jcoffey-dev 95395200a3 Let the contact list be resized, and give the contact the rest of the page
The contacts grid still had three columns from when the address books sat
inside the view: 220px for them, 280-360px for the list, the rest for the
contact. The books moved to the app's left pane in 350f4f4 and the grid
never followed, so the list was squeezed into the books' 220px, truncating
names, the contact was held to 360px, and the remaining width sat empty.

It is two columns now, with the same splitter as the message list between
them: drag between 240px and the width that leaves 360px for the contact,
arrow keys move it, double-click puts it back to 320px. The width is a
device setting beside the mail list's, so it is kept by a device marked as
your own and never synced. The splitter is hidden where contacts show one
pane at a time. The unused .contacts-books rules are gone.

"Resize contact list" is in all nine catalogues.

jcoffey-dev abb07acc80 Let the sidebar be resized by dragging its edge
The sidebar's right edge is now a splitter, like the one between the
message list and the reading pane: drag it between 240 and 480px, move it
with the arrow keys, double-click to put it back. The width is a device
setting, and stays null until someone drags, so a width set in the
reader's own CSS through --sidebar-w is kept until they choose otherwise.
Hidden on a phone, where the sidebar is a drawer, and while collapsed.

Arrow keys on either splitter moved the pane and never saved it: the
keyboard path called onResize without onEnd. It ends each key press now,
and both views keep the in-progress size in a ref as well as state, so
the end reads the value set in the same tick.

The message-list splitter's accessible name was an untranslated literal.
It goes through translate() now, and it and the sidebar's new name are in
all nine catalogues.

jcoffey-dev 520de85d12 Take vitest to 4.1.11, and stop two suites leaking their spies
GHSA-82fw-gwwq-j7x9 -- arbitrary file read through @vitest/mocker's
redirect mock -- has no fix in the 3.x line. The patched versions are
4.1.11 and 5.0.0-rc.2, so clearing it means the major. vite stays at
6.4.3: vitest 4 accepts ^6, and nothing outside devDependencies moves.

The bump surfaced a bug of ours rather than one of vitest's. vi.spyOn
now hands back the spy already installed on a method instead of wrapping
it in a fresh one, so a spy installed in beforeEach keeps its call count
across tests. compose-from-share expected two uploads and saw three: its
own two, plus the one from the test before it. The assertion was only
ever passing because each test happened to get a new spy.

Both suites now restore between tests, which is what the other five
spying suites already do. webpush had the same leak with no assertion
close enough to catch it.

jcoffey-dev 82470e8db0 Be somewhere a phone can share to
ihasmail could hand a file to the share sheet as of #306, and was still
not in it. Share a photo from the gallery, a link from the browser or a
document from a file manager and ihasmail was not among the places it
could go, which is the one piece of operating-system integration a mail
app is expected to have.

A share is a POST that navigates, and there is nothing on this side that
can answer one: the app is a client-side router with no endpoint at that
address, and the server behind it would need a route that understood the
composer. So the service worker intercepts it, takes the form body, puts
the files and text in its cache, and redirects to the app -- which finds
them on start and opens a draft holding them. The subject is the shared
title, the text and the link become the body, and files are attached and
begin uploading. Nothing is addressed: a share says what to send, never
who to.

The body is pushed in above the signature rather than passed to open(),
because open() only fits a signature when it is given no body at all --
the obvious version drops the signature from every message that started
as a share, and nothing about the draft looks wrong afterwards.

Collected on every start rather than when the launch URL says so. A share
to a signed-out ihasmail lands on the sign-in page, and there is no
account to attach to until it is done, so the payload has to outlive a
redirect and a login -- which the query string does not. What that costs
is a stash nobody came back for, so it carries a timestamp and expires
after ten minutes.

`accept` names wildcard families and explicit types and extensions both.
A mail client attaches anything, but wildcards are not in the
specification and operating systems differ over which form they match on,
so the explicit list is what holds if the families are ignored.

The cache name the worker and the app have to agree on now has one home
on the app side. It was written out twice, and a drift would not fail --
a push verification would simply never complete and a share would arrive
at an empty composer.

One case is deliberately left to fail loudly: an app still installed
whose worker has been cleared away POSTs to the server, which answers
405. A server route would trade a plain error for a silent nothing, and
the payload is gone in both -- it only ever existed in that request body.

Verified by test, not on a device: Android is the only place this exists
at all, and the extension driving Chrome is not connected here. The
handoff is pinned from the tab's side against a cache shaped exactly as
the worker leaves it, since the two files never see each other.

jcoffey-dev 8173e22ccb Update a re-imported event rather than skipping it
Contacts and calendars disagreed on a re-import: a vCard or LDIF entry
whose identity a book already held overwrote the card there (#242, #274),
while an event whose UID a calendar held was counted and thrown away
(#222). The asymmetry was never decided -- it was where each half stopped.

Decided on #279: calendars update too, with two properties held back.
`participants` carries every attendee's accepted/declined and
`recurrenceOverrides` holds every "just this Wednesday" edit made here.
Both are decisions taken after the file was written, and a file that
mentions them at all describes them as they were at export, so writing
either one over would destroy work silently and return no error. A
corrected export now fixes the time, the title and the location, and
leaves who said yes alone. `uid` is held back with them: it is what the
two were matched on, so it is already equal.

The scan returns uid -> id rather than a set of UIDs, since updating
needs something to address, and creates and updates now share one
`maxObjectsInSet` budget the way contacts' `writeCards` does -- 300 new
and 300 changed batched separately would be two calls of 300, neither
over a ceiling of 500 and both refused. Counts become created/updated,
reported as the contacts import reports them.

Still no scheduling messages, on an update as much as on a create. That
is a real cost -- an event a re-import moves is moved here and nowhere
else -- and it is the lesser one: an import is not the place to start
mailing a room full of people who never asked for it.

Driven against the mock end to end: a second file with the same UID
updated the event in place, took the file's title, start and location,
and left an accepted RSVP and a per-occurrence override untouched even
though the file carried participants of its own.

jcoffey-dev 2464c9655f Let the theme be forced onto mail that styles itself
Appearance gained "Apply the theme to messages too" some time ago, and it
themes an HTML message only when the message brings no colours of its own.
That predicate is the right default and it almost never passes: one
`color:#FFFFFF` on one button label opts a whole message out, so in real
mail — receipts, shipping notices, anything from a template — the switch
did nothing at all and the reader kept a bright white card on a dark UI.

A second switch, off by default and only meaningful with the first on,
forces the palette over the sender's colours. It cannot be done perfectly,
which is why it is a separate, explicit choice: the same bargain a
dark-reader extension makes.

What it does is tell two kinds of colour apart. A *sheet* the design sits
on — the white 600px wrapper — is neutralised, and a *painted surface* —
a call to action, a footer banner — is kept whole so its label stays
legible on it. Relative luminance decides, at 0.5: white wrappers sit at
1.0, a blue button near 0.09. Only the painted ones are marked, with
data-ihm-keep, and one rule in EMAIL_BASE_CSS neutralises everything else.

Nothing the sender wrote is removed, so the switch is reversible, colours
arriving from a <style> block are covered as well as inline ones, and
print still pins the tokens to ink on white.

The mock grew the message this is about: an outer wrapper on
bgcolor="#ffffff", a <style> block, a coloured button, a grey footer.
Without one, neither the bug nor the fix could be seen.

Verified in a browser against the mock: with only the first switch on the
card is still white; with both, the wrapper computes to transparent, body
text follows the theme, and the button keeps white-on-blue. Two surfaces
marked, which are the two the message paints.

jcoffey-dev c84f190f76 Check S/MIME signatures, and remember who signed
A signed message now says whether that holds up, as it is read. This is
verification only: nothing here signs, encrypts or decrypts, and the
private-key question that blocks those is untouched. Verifying needed
none of it, because the certificate travels inside the message -- which
is why this is the half that could be built.

