JMAP has an extension for this -- RFC 9007's MDN/send -- and Stalwart does
not implement it, so ihasmail assembles the RFC 8098 multipart/report itself
and sends it the long way round: raw MIME uploaded as a blob, imported,
submitted. That is also why the receipt lands in Sent, which is where it
honestly belongs.
The plumbing is the easy half. A receipt tells whoever asked that the address
is live and when the message was read, to an address the sender chose, so the
refusals are the feature: nothing marked Auto-Submitted (RFC 3834, or two
servers answer each other forever), nothing carrying Precedence bulk/list/junk
or a List-Id, nothing already acknowledged, nothing that never arrived. A
receipt aimed anywhere other than the sender is offered, but says so first.
There is no "always send" setting, only ask or never.
Sending is recorded with RFC 3503's $mdnsent keyword on the original rather
than remembered locally, so a second look -- or another client entirely --
knows not to ask again. Non-ASCII parts go base64 rather than 8bit, so
nothing rests on 8BITMIME surviving every hop.
Verified against the mock end to end: the blob uploads, the receipt imports
and submits, and the original reads back marked. Not yet exercised against
the live server.
Emptying Deleted Items back-referenced one Email/query straight into one
Email/set, so every id in the folder arrived in a single call. Stalwart
refuses the whole call over maxObjectsInSet with requestTooLarge, which
left a folder of 5192 messages impossible to empty at all.
Walk the folder a page at a time instead: the filter re-runs each pass,
so the next page is whatever is still there. A pass that destroys nothing
stops the loop and reports the server's error rather than spinning.
The same defect sat in two neighbours. Delete-forever on a large
selection sent every id in one Email/set, and mark-all-read fed up to
5000 ids into an Email/get that only echoed them back - past
maxObjectsInGet, and for no gain, since the query already returned them.
Both now page through the same ceiling, read from the session rather than
hardcoded.
The mock advertised maxObjectsInSet but never enforced it, so none of
this could fail in a test. It now rejects oversized get and set calls the
way Stalwart does.
While here, restrict emptying to Deleted Items. It was offered on Junk
too, where a permanent one-shot clear is harder to justify; Junk is now
select-all plus Delete, which takes the batched path.
"Send failed: Invalid property or value." is Stalwart's description for
invalidProperties, and on its own it says nothing about what to fix. The
SetError also carries a `properties` array naming the offending fields, which
every call site was discarding.
setErrorMessage appends them, and the 35 places that surfaced a SetError -
send, save draft, mailboxes, calendars, contacts, sieve, files, signature
images, sharing - now go through it.
- Move the expand chevron into a gutter left of the folder icon so folders
with and without subfolders line up on their icon; labels share the column.
- Add "Mark all as read, incl. subfolders" to the folder context menu, with
the affected count and a per-folder fallback for servers without filter
operators.
- Re-measure the virtualised message list when row height changes.
- Mock: seed unread mail in a subfolder.
