 *** NOTE *** THIS CHANGE BREAKS COMPATIBILITY WITH OLDER VERSIONS.
407 * New color console interface: Curses.Blinkenlights! Try it out!
409 * Due to possibly having one account sleep while another is reading a
410 password, and other tricky situations, support for nice updating and
411 cancelling of a sleep in TTY.TTYUI has been removed. (Sleep will
412 still work; there is just no way to cancel it early.)
414 However, this is not going to be a huge problem because the new Curses
415 Blinkenlights interface has this support, and does it a lot better than
416 TTY.TTYUI ever could have.
417 * Provided config file default for many more options. Closes: #168219.

455 session. This way, even unexpected and non-repeatable errors stand
456 a chance of getting a more detailed log.
457 * Handle uidvalidity file in an atomic fashion. CLoses: #165600.

461 * Certain servers may not always return the UID flag for new messages.
462 This causes an OfflineIMAP exception, though rerunning will fix it.

513 properly install it as offlineimap instead of offlineimap.py.
514 * Made sure executables use /usr/bin/env in bangpath.
515 * Font size for Blinkenlights interface is now configurable.

519 offlineimap (3.2.6) unstable; urgency=low
521 * Changed indentation in debian/control. Closes: #156327.
522 * Removed calls to folder object deletions. None have been implemented
524 * folder/Maildir.py: unlink throws OSError, not IOError; fixed.
525 Now handles message deleting race condition properly.

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

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

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

578 offlineimap (3.2.1) unstable; urgency=low
580 * There is a new "connecting" event that will appear in all but the
581 Quiet UIs. It has a gray color in Blinkenlights. This event indicates
582 the the program is connecting to a remote server.
583 * Blinkenlights UI log window is now scrolled and has a new
584 config file option "bufferlines" to specify the size of the scroll
586 * The Blinkenlights window is now non-resizable when the log is disabled.
587 When the log is enabled, the window is resizable, and the changes in
588 size are reflected in the log widget. Therefore, the Bigger Log
589 and Smaller Log items can disappear, and the Log menu now becomes
590 a Show Log or a Hide Log menu option. No sub-menus necessary anymore.
591 This presents a much cleaner feel, more intuitive operation, and
593 * Fix for account name interpolation in dot warning from 3.2.0 from
595 * Backed out check for . in account names for now. Will put it back in
596 when we have a consensus on what exactly to do. Doubt that anyone
597 has a foldername that would conflict with Blinkenlights anyway.
598 * Fix reading the ui.Tk.Blinkenlights bufferlines option.

604 * New BLINKENLIGHTS interface! Mesmerising, isn't it?
605 * New ui.Tk.Blinkenlights section in offlineimap.conf.
606 * New USER INTERFACES section in the manual.
607 * TTYUI isusable() now checks to see if stdout and stdin are TTYs.
608 * Added build-dependency on python2.2-dev. Closes: #154167.

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

627 offlineimap (3.1.0) unstable; urgency=low
629 * When uploading messages from a Maildir, now convert \r\n to \n in case
630 the message is stored weirdly. That way, everything is uniform.
631 Fixes [complete.org #11].
632 * Manual: added UW IMAPD example with references from docwhat@gerf.org.
633 * New UI modules: Noninteractive.Basic and Noninteractive.Quiet.
634 Fixes [complete.org #14].
635 * Added per-thread profiling support to aid in debugging.

639 offlineimap (3.0.3) unstable; urgency=low
641 * No longer throws an exception when updating messages with strange
642 Date headers; will just set IMAP Internaldate to the current date.
644 * No longer doubles-up reference names for mailboxes. Closes: #153515.
645 * Noted new bug-tracking system in manual and rebuilt manual files.
646 * Now stores incoming messages in 'cur' instead of 'new' if they have
647 the S flag. Closes: #152482.

651 offlineimap (3.0.2) unstable; urgency=low
653 * Fixed mailbox name recorder to use localfolder.getvisiblename() rather
654 than remotefolder.getvisiblename()
655 * Fixed remotepassfile option. Closes: #153119. Used 1-line patch from
657 * Now handles cases of not being able to get UID for an uploaded message
658 more gracefully. This could occur if the server doesn't support
659 SEARCH, can't find the message ID, or finds multiple message IDs.
661 * Now source is in Subversion. Make version.py log the Subversion

666 offlineimap (3.0.1) unstable; urgency=low
668 * Detabified the source.
669 * Added UI list to the manpage.
670 * Added -o (run only once) option with patch sent in by Martijn Pieters.
671 * Optimized folder/IMAP.py addmessagesflags() with new listjoin() in
672 imaputil. Now, send the server 1:5,7 instead of 1,2,3,4,5,7.
673 * Made folder/Maildir.py/deletemessage() more tolerant if a message
674 asked to be deleted already has been.
675 * In Base.py/copymessageto(), no longer bother calling getmessage()
676 unless a folder's storemessages() returns true. This will also help
677 with syncing to LocalStatus if the user deleted messages in the
678 Maildir since the cachemessagelist() was called.

682 offlineimap (3.0.0) unstable; urgency=low
684 * Introduced a new graphical user interface written with Tkinter.
685 It features a nice view of multi-threaded displays.
686 * The TTY user interface now also displays thread names.
687 * Program-wide, new threads are given descriptive names to aid in
688 debugging and status messages.
689 * Added new module offlineimap/ui/detect.py that is used to detect
690 which user interface to select for a given session. Its operation
691 is governed by the ui config option and the -u command-line option.
692 * Made IMAP folder addmessagesflags() resiliant to a server refusing
693 to return a full set of new message flags. Closes: #152587.
694 * Completely rewrote documentation. OfflineIMAP now has an
695 exhaustive manpage, which is really a manual. It is also shipped
696 in plain text, HTML, PDF, and PostScript formats.
697 * New command-line options:
698 -1 to force no multi-threaded operation
699 -u to force a particular UI
700 -a to specify which accounts to sync
702 -c to specify an alternate config file
703 * Added a workaround for UW IMAP problem wherein the server loses
704 uidvalidity whenever a folder is emptied. Now, the program
705 will not consider it a problem if uidvalidity is lost when a folder
706 and the local status cache are both completely empty, since we do
707 not really need to preserve uidvalidity in that case anyway.

712 offlineimap (2.0.8) unstable; urgency=low
714 * Modified the IMAP folder to use SELECT rather than STATUS more often.
715 Makes the code more robust; handles better with read-only folders;
716 and runs faster, especially for non-threaded useres, where it
717 may eliminate up to 2-3 commands per folder.
718 * Made sure IMAP folder savemessage() does a select. This was a possible
720 * Modified Maildir folder to unlink messages with T flag in
722 * My own box now syncs in 3 seconds.
723 * Optimized acquireconnection() to try to give a thread back the
724 connection that it last used, if possible.

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

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

793 * This code is now multithreaded. New config file options control the
794 behavior. This can make synchronizing several times faster.
795 * Fixed the STATUS call to be compatible with Exchange.
796 * Added the ability to exclude folders.
797 * If upgrading from 1.0.x, you will need to add maxsyncaccounts to the
798 general section and maxconnections to each account sections.
799 There is also a new folderfilter option.
800 You can find examples of all of these in the new offlineimap.conf
801 example file packaged with the distribution.