What it checks. For multipart/signed carrying PKCS#7, the exact bytes of
the signed part -- headers included, canonicalised to CRLF -- are hashed
against the messageDigest attribute, and the signature over the signed
attributes is verified with WebCrypto against the certificate inside the
message. RSA PKCS#1 v1.5 and ECDSA over P-256/384/521, with SHA-256, 384
or 512.

The trust model is the design, and it is deliberately small. A browser
has no system trust store, and the certificate arrives inside the
message, so anyone can self-sign as anyone: on its own a good signature
shows only that the sender held the key they attached. So the word
"verified" is never rendered, and the reassuring case is not the loud
one. What carries the weight is remembering -- the first signed message
from an address pins its fingerprint, later ones are compared, and a
signer that changed is reported with both names and told to check by
another route. Trust on first use, no certificate authority anywhere.

The pins live in the account's settings rather than the browser: one
that only a single device knew would greet the same correspondent as new
everywhere else, which is how people are trained to click past the one
warning that matters. A pin records the message that created it, so the
message that established a signer keeps saying so instead of appearing
to be corroborated by itself -- without that, the very first signed
message anybody receives reads as "the same signer as before", where
before is itself. A changed, mismatched or expired signer is never
pinned, since writing the anomaly into the baseline makes every later
message agree with it.

Three things are declined rather than attempted, and all three say
"could not check" rather than "does not check out", because ignorance
and an accusation are different claims:

  - OpenPGP, by name. The signature carries no key and there is nowhere
    to get the sender's: x:PublicKey is the account's OWN registry, and
    a keyserver or WKD lookup would tell a third party who you
    correspond with -- the leak the image proxy exists to close.
  - SHA-1. Not forgeable in practice today, still not something to put a
    tick beside.
  - RSA-PSS, whose salt length lives in parameters this does not read.
    Guessing wrong would report a good signature as bad.

Nothing validates a chain: no CA bundle is shipped and revocation is not
checked. "Issued by" reports what the certificate claims, and a
self-signed one claims itself.

The DER, CMS, X.509 and MIME readers are hand-written and deliberately
narrow -- no new dependency, and the whole verifier is a lazily imported
8.6 kB chunk that a reader of unsigned mail never downloads. The one
place this is easy to get quietly wrong has its own function and its own
test: signed attributes are signed as a SET OF, not as the [0] IMPLICIT
they arrive as, and hashing the message instead would make every
signature "pass".

Tested against real `openssl smime -sign` output rather than hand-built
fixtures -- RSA, ECDSA, a tampered copy, and a valid signature by a
certificate for somebody else -- because a signed message written by
hand only agrees with whatever its author believed the format to be.
Also driven in a browser against the mock, which now serves three real
signed messages so every branch of the banner is reachable.

Translations: 34 new strings in all nine catalogues, 306 entries.
Falling back to English is unchanged at 24 per language.

jcoffey-dev cee107d948 Select contacts, and empty an address book
Raised on #174 as the other half of a migration -- import, notice
something is wrong, empty the book, correct the export, import again --
and tracked as #277.

The gap turned out to be wider than the ask. Contacts had no multi-select
at all: the only delete in the module was the cross on a single card's
pane, one card and one confirmation at a time. `destroyCards` has taken a
list and batched it against maxObjectsInSet since #218, and nothing in
the UI ever handed it more than one id. So "empty this address book" was
missing, and so was "delete these fourteen".

The list now has checkboxes, on hover the way the message list's are, and
always on a touchscreen where there is no hover to reveal them.
Shift-click takes the run between two rows. The search box gives way to a
selection bar rather than sitting beside it, because what the count
promises is what the search left on screen. A selection is cleared when
the book being shown changes, since carrying it across would leave a
count describing rows that are no longer there and a Delete aimed at
them.

Emptying a book is in the book's own menu, beside the import and export
that moved there in #226, and separate from Delete, which takes the book
with it. A default book cannot be deleted and can perfectly well be
emptied, which is most of the reason it is its own entry.

The part that is not a deletion, and the reason this is not one destroy
over everything in the book: a card filed in two books belongs to both,
and `ContactCard/set destroy` takes it away from both at once. Emptying
one book must not empty another, so a card with a second home is patched
out of this one and left alone. That is reported separately afterwards,
because it would otherwise look like contacts that refused to go.

`destroyCards` now answers with what the server confirmed rather than
throwing on the first refusal. A refusal that took half a selection with
it still deleted the other half, and an error saying only that it failed
sends somebody looking for contacts that are already gone. Both callers
report the count and the reason apart.

Emptying a shared book is deliberately not offered: the cards live in the
owner's account and this client has no path to write there.

One bug found by driving the built app rather than by any test, and worth
recording because of where it hid. The range a shift-click covers was
measured inside the `setPicked` updater -- which React runs when it gets
round to rendering, by which time the anchor ref has already been moved
to the row that *ended* the range. Every shift-click selected exactly one
row, and every store assertion still passed, because nothing was wrong
below the component. The anchor is read before the updater now, and the
contacts view has its first component tests: ten of them, six of which
fail if the measurement moves back inside.

Twelve new strings, in all nine catalogues, so nothing new falls back to
English.

jcoffey-dev 029f079094 Ask the folder, not just the identity list, whether a message was mine
Replying to a thread whose last message I sent addressed the reply to me:
Reply put my own address in To, and Reply all put me in To with everyone
I had actually written to demoted to Cc. Following up on your own last
message is an ordinary thing to do, and this made it useless.

There was already a guard for exactly this, and the guard was sound. What
it rested on was not. It asked whether an address was in the identity
list, and that question has a wrong answer in more situations than it has
a right one:

- the list is empty until identities load;
- an alias or a shared mailbox is not in it at all;
- it compared lowercased strings with `includes` where the rest of the
  codebase uses `sameAddress`, so an identity address stored with
  whitespace was enough to break it;
- the check ran on the address the reply was about to go to rather than
  on the sender, so a message of mine carrying a Reply-To skipped it
  entirely and my reply went to my own desk;
- and the Reply all branch never filtered my own address out of To, though
  the Reply branch did.

Every one of those failed silently, which is why five of them accumulated.

So the folder is asked first: a message in Sent is mine whatever address
it went out as, and `mailboxIds` is already fetched in LIST_PROPS with
roleId("sent") on the mail store, so this costs no request. The identity
list stays as a second opinion, now compared with `sameAddress`, and the
whole test keys off the sender rather than off the computed recipient.

Two cases remain unanswerable and are commented rather than papered over:
a message from an unlisted alias that is not in Sent either, and any
message at all when identities failed to load and it is not in Sent.
Neither signal exists. Both are far narrower than what was broken.

Reply addressing had no tests at all, which is how a guard this
load-bearing came to be wrong five ways at once. Fifteen now, seven of
which fail against the old code.

jcoffey-dev b4248a6661 Match an LDIF re-import on the entry's dn
Reported again by the submitter's colleague at LINET after #223 was
closed: duplicate checking was implemented for vCard and never for LDIF,
so re-importing an address book still leaves a second copy of everything.
That was deliberate at the time -- the matching key was an open question
I did not want to answer alone -- but the answer had already been given
on #174 and I closed the issue without acting on it.

The answer, in the submitter's words: an attribute that *can* change is
fine, because it will not have changed between two imports minutes apart.
An import is not a sync. That makes the `dn` usable -- it is the only
identity the file carries, and Mozilla's schema defines no UID -- and it
needs no guessing at all, unlike the name-plus-email fallback I had been
weighing.

