Say it in the words Stalwart 0.16 answers to

Guests added to an event vanished on save and no invitation was ever
sent. Not a guard in the editor, and nothing the server complained
about: ihasmail addresses a participant the way RFC 8984 does, with
sendTo and email, and Stalwart 0.16 keeps that address under
calendarAddress. Handed the RFC's spelling it stores the event, drops
the entire participant map, and reports success. Six shapes were tried
against a live 0.16.19, down to sendTo and roles alone; all six were
dropped, and patching a participant onto an existing event fails
outright with "Patch operation failed".

The same disagreement runs through two more properties. The organizer is
organizerCalendarAddress, not replyTo. A recurrence is a single
recurrenceRule, not a recurrenceRules array — and that one Stalwart
refuses honestly, with invalidProperties, so no recurring event could be
created at all and existing ones showed no repeat.

So writes now use Stalwart's names and reads accept either, since a
mailbox may hold events written by other clients. The mock now refuses
what the real server refuses and drops what it drops: advertising the
RFC spelling is exactly how this reached a live server unnoticed, the
same way the capability-placement bug did.

Verified against 0.16.19: participants, organizer and rule all survive a
create, an update and a re-read, with the roles kept as sent.

- **Files on Stalwart before 0.16** — three things differ there, none of which the server reports as an error. (Confirmed live on 0.15.5 before the upgrade. The live instance now runs 0.16.19, where folder creation, upload, rename, move and delete were also exercised — but under the capability-placement bug below, which means what ran there was this older path against a 0.16 server, not the 0.16 path. Files now takes the 0.16 path and wants checking again on its own terms. The older path is kept for anyone still on 0.15.x and covered by `npm run dev:mock:legacy`.) `FileNode/query` masks its results to non-containers, so it returns files and **never folders**; `nodeType` does not exist, and sending it fails the create outright (a directory is instead a node with no file properties at all); and rights are only `mayRead`/`mayWrite`/`mayShare`, so the finer-grained `mayDelete`/`mayRename` the UI gates on are absent. ihasmail detects the older server by the absence of `urn:stalwart:jmap` — looked for in `primaryAccounts` and `accountCapabilities` as well as the session capabilities, since that is where 0.16 actually advertises it — lists the tree through `FileNode/get` instead of query, shapes creates accordingly, and widens the old rights. Upload, folder creation, listing, rename, move and delete are all confirmed live on 0.15.5 (2026-08-24).
- **Self-service credentials** — the **0.15.x REST path was confirmed live** against Stalwart 0.15.5 (2026-08-24): password change, app passwords, and enabling and disabling 2FA, on a real mailbox. The **0.16 registry path is confirmed live** against Stalwart 0.16.19 (2026-08-25): app passwords created and revoked, password changed, 2FA enabled and disabled, with the browser session surviving the switch to an app password. The mock enforces the same rules either way (current password required, password policy, a TOTP code on every request once 2FA is on, app passwords exempt from it). Password changes are refused by Stalwart for accounts backed by an external directory (LDAP/SQL/OIDC); the server's own message is shown when that happens.
- **Scheduled send needs one setting turned on, and says nothing when it is off.** Stalwart advertises the delay in the account's `urn:ietf:params:jmap:submission` capability — `maxDelayedSend: 2592000` (30 days) and `FUTURERELEASE` among its `submissionExtensions`, and note it is the *account* capability, not the session-level one, which is empty. But the MTA only honours a hold when `futureRelease` is set under the session's MTA extensions, and [that setting defaults to `false`](https://stalw.art/docs/ref/object/mta-extensions/). With it off, Stalwart takes the `HOLDUNTIL` parameter, skips the hold and sends the message immediately **without an error** — the capability still says thirty days. So set `futureRelease` (to the longest hold you want to allow) before relying on this; a value shorter than 30 days is fine, and a request past it is refused honestly, with a `forbiddenMailFrom` naming the limit. `npm run dev:mock:no-future-release` reproduces the silent-drop case. ihasmail asks for the delay the way JMAP requires — a `HOLDUNTIL` parameter on the envelope's `mailFrom`, since RFC 8621 makes `sendAt` read-only and server-derived — and files the held message in a **Scheduled** folder, because `onSuccessUpdateEmail` would otherwise drop it in Sent the moment the submission is created. Nothing moves it out when the hold expires, so ihasmail reconciles the folder on the way in: released messages to Sent, cancelled ones back to Drafts. Three fixes this depends on landed in **0.16.17**, below the live instance's 0.16.19: `HOLDUNTIL` taking RFC 3339 date-times again (0.16.16 had it wanting Unix timestamps), `EmailSubmission/query` on `undoStatus` agreeing with `/get` about held submissions, and `EmailSubmission/get` without `ids` iterating the right index. **Not yet exercised against the live server** — verified end to end against the mock only.
- **Stalwart 0.16 and RFC 8984 disagree about the calendar vocabulary, and the server only says so half the time.** A participant's address lives in `calendarAddress`, not RFC 8984's `sendTo`/`email`; the organizer is `organizerCalendarAddress`, not `replyTo`; and a recurrence is a single `recurrenceRule`, not a `recurrenceRules` array. Addressed the RFC's way, `CalendarEvent/set` **keeps the event and discards the whole participant map without an error** — guests disappeared on save and no invitation was ever sent, which is what [#26](https://github.com/LINUXexpert-org/ihasmail/issues/26) reported. The array form of the rule is refused honestly, with `invalidProperties`, so recurring events could not be created at all and existing ones showed no repeat ([#30](https://github.com/LINUXexpert-org/ihasmail/issues/30)). ihasmail now writes Stalwart's names and reads either, and the mock refuses what the real server refuses, since advertising the RFC spelling is precisely how this got as far as a live server. Verified against 0.16.19 on 2026-08-25: participants, organizer and rule all survive a create, an update, and a re-read. One more thing to know when reading this code: an expanded occurrence carries a `recurrenceId` but *no* rule of its own, and `baseEventId` is set on everything an expanded query returns — a one-off included, whose own id differs from its base — so neither is a test for recurrence.
- Recurring events: colour/category/edit/delete apply to the whole series (per-occurrence overrides aren't supported by the server yet).
- Editable date boxes are always Gregorian and in Latin digits, even for locales whose *display* uses another calendar or numbering system (`fa-IR`, `th-TH`, `ar-EG`) — they keep the locale's field order and separator, but a Buddhist-era year in a text box does not round-trip against the Gregorian calendar grid. Non-Gregorian calendar support is not implemented.
- The account locale is read from `x:AccountSettings/get`, whose permission the built-in user role has, falling back to `x:Account/get` (which needs the admin-only `sysAccountGet`). Both are Stalwart 0.16 methods: **on older servers neither is reachable** — they do not implement the registry and reject a request that so much as names the `urn:stalwart:jmap` capability — so there the locale still falls back to the browser's and can be chosen by hand. Confirmed live on 0.16.19 (2026-08-25), once the capability was looked for where Stalwart advertises it; a locale request that is merely refused no longer downgrades the detected generation.
