jcoffey-dev bd6a605d61 Group six more clusters out of web/src/lib
Takes the flat module count from 66 to 42, continuing what admin/ and
calendar/ started.

  lib/mailbox/  archiveDate, emptyFolder, folderMove, labelTree,
                mailboxName, mailboxRoute
  lib/sieve/    sieve, sieveApply, sieveFolders
  lib/input/    keyboard, swipe, touch, listSelection, dropUpload
  lib/notify/   notify, webpush, webpushEnable
  lib/sw/       swCache, swFacts, staleBuild
  lib/text/     html, markdown, text, emlName

FOUR THINGS THE FILENAMES GET WRONG, each checked by reading the file
rather than trusting what it is called:

  - appFolder is not a mailbox. It is the `ihasmail` folder in JMAP
    *Files*, where the client keeps signature images and synced settings.
    It stays flat.
  - format holds no formatting of text. It re-exports the date and clock
    formatters, so it belongs with dates/datetime, not with text/.
  - preview is the file viewer deciding what it can show without
    downloading, and source is where to point someone asking for this
    instance's AGPL source. Neither is about text.
  - notify is not Web Push. It is the tab title, the favicon badge and
    the new-mail sound -- in-app notification, which is why it sits with
    webpush rather than under sw/ with the service worker's own concerns.

threadScroll stays flat too: it decides where a conversation opens, which
is view state rather than a gesture, and input/ is honest only if
everything in it interprets something the reader did.

No behavior change. Almost every reference was on the @/ alias; eight
relative imports in files that did not move, or that moved away from a
sibling, needed rewriting by hand.

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.

jcoffey-dev a6863e98cc Second extraction pass: the strings the codemod could not see
`i18n:coverage` reported 100% while a hundred-odd strings rendered
English in every language. It was not wrong about what it measured: it
reads JSX text, and none of these were JSX text. They were toast
arguments, `confirmDialog({ title, confirmLabel })` props, `title=` and
`aria-label=` attributes, and template literals — every one built from an
expression the codemod cannot read.

176 source strings and 15 plural sets now go through t() and plural(),
translated into all nine languages. Where English put a word in a slot,
the sentence is spelled out per branch instead: `Filter ${verb}` became
"Filter saved" and "Filter created", because which word agrees with what,
and where it sits, is not a property English gets to decide for everyone.
Counts that were `${n} message${n === 1 ? "" : "s"}` are plural() calls,
so Russian and Ukrainian get three forms and Japanese and Chinese get the
one they actually have.

Two of the catalogue's own conventions were worth learning the hard way.
Plural entries are keyed on the English *other* form, not `one` — `one`
is a form English happens to have and Japanese does not. And a constant
table holding English that is translated at the render site is fine: the
literal is a key, not a leak.

Which is what the new check encodes. `scripts/i18n-literals.mjs` accepts
a string that is wrapped where it is written or is a catalogue key
somewhere, and refuses one that is neither — a string no catalogue can
translate, however many languages ship. It found twenty more than my own
sweep had, including the stale-folder toast seen in production. It runs
as part of `npm run i18n:check`.

Also fixed: the catalogue is now awaited before the first paint. The
tree is rebuilt when a catalogue lands, so components recover on their
own, but a string computed in an effect does not — a toast fired in that
gap is emitted in English and stays English. The wait costs nothing
visible, since the session bootstrap already shows a spinner and English
resolves immediately.

And the Japanese agenda title loses a space Japanese does not use:
"{date} からの予定" was written with the English habit of spacing around
a placeholder.

jcoffey-dev 71dd2e108f Folder names follow the language, and three bugs that found
Answering "can we ask Stalwart to serve German folder names": no, and it would
not help if we could. The account locale exists in `x:AccountSettings`, and
ihasmail already reads it -- that is what "Your mail server reports German"
comes from -- but writing it needs `sysAccountSettingsSet`, which the built-in
user role does not carry; only an admin could. And even then it would change
nothing, because folder names are stored data written once when the account is
provisioned. No server renames them afterwards; every other client has them
mapped.

The role is the way through. JMAP tags the standard folders and ihasmail
already trusts the role over the name everywhere it matters, so the *displayed*
name can follow the interface language with nothing written to the server. A
folder somebody made and called "Newsletters" keeps that name: those are their
words, and translating them would name a folder they never created.

The cost is real and worth stating: Thunderbird on the same account still shows
"Deleted Items", because that is what the folder is called. Inside ihasmail it
stays consistent -- everything that names a folder goes through one function,
including the "moved to …" toast, which exists precisely so that message does
not name somewhere the reader cannot find. Renaming still edits the server's
own name, never the localised one.

Three things fell out of it.

The message list refreshed for ever after a language change, which is the one
somebody noticed. The root keys its tree on the language version, so a publish
remounts everything; remounting re-runs the effect that loads the account's
settings, which calls applyLang, which called setCatalog again -- with an
identical tag and an identical catalogue -- and publishing that non-change went
round again. setCatalog now returns early when nothing changed. Measured
rather than assumed: three consecutive five-second windows with no JMAP calls
at all, against a pre-change count that never settled.

Calendar months and weekdays stayed English, because formatting locale and
interface language are separate settings and only the first feeds Intl.
Keeping them separate is right -- German dates with an English interface is a
real preference -- but somebody who picks German and is shown "September" has
not got what they asked for. A chosen interface language now joins the
*automatic* chain ahead of the server and the browser. Setting a formatting
locale explicitly still wins, and English is not counted, so an English
interface on a German browser keeps German dates exactly as before.