So `uidFromDn` derives a namespaced, stable uid from the distinguished
name, normalised for the case and spacing two exports of one directory
differ in. A card the book already holds under that uid is updated rather
than duplicated, merged the way the vCard import merges: what the file
carries wins, what it does not mention is left alone. Reported as created
and updated, which is the pair that was asked for.

Three things worth knowing:

Matching is per address book, so two customer directories that each hold
a `cn=John Smith` stay two people as long as they are filed separately.
Imported into one book they would merge, which is the one way this can be
wrong and the reason the escape hatch is worth naming.

The look-alike count stays, and now means something narrower: entries
that `dn` matching could not catch -- one whose `dn` moved between
exports, and anything imported before there was a `dn` to match on. Those
are still only counted, never merged.

A file holding two entries under one `dn` is malformed, since a directory
cannot, and now becomes one card instead of two sharing an identity.

FEATURES gains the re-import behaviour for both formats; it documented
neither.

jcoffey-dev be088ed78d Third pass: the strings libraries build and views render raw
A sweep of lib/ and store/ for user-facing English, after the views were done.
The pattern here is the one #248 found: a module returns an English sentence
and the view renders it without asking for a translation.

Scheduled send was entirely untranslated. The four presets -- Later today,
Tomorrow morning, Tomorrow afternoon, Monday morning -- were rendered raw, and
scheduleError() returned three English sentences straight to the picker.
describeSpan() built "30 days" by appending an "s" unless the count was one,
which is English grammar written into the code: it produces the right German
only by the two languages happening to agree, and Russian needs three forms.
It is plural() now. scheduleError translates in place rather than returning a
key, because it composes a sentence around that span.

Read receipts: refusalText() returns five explanations, all rendered raw in
MessageView, and the offered case was a template literal -- "Requested, to
x@y. Never sent automatically." -- with the address concatenated in. It takes
a placeholder now, so the sentence can be reordered.

Compose: the sending toast and its Undo, the Open draft action, the two
attachment failures, and three thrown errors that surface to the reader as
toasts.

Two swipe labels, Add star and Remove star, are rendered through
t(desc.label) and have never been in any catalogue -- the coverage scan that
found the other 176 only looked at t("literal") sites, so labels reaching t()
through a variable were invisible to it. Every such table is now enumerated
and all 61 values checked: these two were the only ones missing.

17 strings and 3 plural forms are new and land with each language.

Verified: typecheck clean, 1000 tests pass.

jcoffey-dev 9f4bd65fd5 Update a contact on re-import rather than skipping it
#228 skipped a vCard whose UID the book already held. The reporter asked for
the opposite on #174 and he is right: the reason to import a file a second
time is usually that the first one was not right, so skipping means a
corrected export corrects nothing.

A merge, not a replacement. Properties the file carries overwrite what is
here; properties it does not mention are left alone, so a phone number added
in ihasmail after the first import survives a re-import of the original file.
The cost is that a field genuinely deleted at the source stays here, which is
the better way to be wrong -- the other way round loses work nobody asked to
lose. Worth confirming with him rather than assuming.

`addressBookIds` is left off the patch. The card is already in this book, so
saying it again says nothing, and saying it on a card that is also in another
book would move it.

Creates and updates now share one batch budget. Stalwart counts every object
in a /set together, so batching the halves separately would send 300 new and
300 changed as two calls of 300 and be refused for a limit of 500 that neither
half exceeds.

LDIF is untouched and still reports look-alikes without acting on them, since
what it should match on is the question still open on #223. Both imports keep
one answer shape so a caller need not know which it called; LDIF's `updated`
is always 0, which is the honest number rather than a missing field.

The message a vCard attached to a message shows changes with it: the newer
copy now wins instead of being dropped, so it says the contact was brought up
to date rather than that nothing was added.

jcoffey-dev 9622875659 Say how much an LDIF re-import duplicated, without acting on it
The half of #223 that can move while the matching question is still open.

Mozilla's schema defines no UID, so the import invents one and a re-import
duplicates everything. Whether to guess an identity from a name and an address
instead is the reporter's call and he has not made it -- but the harm that was
actually reported was confusion rather than duplication: somebody imports a
file twice and cannot tell what happened.

So the import now counts how many of the entries look like contacts the book
already held, and says so in a second message. Every card is still imported.
Nothing is skipped and nothing is merged, which is the point: counting is a
different act from matching, and it takes no decision away from the person who
still owes us one.

The likeness key is name plus one address, and it is wrong in both directions
by design -- two colleagues sharing a name and an alias collapse, somebody
whose address changed since the last export looks like a stranger. That is
tolerable for a number on a toast and would not be tolerable for a merge,
which is exactly why the number is all it does.

The scan the vCard import already makes for UIDs now collects names and
addresses on the same request, so this costs no extra round trip. It is read
before anything is created, so a file that repeats a person twice counts as
two new cards rather than as a duplicate of itself.

If the answer comes back "match on name and email", the matching is written
and becomes a skip instead of a count.

jcoffey-dev c31a653a04 Apply installation policy changes once each, per account
The last third of #207, and the only part that remembers anything.

An admin turns a setting on for people who are already here -- which a default
cannot do, since a default only seeds an account that has none -- and readers
may still turn it back off afterwards, which enforcement does not allow. The
difference between the two is entirely in the remembering.

Each change carries its own version, and an account stores the ones it has had
in its own settings file. Ids rather than a high-water mark, so a change dated
earlier than one already applied is not silently skipped -- the reporter's
analogy is a schema migration, and this is that shape.

Per account rather than per device, because ihasmail's settings are not
browser-local: they live in a file in the reader's own JMAP Files, with the
browser holding a cache. Signing in on a phone does not apply everything a
second time.

A change reaches somebody who had already decided otherwise. That is intended
and confirmed on the issue: the point is to reach everybody who is already
here. It is applied once, and their next decision sticks.

One `update` for however many are pending, since each would otherwise push a
settings file of its own. Enforced values still win, being applied after. A
change whose settings this build does not have at all is dropped rather than
recorded, or it would never run on the ihasmail that does have them.

The reader is told. A setting moving under somebody without a word is the part
of this worth being uneasy about, so the count is toasted with a way into
Settings.

README gains the Docker half the user asked for: a mounted policy file, the
same thing as environment variables for a deployment with no volume, a compose
fragment, and the fact that a policy is read once at startup so editing it
means a restart.

Closes #207.
2026-09-02 11:00:48 -07:00
jcoffey-dev 457ea53ca3 Let an installation seed and lock user settings
The first two thirds of #207. A school wanting "warn about outside senders"
on for three thousand pupils cannot ask three thousand pupils, and the
reporter is right that this is a company policy rather than a preference.

Two powers, and the difference between them is the whole request. `defaults`
seed an account that has never had settings of its own and can be changed
afterwards like anything else -- a starting point, not a rule. `enforced` are
reapplied on every load and cannot be changed at all.

Enforced controls stay visible and go dead, with a line saying why. The issue
asked for that by name: a control that is simply missing reads as a bug to
somebody who has used ihasmail without a policy.

The lock is in the settings store rather than only on the controls. There is
one door -- `update` -- and putting it there means an imported settings file,
a settings file synced from a device that predates the policy, and a control
somebody adds later and forgets to check are all covered by construction.
Reset goes back to the installation's answer rather than to ihasmail's, so it
cannot be a way around a policy either.

