Every setting lived in localStorage, so none of them travelled between
devices. The sharpest edge is the default identity: with none set the
address that sorts first wins, so mail goes out from an address the
recipient may not recognise -- and someone who sets it at work finds it
unset at home, with nothing to say so. Reported in #54.
They now live in a settings.json in the account's own JMAP Files, beside
the signature images already kept there. ihasmail itself stays stateless:
no volume, no database, nothing to back up separately, and the settings
are covered by whatever backs up the mail store.
localStorage stays as a cache rather than the source of truth, so the
first frame is painted from it and the file corrects it a moment later.
A private window has no cache and shows defaults for that one frame,
which is the trade for not gating the whole app on a network round trip.
Not everything should follow the account. A list-pane width picked on a
27" monitor is wrong on a laptop, and the notification toggles track a
permission the browser grants per-device, so claiming it elsewhere would
be a lie. Those stay local, written as a list of exceptions so that a
setting added later syncs by default -- which is what adding one almost
always means.
Writes are coalesced: update() fires on every frame of a splitter drag,
so a change waits 3s and the newest value wins. A tab going away flushes
first, as does signing out, so a setting changed seconds before either
is not lost.
The ihasmail folder is now hidden from the Files view, contents and all.
Hiding the folder alone would have been worse than showing it: the tree
attaches a node whose parent is missing to the root, so the signature
images would have spilled into the top level as if the user had put them
there. Those images have been visible since signatures shipped.
Requires 0.16 -- FileNode/query cannot see directories before that. On
0.15 settings stay local exactly as they were.
Verified against the mock end to end: folder create, blob upload, node
create, read back, update, re-read. Not yet exercised against the live
0.16.19.
Guests added to an event vanished on save and no invitation was ever
sent. Not a guard in the editor, and nothing the server complained
about: ihasmail addresses a participant the way RFC 8984 does, with
sendTo and email, and Stalwart 0.16 keeps that address under
calendarAddress. Handed the RFC's spelling it stores the event, drops
the entire participant map, and reports success. Six shapes were tried
against a live 0.16.19, down to sendTo and roles alone; all six were
dropped, and patching a participant onto an existing event fails
outright with "Patch operation failed".
The same disagreement runs through two more properties. The organizer is
organizerCalendarAddress, not replyTo. A recurrence is a single
recurrenceRule, not a recurrenceRules array — and that one Stalwart
refuses honestly, with invalidProperties, so no recurring event could be
created at all and existing ones showed no repeat.
So writes now use Stalwart's names and reads accept either, since a
mailbox may hold events written by other clients. The mock now refuses
what the real server refuses and drops what it drops: advertising the
RFC spelling is exactly how this reached a live server unnoticed, the
same way the capability-placement bug did.
Verified against 0.16.19: participants, organizer and rule all survive a
create, an update and a re-read, with the roles kept as sent.

Rules alone were still wrong, in the other direction. A live 0.16.19 was
asked to expand a real weekly series: the occurrences come back carrying
no rule at all — only the master has one — and Stalwart spells that
master's rule "recurrenceRule", singular, not the RFC 8984 array ihasmail
looks for. So a genuine occurrence would have read as a one-off, and the
delete dialog would have offered to delete "this event" while deleting
the series.
What an occurrence does carry is a recurrenceId, which a one-off never
has. Master by its rule under either name, occurrence by its
recurrenceId. The tests carry the shapes the live server returned.
A probe against the live 0.16.19 says a one-off event comes back from an
expanded query as id "eaaaaai" with baseEventId "i" — an instance id of
its own, and a base that is a different event. The clause that treated a
differing base as an occurrence of a series would therefore have gone on
calling every event recurring, which was the bug.
So recurrence rules alone decide it. What that gives up is an expanded
instance that arrives without its rules attached; whether Stalwart does
that is still to be checked against a real series.
A one-time event opened for editing said "this is a recurring event —
changes apply to the whole series", and deleting one offered to delete
all occurrences of an event that has exactly one.
Three places asked whether an event had a baseEventId and took that for
recurrence. It isn't: the calendar loads its range with expandRecurrences,
and Stalwart puts a baseEventId on everything it returns that way, a
one-off pointing at itself included. The mock never sets the field at
all, which is why this only showed up against a real server.
They now share isRecurring(), which asks about recurrence rules, and
treats a base that is some other event as an occurrence of a series too
— so an expanded instance that travels without its rules is still
described honestly on the way to being deleted.
Fixes#25
Scheduled send, which the README listed as needing server support that
Stalwart has had all along. The delay cannot be asked for directly --
RFC 8621 makes `sendAt` read-only and server-derived -- so it goes on the
envelope as an RFC 4865 `HOLDUNTIL` parameter, and the server reports back
the time it settled on.
Stalwart advertises this in the *account* capability, not the session-level
one (which is empty): `maxDelayedSend` of thirty days and `FUTURERELEASE`
among its `submissionExtensions`. The composer offers scheduling only when
both are there, and never offers a time the server would refuse.
A held message goes to a Scheduled folder rather than Sent, because
`onSuccessUpdateEmail` would otherwise file it as sent the moment the
submission is created, and it has not been sent. Nothing moves it out when
the hold expires, so the folder is reconciled on the way in: released
messages to Sent, cancelled ones back to Drafts. Cancelling uses a separate
`Email/set` rather than `onSuccessUpdateEmail`, whose key Stalwart reads as
an Email id and not, as the RFC says, a submission id.
The mock grows the whole lifecycle, and learns to resolve creation
references while it is there -- it had been quietly declining to create any
submission at all, since sending names its message as `#m`. Because
Stalwart's own `futureRelease` setting defaults to off and then drops the
hold in silence, `npm run dev:mock:no-future-release` reproduces that.
Verified end to end against the mock; not yet 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.
Every message ihasmail sent set cc, bcc and replyTo to null when unused, and
inReplyTo/references likewise on a new message. Stalwart parses those
properties with try_into_address_list, which returns None for null, and the
create is rejected outright:
if let Some(addresses) = value.try_into_address_list() { ... }
else { response.invalid_property_create(id, header); continue 'create; }
So every send failed with "Invalid property or value.", new messages and
replies alike, regardless of attachments or signature. The mock server
accepts anything, which is why this only showed up against a real server.
Empty header properties are now omitted. On a create there is no previous
value to clear, so null was never needed - only the properties actually being
set belong in the object.
buildEmailObject is exported so the shape can be tested directly, with a
regression test that no property is ever null.