And the Archive folder read "Archivieren", which is the verb. English uses one
word for the button and the folder; German does not, and neither does
"Important", which is also a priority tag. tc(context, source) keys the
catalogue on both and falls back to the plain English, which was right in
English all along -- the gettext approach, including the control character as
separator so no real string can collide.

The catalogue checker needed teaching about tc() twice: first it reported the
eight contextual entries as stale, then it asked for the plain fallbacks as
though they were a second obligation. A check that reports work which does not
exist gets switched off, which is worse than not having one.

jcoffey-dev 3f4b33cb51 Finish extraction: 100%, and a coverage number worth believing
The 143 the codemod refused turned out to be two different things, and only
one of them needed a person.

A third were phrases sitting next to an icon -- `<Plus /> New rule`. The
refusal rule was "has siblings", which is broader than the danger: what breaks
a translation is a sibling that renders *text*, splitting a sentence into
fragments no one can reorder. An element beside a phrase does not. Narrowing
the rule to text-producing siblings let the codemod take 73 more.

The rest were real sentences with values in the middle, rebuilt by hand as
named placeholders -- "Your active script “{name}” was written by hand",
"Waiting on the server — goes out {when}." Named rather than positional
because a translator moves the parts around; counted things go through
plural() so Russian and Ukrainian get their three forms rather than English's
two.

Sentences with an element inside them needed something new. `Open <code>mailto:
</code> links in ihasmail` has two obvious treatments and both are wrong:
splitting it into two t() calls hands over fragments that cannot be reordered,
and dropping the <code> keeps the sentence whole but loses the monospace that
said "this is a literal". tNode() keeps the sentence whole and makes the
element a named hole in it, so a translator sees one sentence and can put the
hole where their language wants it. The German test asserts exactly that: the
same call renders the code first when the catalogue says so.

The coverage number was also lying, and it is worth saying how. It counted
text inside <code> and inside translate="no" as untranslated work, and
placeholders like "123456" and "+1 555 0100" -- a one-time code and a phone
format. None of those will ever be translated, so the report sat at 21 with 6
real items left. A number with an unreachable floor is something to argue with
rather than act on, so the tool now applies the same rules the codemod does.

596 wrapped, nothing remaining. Verified in the browser across 15 views, which
is where the last bulk pass hid a bug the tests could not see: no entities, no
unfilled placeholders, no raw t( in rendered text, and the toggle switches that
looked like emptied labels are text-free by design.

jcoffey-dev 8ea611f7f7 Extract 515 strings by codemod, and the two bugs only a screenshot caught
Wrapping ~1,000 strings by hand is a thousand chances to mistype the copy
itself, and a parser does not get bored. scripts/i18n-extract.mjs does the
mechanical part -- JSX text and the attributes a person actually reads -- and
refuses the rest rather than guessing. 78% now: 515 wrapped, 143 left.

What it refuses matters as much as what it does. Text split around an
interpolation arrives as separate fragments, and wrapping each on its own
produces "Move " and " messages", which no translator can do anything with;
those are listed for a person to rebuild as sentences. So is anything
containing a double quote, which would end the literal.

Three things it had to be taught, each found by running it:

- <code>, <kbd> and <pre> are not prose. The first run wrapped `label:name`
  inside <code> -- a search operator, where translating it breaks the thing it
  documents. Subtrees marked translate="no" are skipped for the same reason.
- `t` is a natural name for a callback parameter and several files already use
  it, so an import called `t` is shadowed inside those callbacks -- silently,
  wherever the local happens to be callable. The name is checked per file now
  and aliased to `translate` where it is taken.
- JSX decodes HTML entities and a JS string literal does not, so
  `Language &amp; region` moved into t("...") and rendered the entity on screen.

That last one is the one worth remembering. Typecheck passed, 443 tests
passed, and the page said "Language &amp; region" in plain sight. It took
looking at a screenshot, and then a sweep of ten views to find the second
occurrence in a sentence I had written by hand earlier the same day. Nothing
in the toolchain was ever going to catch it: it is valid TypeScript rendering
valid text that happens to be wrong.

The codemod decodes entities now, and checks for a quote after decoding rather
than before.

jcoffey-dev 1e2db95577 Stop offering to share mail folders, and let a share be removed
Sharing a mail folder does nothing. `Mailbox/set` takes the `shareWith`
map, `Mailbox/get` reads it back, and the folder never appears for the
account it was shared with -- confirmed on the live 0.16.19 with a folder
shared read-only to another account on the same server, which never saw
it. Stalwart's sharing documentation lists calendars, address books and
file storage; mail folders are not among them. Nothing anywhere reports a
failure, so a client that trusts what it reads back shows the share as
live for ever, which is what happened.

The entry point is withdrawn. Address book sharing goes with it on a
report that it behaved the same way -- not reproduced, and contradicted
by Stalwart's own docs, so that one is expected back; it is out because
offering a share nobody can verify was worse than the gap. Files and
calendars are untouched.

Removing a share was impossible, for a reason worth writing down. The
dialog rendered the list of who a thing was shared with *inside* the
branch that runs when the directory has principals to offer. A server
with `allowDirectoryQueries` off returns none -- that is the default, and
it is how these shares came to be made in the first place -- so the
dialog showed one line of hint and nothing else. The share was there, and
there was no way to see it, let alone remove it. The list is now rendered
whatever the directory says; only the control for adding somebody new
depends on having somebody to add.

So the withdrawn entry points do not strand what they created: a folder
or book already shared still offers "Stop sharing", which is the one
thing you want when the share is invisible everywhere else.

The API was never the problem, which is worth recording since it was the
first guess: `shareWith: null` is accepted and clears the map, tested
against the live server on the stuck folder, which is now unshared.