Configured by environment variable or by a file, because ihasmail's own
production runs read-only with no volume: an installation that cannot mount a
file can still set a variable. Keys this build does not have are dropped, the
same rule an imported settings file already gets -- a policy written against a
newer ihasmail must not put a setting nothing reads into everybody's synced
settings file. Malformed JSON stops the server rather than quietly doing
nothing, since a policy that silently did not apply is indistinguishable from
the feature not working.

Tier three -- enforcing a setting once while still letting readers change it
afterwards -- is not here. It needs a decision the reporter and I have not
made yet, and it is the only part that stores anything new.

jcoffey-dev a1fe4fea1a Skip vCards on re-import that the address book already has
The contacts half of the rule that shipped for events, and only the half that
can be decided. A vCard carries a UID its author meant, so a card whose UID
this book already holds is that card, and re-importing an export left a second
copy of every one of them. Reported on #174 by the reporter's colleague, and
decided on #173: skip on a UID that is already here, import what arrives
without one, since nothing can be matched on an identity that is not there.

LDIF is deliberately untouched and now says so in the type. Mozilla's schema
defines no UID and the dn is not an identity outside the directory it came
from, so the import invents a UID that can never match one already present.
Guessing instead from a name and an address is the open question on #223, and
a guess that merges two people who share a name is worse than a duplicate
somebody can see and delete.

Both imports answer with the same shape, so a caller does not have to know
which one it called. LDIF's skipped is always 0, which is the honest number
rather than a missing field.

The UIDs are asked of the server rather than read from the cards in the store.
The store's copy is complete once the view has loaded, and importing does not
wait for a view.

Two callers, two messages. The contacts import reports both counts, as the
calendar import does: "Imported 3 contacts" over a file of two hundred reads
as a failure when the rest were already here. And a vCard attached to a
message -- usually one you have been sent before -- now says it is already in
your contacts rather than reporting that it added none.

Refs #223; the LDIF half stays open.

jcoffey-dev 1a6158aa70 Export a calendar as an iCAL file
The mirror of the import from #173, and the last thing contacts had that
calendars did not -- an address book could always be exported, a calendar
never could.

It is written here rather than asked for. The import hands parsing to the
server because Stalwart has a CalendarEvent/parse and reimplementing an .ics
reader in a browser would be foolish; there is no method the other way, in
Stalwart or in the JMAP calendar drafts, so the file is built from the RFC
8984 objects the server already returns. Most of that is renaming: 8984 was
written as a restatement of 5545, and the comments say which way it went
wherever the two disagree.

The masters, not the occurrences. The query runs without expandRecurrences,
so a weekly meeting leaves as one VEVENT carrying its RRULE rather than as a
year of identical ones -- an export that had flattened the rule would import
somewhere else as a pile nobody can maintain. A changed occurrence goes out
as its own VEVENT with the same UID and a RECURRENCE-ID, which is how
iCalendar has always said it; a cancelled one becomes an EXDATE.

Three decisions worth stating rather than leaving to be found:

No VTIMEZONE components. A TZID names the IANA zone the server holds and
nothing defines it beside it, because defining it means shipping a zone
database to describe rules the reader's own system already knows. Every
client that matters resolves IANA names. The alternative -- converting to
UTC -- would be worse than a validator's complaint: a weekly 09:00 that
becomes 08:00 for half the year is a wrong calendar.

UNTIL follows DTSTART's kind, a date for an all-day series and a UTC instant
otherwise. Sending a local time there is the usual way to make a series stop
a day early in another timezone.

Overrides are applied at the top level only. A recurrence override is a JSON
patch, and one addressing locations/x/name is not something this flattens.

Closes #216.
2026-09-02 09:21:16 -07:00
jcoffey-dev 74f6d1d0aa Skip events on re-import that the calendar already has
Importing an export twice left second copies of everything. The import has
kept the file's own UID since it was written -- inventing one only where an
event arrives without -- so what was needed to recognise an event that is
already here was there all along, and nothing looked at it.

Asked for on #173 after the reporter's colleague hit the duplication in
testing, and decided there: skip on a UID the calendar already holds, import
what arrives without one. An event with no UID is not one anything can match
to, and a softer match -- title and time, say -- guesses in both directions.

The UIDs are read once per import rather than once per event. CalendarEvent/
query does take a uid filter, which is what findByUid uses, but a file of two
thousand events would be two thousand queries. Read without expandRecurrences
so a weekly series is one event with one UID rather than one per occurrence,
and narrowed to the target calendar from calendarIds rather than through an
inCalendar filter this client has not confirmed the server supports.

Matching is per calendar. A UID is what makes an event the same event across
calendars, so the same event being in two of them is not a duplicate and the
second calendar still gets its copy.

importIcs now answers with both counts. "Imported 40 events" over a file of
240 reads as a failure when 200 of them were simply already there, and a
re-import of an unchanged file would otherwise report importing nothing at
all rather than saying everything was already here.

The three import toasts are translated in all nine catalogues while the
messages were being written -- the plural for the existing one had never been
added and was falling back to English.

Closes #222.
2026-09-02 08:52:33 -07:00
jcoffey-dev 5e6e049eef Set the Archive role from ihasmail, rather than describing it
#220 corrected the message and left it useless: it told you a folder needs
the Archive role on the server, which was true, and gave you nothing to do
about it here. Roles were shown in Folders settings and never settable.

Mailbox/set takes `role`. Confirmed live against 0.16.20 on 2026-09-02, as an
ordinary user through the proxy, with no admin API: setting role "archive" on
a folder that had none returned updated and the folder began working as the
Archive immediately. Stalwart parses the role names in SpecialUse::parse,
"archive" among them, refuses a second holder of a role, and refuses to move
the role of Inbox, Junk or Trash.

So the toast now carries the fix. "No Archive folder is set yet." with a
Create one that makes the folder and then completes the archiving that could
not happen -- rather than leaving someone to select the same messages again.

A folder already named Archive and carrying no role is adopted rather than
duplicated. That is the state #217 was reported from, and a second Archive
beside the first would be its own confusion. One named Archive that is really
the Sent folder is left alone: taking its role to fix archiving would break
sending.

Folders settings gains a Role column. Archive, Drafts and Sent are offered,
being the roles this client's behaviour depends on and the server will move;
Inbox, Junk and Trash show theirs and cannot change it, because 0.16.20
refuses. A role another folder holds is left out of the list rather than
offered and refused, so freeing it is a deliberate two steps.

The folder is created with the server's own name, never the localised one,
for the reason renaming already writes back the server's: a German session
must not create "Archiv" that an English one cannot find.

Closes #217 properly.
2026-09-02 08:38:08 -07:00
jcoffey-dev 1611ae6918 Say the Archive folder needs the role, not the name
Archiving looks the folder up by its special-use role and by nothing else --
roleId("archive"), falling back to roleId("all") -- and then, finding
neither, told you to create a folder named "Archive". Naming a folder does
not give it a role, and ihasmail has no way to assign one: Folders settings
shows the role beside a folder and offers no way to set it. So the advice
sent someone round a loop that could not end. They make the folder, it still
does not work, and the message says the same thing again.

It now says what is actually required and where it lives: a folder needs the
Archive role on the server, and naming it "Archive" is not enough.

All nine catalogues carry the correction rather than falling back to English,
and they need the same native review the rest of them do.

The existing test asserted only that archiving complained. It now checks what
the complaint says, since the words were the whole bug.

Closes #217.
2026-09-02 08:00:46 -07:00
jcoffey-dev 4121f9263b Set contact cards in batches the server will take
The same bug the calendar import had, in the three places contacts write
more than one card at once. ContactCard/set is refused whole over
maxObjectsInSet -- requestTooLarge, nothing created -- so a large enough
vCard or LDIF file imported nothing, and "select all, delete" over a large
address book deleted nothing and reported it in JMAP's words.

Nobody has hit it. It was found by looking, after #215 fixed the calendar,
and it is promised on #173.

Both imports now go through one createCards, which splits by the ceiling the
session advertises and falls back to 500. That is what the LDIF import's
comment -- "from ContactCard/set down they are the same" -- was already
claiming, and is now true of.

destroyCards splits the same way, and takes off the list the ids the server
said it destroyed rather than everything that was asked for. It removed all
of them before, which was harmless while there was one call and wrong the
moment a later batch can fail: deleted contacts must not stay on screen, and
live ones must not disappear from it.

One behaviour change beyond the batching. A vCard import the server accepted
no card of returned 0, and the view reported importing no contacts -- which
reads as an empty file rather than as a refusal. It now says why, which is
what the LDIF import has always done. A file with genuinely nothing in it
still says so, earlier and separately.
2026-09-02 06:54:24 -07:00
jcoffey-dev 17bd548524 Import an iCal file in batches the server will take
An 800 KB export imported nothing at all. Every event in the file went out
in a single CalendarEvent/set, and Stalwart refuses a method call carrying
more objects than maxObjectsInSet -- the whole call, with requestTooLarge,
creating none of it -- so the import failed at exactly the size that makes
importing worth doing. A two-event invitation was fine; a real calendar was
not.

The events now go out maxObjectsInSet at a time, which the client already
reads off the session and defaults to 500 where a server does not say. That
is the same ceiling and the same helper the mail store batches deletes and
flag changes by; nothing new had to be learned about the limit, and there is
no need to ask anyone to split an .ics by hand at an arbitrary line.

Still batches rather than a call per event: createEvent invalidates on the
way out and invalidating re-fetches every cached range, which is why the
import writes its own set calls in the first place. One invalidate, after
the last batch.

A batch that fails after earlier ones have been filed now says how many got
in -- "1000 of 1200 events were imported before this happened" -- and
re-reads the calendar so they are visible. Reporting only that the import
failed would send someone looking for events that are already there.

The mock enforced this ceiling all along, on both /get and /set; nothing had
exercised it with a file big enough to cross it.

Reported on #173.

jcoffey-dev 1b4788c0a7 Apply the upload limit only where something is uploaded
FEATURES has always said attach-from-Files works "however large", because a
blob the account already holds is attached by reference and nothing is
sent. The code checked every file against maxSizeUpload regardless, so the
two disagreed and the code was the one that was wrong.

maxSizeUpload is what the server will accept for a single upload (RFC
8620). It bears on a file that is about to be uploaded and on nothing
else. Applying it to a by-reference attachment refused a 60 MB message the
server was already storing, on the grounds that it could not have been
uploaded -- which it was not being. Forwarding a large message as an
attachment hit exactly that.

A file from somebody else's account is fetched and re-uploaded into this
one, because a message can only carry blobs from the account sending it.
That upload is real and the limit is real for it, so it still applies
there.

jcoffey-dev 4d18d94b63 Subscribe to a calendar published at a URL
A timetable, a rota, a public holiday list: the calendars people are given
as a link, which ihasmail could not show at all.

Nothing is stored. The document is fetched when the calendar is opened and
parsed in the browser; the server keeps no copy, no cache and no schedule,
which is what lets an immutable container serve this. There is no timer
either -- there is nowhere to run one -- so the guarantee is that a
subscription is as current as the last time somebody looked, which is also
when it matters. That is said plainly rather than implied.

The fetch has to happen on the server: a calendar URL belongs to whoever
published it and almost none of them send CORS headers. That makes it the
second place this app knocks on a door somebody else chose, so the guard
the image proxy has always had was lifted out and both now call it. A
second SSRF implementation is how one of them ends up missing a case; this
way there is one, and the extraction is covered by the image proxy's own
tests still passing unchanged.

webcal: is understood, because that is how these are published, and it is
read as https: rather than waved past the checks -- a webcal URL pointing
at loopback is refused exactly like an http one.

Recurrence is deliberately not expanded. RRULE is a small language with a
lot of edge cases, and a subscription quietly showing the wrong dates would
be worse than one showing the first occurrence and saying so.

The parser is a subscription parser rather than an importer: a subscribed
calendar is read-only and redrawn from scratch each refresh, so nothing has
to round-trip or survive an edit, which is most of what makes a full
iCalendar implementation large. What it does have to do is never mis-state
a time -- a DATE is built in local time rather than at UTC midnight, which
would land on the day before for anyone west of Greenwich -- and never hang
on a document somebody else wrote.

Events go through instancesIn like the birthdays, so no view has to know
they are not real calendars, and the calendar they hang off reports no
write rights, so everything that asks before offering an edit declines on
its own. A subscription that cannot be read says so in the sidebar rather
than drawing an empty calendar, which looks like a calendar with nothing
in it.

jcoffey-dev 9aa0eda0d5 Six palettes, each with a light half and a dark one
The theme was one enum -- system, light, dark, ihasmail -- where one value
carried a whole palette and implied dark. That works for exactly one
palette. The two questions now come apart: which palette, and which side.

Classic is the plain light and dark this app has always had. ihasmail's
own palette gains a day version, so the background of the dark one becomes
the text of the light one and the two read as one palette from either end.
Dracula, Gruvbox, Rosé Pine and Tokyo Night are the work of their own
projects, used under the MIT licence, and taken from each project's own
repository rather than from anyone's reimplementation. What was fetched is
recorded in .palette-sources/ and credited in NOTICE.

Giving ihasmail's palette a light half removed a whole special case.
Nothing is one-sided any more, so a palette can no longer override the
mode, the toggle no longer has to set a palette aside on the way to light
and remember it, and the greyed-out control that explained all that is
gone. The old lastDarkTheme, which existed only for that, is gone with it.

The shades between the published colours are derived rather than guessed:
these projects publish twelve to twenty values and ihasmail needs about
thirty. scripts/build-palettes.py computes the tiers and then measures
every text colour against the surface it sits on -- 4.5:1 for prose, 3:1
for borders and marks -- lifting anything short towards white on a dark
ground and towards black on a light one, so a lifted tier keeps its hue.
It refuses to write a palette that would not pass.

Every one of the nine halves needed at least one lift. These palettes are
built for code editors, not for prose at this size: Dracula's comment grey
is 3.03:1 on its own background and Rosé Pine's gold is 2.7:1 on Dawn.
Shipping them as published would have quietly ended the WCAG AA claim.

Two things caught while checking rather than while writing. The generated
blocks were appended to the end of the stylesheet, which put them after
the accent variants at equal specificity -- so choosing an accent over one
of the new palettes did nothing at all. They now sit before those rules,
where the existing ihasmail block's own comment says they have to. And
that block was unqualified, so it would have shadowed the new light half;
it is now explicitly the dark one.

Settings written before this carry `theme` and no palette, and are read
through the old enum. `theme` is still written back, derived, because a
device on an older build reads it and would otherwise be stranded on a
theme nobody chose.

jcoffey-dev 34fc5ab81f Let the message list be sorted by something other than the date
Newest-first was the only order, so the mail you had not read yet was
wherever it happened to fall.

Seven presets and up to three levels of your own. It covers the Inbox
alone by default: unread-first is what people want in the folder they
triage and confusing in Sent, where everything is read and the order that
matters is when it went. Search keeps newest-first whatever the setting
says, since a result list is already ordered by the question that was
asked.

The server does the sorting, over the whole folder, for the same reason
search runs there: a list sorted in the browser is sorted only as far as
the browser has loaded, which on a folder of ten thousand is the first
fifty and a lie about the rest.

Two details that are easy to get wrong and were worth pinning in tests.
hasKeyword sorts a boolean and false comes before true, so "unread first"
is $seen ASCENDING while "starred first" is $flagged DESCENDING -- the
other way round. Getting either backwards puts exactly the mail you were
looking for at the bottom. And every order ends with newest-first as a
tiebreak, because a sort whose last level is a keyword or a subject leaves
every tie undefined, and an undefined order changes between two looks at
the same folder for no reason the reader can see.

Sorting on a keyword is optional in RFC 8621, and a server that will not
do it fails the whole query rather than degrading it -- so this setting
could turn a folder into one that does not open. The refusal is caught
once, the keyword levels dropped and the query retried, and nothing is
said: the reader asked for an order and got the closest the server can
give, and a toast on every folder change would be the app complaining
about its own request.

The mock now honours the sort instead of always answering newest-first,
which had it reproducing a server that silently returns a different order
from the one asked for -- the one shape of wrongness a client cannot
detect. MOCK_NO_KEYWORD_SORT=1 reproduces a server that refuses the
keyword sorts, so the fallback can be developed against.

jcoffey-dev c9ab203b76 Show birthdays from the address book as a calendar
The dates were already on the contact cards and nothing ever showed them,
so the one thing a birthday is for -- noticing it in time -- was the one
thing the app could not do with it.

Derived, not stored. The dates stay on the cards: a second copy of the
same fact drifts the first time somebody corrects one, and keeping a
calendar of its own is exactly what ihasmail does not do. Entries are
generated when a view asks for a range and vanish when the contact does.
They go through instancesIn like everything else, so no view has to know
they are different.

Off until switched on. It is derived data, and a calendar that fills
itself with dates nobody put there is a surprise rather than a feature. It
can also be hidden from the calendar's own sidebar without being turned
off, which is the same distinction the shared calendars already draw.

They cannot be edited or deleted, and that falls out of the design rather
than being special-cased: the virtual calendar reports no write rights, so
every control that already asks before offering Edit or Delete declines on
its own. updateEvent and destroyEvent refuse a synthesised id as well, so
the store is safe whatever calls it -- including anything added later.

Two things about the dates themselves. A card that records only a day and
month is the common case rather than the exceptional one, and gets a
birthday with no age rather than no birthday. And 29 February falls on the
28th in a year that has no 29th: somebody born in February has a birthday
in February, and moving it into March is the arithmetic winning over the
fact. Both are conventions; these are the ones that keep the fact intact.

The mock now carries birthdays on most of its contacts, including one with
no year and one on 29 February, so both cases are visible without a real
address book.

jcoffey-dev be8b89f5ab Merge branch 'main' into feat/nested-labels
Both sides added a field next to the mail store's selection: the label

jcoffey-dev f7ef886b45 Nest labels, and let each one say how prominent it is
A flat list is fine at five labels and unreadable at thirty, and there was
no way to keep one that matters occasionally without it holding a row for
ever.

A label can now sit under another, and each says whether it belongs in the
sidebar always, only while it has unread mail, or never.

Nesting is display only. The keywords stay flat on the message, which is
what keeps them readable by every other client: moving a label under
another rewrites nothing in the mailbox, and a client that knows nothing
about ihasmail sees exactly what it always did. Both new fields are
optional, so a settings file written before this parses unchanged and
means what it did.

Settings sync between devices, so the tree has to survive shapes that
should not exist. A label whose parent was deleted on another device comes
back to the top level rather than vanishing -- a label that disappears
because something else was deleted is one the reader cannot get back. A
cycle arriving from an older device is broken by treating the label that
closes the loop as a root, so nothing is lost and nothing hangs. The
parent picker will not offer a label's own descendants, so one cannot be
built here in the first place.

A label kept by the unread rule keeps its ancestors, whatever they were
set to. A child cannot be drawn under a parent that is not there, and
promoting it to the top level would silently rearrange the tree at the
moment the reader is least able to explain why. The parent comes back as a
container instead, and its own count still says whether it has anything of
its own.

Unread counts come from one request carrying a query per label rather than
a request each, with limit 0 so the server does not send ids that would
only be thrown away. They refresh on the same beat as the folder counts,
since the things that move them are the same things, and a failure is
swallowed: a count is decoration, and the sidebar draws the label without
one.

Also corrects the Labels page, which said names and colours are kept in
this browser. They live in the account's own Files and follow it between
devices, like every other setting that is not about this screen.

jcoffey-dev 8bee0eb3c8 Select a whole folder, not just the rows that are loaded
The header checkbox selected the loaded page. On a folder of ten thousand
that is fifty of them, and the only way to act on the rest was to scroll
until they loaded and tick again.

A line now offers the rest by name once the page is selected, and taking
it is a separate press. A checkbox that silently meant ten thousand when
the screen shows fifty would be the worst of both, so each option says
what it actually covers.

The wider selection is a query rather than a list of ids. What it reaches
is resolved from the server when an action runs, walked a page at a time,
because a folder holds far more than one call returns and Email/set
refuses more ids than maxObjectsInSet in one go -- which setEmails already
chunks for. It resolves uncollapsed, unlike the list: "everything in this
folder" means every message rather than one per thread, and expanding
threads the way a click does is impossible here anyway, since that walks
loaded Email objects and these are the ones that were never loaded.

Two things this exposed.

Undo is now withheld once a move reaches messages that were never loaded.
It restores the folders each message was in, taken from what the browser
holds, and for an unloaded message that is nothing -- so the undo would
have written an empty mailboxIds and left the message in no folder at all,
which is worse than the move it was undoing. move() and archiveByDate()
both did this; both now drop the offer rather than restore something
wrong.

And an action consumes the wider selection. The optimistic paths cleared
the selected ids but not the flag, so the next action would have silently
reached the whole folder again.

jcoffey-dev 5b18f1d5d7 Warn about outside senders, large sends and links that mislead
Four warnings, in Privacy & safety, and all of them start switched off.

That is not timidity. A client that begins by interrupting is one people
learn to click through, and a warning clicked through without reading
costs the same attention and buys nothing. The outside-sender warning
could not be on by default in any case: it measures against the domains
that count as yours, and with nothing configured every message in the
mailbox is from outside.

Your own identity domains are always internal and are not configuration.
An account signed in as [email protected] warning that example.com is
external would be absurd, and making it be typed in first is a foot-gun
that leaves the feature useless the moment it is enabled. Configured
domains are additional, and cover their subdomains -- matched on a dot
boundary, so example.com covers mail.example.com and not notexample.com,
which is exactly the domain somebody registers on purpose.

The four:

A banner names the sender's domain on a message from outside.

Sending outside names the outside recipients and asks, rather than
refusing. "This is going outside" is a rule and not something the sender
can check; a list of addresses is. It reads the full identity list rather
than the visible one, since hiding an identity from the From menu does not
make its domain somebody else's.

Sending to a large group asks once the count crosses a threshold, which is
what catches a reply-all onto a long thread. It counts people rather than
headers, so one address in To and nine in Cc is a message to ten.

Opening a link asks when the destination is not trusted, and always when
the link's text names one domain while its destination is another -- even
where that destination is trusted, because being trusted is not the same
as being the place the text claimed. On that mismatch the offer to trust
the domain is withheld: what would be trusted is the destination, and the
destination is not the thing in question. Anything that is not http or
https is left alone, since warning about a mailto: is noise and noise is
how a warning stops being read. Both bodies are covered, because a link in
a plain-text mail is linkified by us and points wherever it likes just as
readily as one the sender marked up.

The click is cancelled and the navigation re-issued after the answer,
since there is no way to hold a real navigation open across a dialog. The
reopen runs in the continuation of the dialog's own click, which is still
the gesture a popup blocker wants to see.

jcoffey-dev 93d0a32af2 Serve ihasmail from a subpath
`BASE_PATH=/mail` mounts the whole app under a prefix, for a host that is not
ihasmail's alone. Unset -- every deployment that exists -- is the domain root
and is byte-for-byte what it was: the canonical form of the setting is the
empty string, and `""` concatenated onto `/api/health` is `/api/health`.

That choice of canonical form is the whole design. A trailing slash would have
been the obvious alternative, and it fails quietly in exactly one place: at the
root it makes `//api/health`, which is not a path on this host but a
protocol-relative URL to a host called `api`. One call site forgetting to
branch is a request leaving the origin. So the empty string, one leading slash,
no trailing one, worked out once in `scripts/basePath.mjs` -- plain JS, next to
`version.mjs`, because the web build and the server both have to reach the same
answer and two implementations of "what does /mail/ mean" is precisely the bug
where the server serves an app whose script tags point somewhere else.
`/mail`, `mail`, `/mail/` and `//mail//` all mean the same mount; a deployment
should not fail over a trailing slash.

Unlike everything else ihasmail is told, this one cannot wait for the process
to start. The bundle writes its own asset URLs into index.html, so `BASE_PATH`
is read at build time for Vite's `base` as well as at run time for the routes,
and the Dockerfile carries one value into both. Get them out of step and the
page comes up blank with a 404 in a console nobody has open -- so the static
handler, which is reading index.html anyway, checks what it asks for and says
so in the log once per build.

Everything moves together. The API mounts at `${base}/api`; the router is
given the base once, so every `<Route path>` and `<Link href>` stays written
root-absolute and wouter does the rest; `apiFetch` adds the prefix in one place
rather than at forty call sites; the session cookie's Path narrows to the mount
so two instances on one host cannot sign each other out.

Two things need no prefix at all, and it is worth saying why they were not
given one. A manifest's members resolve against the manifest's own address, so
relative URLs there follow the mount with nothing substituted at build time --
which is also why `public/` needed no template step. The service worker is the
same trick: it is served from the mount, so `new URL("./", self.location)`
tells it where that is, and a worker that derives the value cannot disagree
with the page that registered it.

Anything outside the mount is a 404 rather than the app shell, and
`stripBasePath` does not use `startsWith` -- under `/mail` this process shares
a hostname, and answering `/mailbox` with our index would shadow a neighbour
instead of letting it 404 honestly. For the same reason the notification-click
handler now checks the path as well as the origin: `includeUncontrolled` widens
`matchAll` to the whole origin, which off the root would have navigated a
stranger's tab to our inbox.

Inline images in a draft were the one silent trap. They are matched by their
blob URL on the way out, once unanchored and once anchored, and a bare
`/api/blob/` still appears inside `/mail/api/blob/...` -- so one pattern would
have replaced the tail and left `/mail` in front of a `cid:`, and the other
would have missed and sent the message linking to the sender's own webmail.
Both patterns are built from the base now.

Coffey Labs 3c3ffbd425 Merge pull request #198 from Coffey-Labs/feat/archive-by-date
Archive into a dated folder
2026-09-01 22:27:32 -07:00
jcoffey-dev 785570a41d Archive into a dated folder
Archiving put everything in one folder, so an Archive that has been
collecting for years is a single flat list with no way to narrow it except
search.

Archive by year and Archive by month file into Archive/2026 and
Archive/2026/09, creating the folders as needed and reusing them after
that, including folders made by hand or by another client.

The names are numeric and zero-padded rather than month names, because
these are real server-side mailboxes rather than anything of ihasmail's.
Every other client sees them: a folder created as "September" by someone
reading in English stays "September" for the same account read in
Japanese, since the name is stored and not translated. And 09 sorts
between 08 and 10 where a name does not.

The date is read in the reader's own timezone rather than UTC so it agrees
with the date shown against the message in the list. A message that
arrived at 00:30 UTC on 1 September is dated 31 August in New York, and
filing it under 09 while the list says August would be the app
disagreeing with itself. A message whose date cannot be read goes to
Archive itself rather than to a folder named after a guess.

A selection spanning two months is two destinations, not one. The moves
are made silently and one toast names where everything went -- the folder
where there is a single answer, the count where there is not -- because
each group raising its own toast with its own Undo would mean undoing a
third of a move. One Undo restores the whole selection to wherever each
message came from, captured before anything moved.

The menu labels name the destination where there is one, so it reads
"Archive to 2026/09" rather than describing the rule, and falls back to
"Archive by month" for a selection with no single answer.

jcoffey-dev 0db795371e Forward a message as an attachment
Forwarding quoted the original into a new message, which is the right
thing for passing on something to be read and the wrong thing for passing
on something to be looked at. Quoting rewrites the body, drops the
headers, and re-parents the attachments, so a bounce, a phishing report or
anything else where the message itself is the evidence arrived altered.

Forward as attachment sends the message whole, as a message/rfc822 part.
It costs no upload at all: a message's own blobId is its RFC822 blob and
already lives in the account, so this goes through the same by-reference
path as attach-from-Files and a 40 MB message attaches as fast as a small
one.

It is in the message's own menu, the list's right-click menu, and the
overflow on the reply strip at the foot of a thread, which is the one a
thumb finds on a phone.

Two things fixed on the way, both exposed rather than introduced by this.

The filename rule was subject.replace(/[^\w.-]+/g, "_"), and \w without
the u flag is ASCII: every character of a Russian, Japanese or Chinese
subject failed the class, so those messages downloaded as a row of
underscores. What is actually unsafe in a filename is much shorter than
"not ASCII" -- path separators, the names Windows reserves, the control
range -- so the rule now keeps letters from any script and drops only
those. It lives in one place and the .eml download uses it too.

And the composer's attachment chip set overflow/text-overflow on a span,
where neither does anything, so the name never truncated and the size ran
on after it on the same line. Only long names showed it, which is every
.eml named from a subject.

jcoffey-dev 63c2839602 Show what the spam filter said, in the message details
The filter in front of the mailbox scores every delivered message and
writes its working into headers, and none of it was being read. A message
in Junk gave no reason for being there.

Nothing here scores anything. The headers are parsed and shown, so this
cannot disagree with the filter that actually made the decision.

Two formats cover what sits in front of a Stalwart mailbox in practice:
the SpamAssassin-shaped X-Spam-* set, which Stalwart's own filter writes,
and Rspamd's X-Spamd-Result. A header in neither shape is left unread
rather than guessed at, since a misparsed score shown confidently is worse
than no panel at all. Mail that arrived without any of them shows nothing.

Rules are listed largest mover first and signed, because which way a rule
pushed is the point, and the biggest contributor is the answer to why the
message scored what it did.

Two things it deliberately will not do. A score is always given the
threshold it was measured against, because 6.7 is damning against 5 and
unremarkable against 15 -- the number alone is not something a reader can
act on; where no threshold was stated, it says so rather than implying
one. And where the filter recorded no verdict, none is derived from score
against threshold: the filter applies policy we cannot see, and putting a
verdict in its mouth would be inventing one.

The mock writes the same headers at delivery -- spam in Junk, clean in the
Inbox, nothing on mail this account wrote -- so the panel can be developed
and demoed against it.

jcoffey-dev c85525f3ed Fill placeholders when a template is inserted
Templates were a fixed subject and body, so anything that changed per
message -- who it is going to, today's date -- had to be typed over
afterwards.

Eight names are recognised: recipientName, recipientFirstName,
recipientEmail, myName, myEmail, subject, date and time. Dates and times
go through datetime.ts rather than toLocaleDateString, so a template
follows the date order and clock the app was already told to use.

Filling happens on insert rather than on send. What a placeholder came to
is then visible in the composer and can be edited, instead of the message
changing between writing it and sending it.

Two things are deliberately left alone. A placeholder that cannot be
answered yet -- a recipient's name on a draft nobody has addressed -- stays
in the body as written, because substituting an empty string produces
"Hi ,", which is wrong rather than visibly unfinished; leaving the name
says which word is still missing and can be typed over. And a name that is
not a placeholder is left as written too, since a body that quietly ate an
unrecognised token would be worse than one that shows it.

Values are escaped on the way into HTML: a display name comes from a
contact card or a typed address and is not trusted markup.

jcoffey-dev 00b580bad8 Select more than one file at a time
Moving or deleting five files meant doing it five times, each with its own
confirm. Rows now select the way they do in a file manager: a plain click
replaces the selection, ctrl or cmd adds and removes one, shift takes the
run from the last row clicked, clicking past the last row or pressing
Escape clears it. Two or more selected raises a bar with Move to... and
Delete, and the row menu offers the same for the whole selection.

The move is one `FileNode/set` rather than a loop, and not only for the
round trip: a loop would apply half the moves and then throw, leaving a
selection split across two folders with nothing saying which half went.
One call is one answer, and `notUpdated` names whatever the server
refused.

Right-clicking inside the selection acts on all of it; right-clicking
outside means you meant that row, so the selection follows the pointer
rather than the menu quietly applying to something off-screen. A drag
carries the whole selection the same way, which is why the payload is now
a list -- and why a drop is refused unless every file in it can land,
since a drag that moves four of five and skips the fifth is worse than
one that will not start.

A selection belongs to the folder it was made in, so changing folder or
account drops it: rows left selected off-screen make the delete two
folders later a surprise.

jcoffey-dev a4c0e04ab9 Edit a text file where you are already reading it
v2 of the viewer: Edit, on text and Markdown, in the dialog and on the
row menu. Save is explicit -- every save mints a new blob, so autosave
would burn quota and multiply the conflicts it cannot see.

Two people editing one file is the case worth getting right. `saveText`
re-reads the node and compares the blob the editor started from: if
somebody else saved in the meantime it refuses, says so, and leaves the
work in the box to copy out. `ifInState` is the obvious tool and the
wrong one -- it is the state of every FileNode in the account, so an
unrelated upload in another folder would fail the save, and a warning
that cries wolf is a warning people click through.

Editing is not offered where saving would lose something: a file
truncated for display would have its tail written away, and one that did
not decode as UTF-8 would have mojibake written over whatever encoding it
really is. Both open read-only and say which. Nor is it offered without
mayModifyContent -- a read-only share just has no Edit.

Closing or cancelling with unsaved changes asks first, Ctrl+S saves, and
mail attachments are unaffected: they pass no onSave, because a message
part is not a thing that can be written back.

jcoffey-dev fc0e2b2b3e Import an address book in LDIF
Somebody arriving from SOGo, Thunderbird or an LDAP directory has their
contacts in LDIF, and until now the only way in was vCard.

Nothing on the server reads LDIF, so this reads it here, in two pieces
that are two different problems. `ldif.ts` is RFC 2849 and nothing else:
folded lines, base64 values, case-insensitive attribute names, options,
comments, `version:` headers, change records. It knows no attribute by
name. `mozillaAb.ts` knows the attributes and no syntax -- Mozilla's
address book schema, which is what Thunderbird and SOGo write and what the
issue asks for by name. LDIF says nothing about what any attribute means,
so a file is only readable against a schema, and keeping the two apart is
what would let a second schema be added without touching the reader.

Work and home addresses, which the schema keeps in two separate sets of
attributes, come across as two addresses. So do every phone kind, the
second email, the organisation and its units, job title, nickname, web
pages and the AIM handle. The four custom fields have no equivalent in
JSContact and are appended to the note, labelled as Thunderbird labels
them: keeping something somebody chose to write down is worth more than
the tidiness of dropping it.

An entry with neither a name nor an address is skipped rather than
imported as a blank row that is impossible to identify and tedious to find
again to delete. The distinguished name is not used as the contact's uid:
it says where an entry sat in somebody else's directory.

One import control takes either format and decides by what is in the file
rather than by what it is called, because an address book exported as LDIF
arrives as .ldif, .ldi, .txt or with no extension at all.

jcoffey-dev 02c0332d8f Send a message again as a new one
A mail the far end rejected, or one that went to an address with a typo in
it, is a mail you want to send again -- not forward, and not reply to.
Doing it by hand meant a new message and copying five fields across.

"Compose as new" sits with Reply and Forward, in the message menu and in
the list's right-click menu. It opens a composer holding the recipients
the message had, its Reply-To, its subject with nothing prefixed to it,
its body with nothing wrapped around it, and its attachments.

What makes it a new mail is what it leaves behind. `draftId` stays null,
or sending would destroy the message it was made from. `inReplyTo`,
`references`, `relatedEmailId` and `relatedKeyword` stay null, so it hangs
off no thread and sending it marks the original neither answered nor
forwarded. The Message-ID is the server's and the date is stamped at
build time, so both are new without anything asking for them -- the send
path needed no changes at all.

A message you sent is composed as the identity you sent it as. One
somebody else sent has no identity of yours to match, and guessing from
whom it was addressed to would put the resend behind an alias that was
only ever the receiving end, so that case takes the account's default.

No signature is added. The body is the one that was sent, which already
ends in whatever signature went with it, and appending the identity's
would give it two.

jcoffey-dev 6431ec87f5 Import an iCal file into a calendar
An .ics reaches you by ways that are not your mailbox -- a ticketing
system a customer invited, a colleague's export, a booking confirmation
forwarded on -- and until now the only events ihasmail could take were the
ones attached to a message it had received.

The calendar's own menu now offers "Import iCAL file…", which files
everything in the file into that calendar. No global button: the issue is
right that this is not a frequent enough thing to earn one.

The parsing is the server's, through the same CalendarEvent/parse an
emailed invitation already goes through. An .ics is not a format worth
reimplementing in a browser, and Stalwart's reader handles what a
hand-rolled one would not.

Every event goes out in a single CalendarEvent/set. The round trips are
the smaller half of the reason: createEvent invalidates on the way out and
invalidating refetches every cached range, so a year of events imported
one at a time would refetch the calendar a few hundred times.

Nothing is mailed to anyone named in the file. Importing is filing
something you already have, and scheduling messages would be a surprise to
its participants.

The mock's parser read the whole file with one regex and returned one
event, which is all an invitation ever needed. It now reads per VEVENT, so
a multi-event file can be tested against it, and it invents an organiser
and an attendee only for events that carry a METHOD -- a plain export is
not addressed to anyone.

Closes #173

jcoffey-dev b862f61cde Invite the people the message was already between
Follow-up to #167: an event made from a mail now opens with the sender
and everyone it was addressed to already in the guest list, so a thread
becomes a meeting without retyping the room.

Two things are deliberately left out. The reader's own addresses, since
they are the organiser and an organiser among their own guests is an
invitation to your own appointment. And a blind copy, on a message the
reader sent: a guest list is visible to every guest, so promoting a Bcc
to a guest would tell the room about a copy the sender chose to hide.
That is not something a menu item may do quietly.

*Send invitation emails to guests* now starts off when the guests were
inherited rather than typed, and on everywhere else -- which is every
event whose guests somebody chose one at a time. The reason is the case
the issue opened with: a reminder made out of a bill carries the biller
and everyone else on the mail. Left on, the primary button reads Send
invites and the first press mails all of them an invitation to what was
meant as a note to self. The switch sits right there under the list and
says what it does, so inviting them is one deliberate click. Un-sending
is not.
