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.

Closes #174

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 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 be1d787b5f Defend against Chrome rewriting the DOM, and add the language setting
Groundwork for un-shelving translations. Chrome's translator rewrites the
rendered DOM directly, wrapping text nodes in <font> elements React has never
heard of, and the next update can then call removeChild against a parent whose
children have moved (facebook/react#11538). This is the structural defence
against that, plus the setting the served language will read from.

The language setting is `uiLanguage`, and it is deliberately not the `locale`
field that already exists. That one is a formatting choice -- what calendar,
clock and numerals to use -- and folding the two together would silently
rewrite everybody's date format the first time they picked a language. German
dates with an English interface is a real preference, and so is the reverse.
It defaults to English when absent, which covers both a new account and every
settings file written before this, and Accept-Language is not consulted: a
served locale should be something the reader chose rather than something
guessed and then written down as though they had. Only languages with strings
shipped are offered, which today means English alone -- a picker entry without
a catalogue behind it would leave the page claiming a language it is not in,
which stops a reader translating a page they cannot read.

`<html lang>` is set where applyTheme is set: at store module load, from the
localStorage cache, before createRoot() has rendered anything. Not in an
effect -- a lang that is briefly wrong is enough to raise the translate prompt
on a page that needed none. There is no server-rendered alternative to reach
for here: ihasmail serves a static shell and holds no account state, and the
settings file lives in the reader's own JMAP Files, so reading it before the
page existed would mean authenticating to Stalwart on every page load. The
static lang="en" in index.html covers the first bytes; the store only ever
corrects a reader who chose otherwise. Both halves are tested.

translate="no" and class="notranslate" go on the narrow boundaries only:
rendered email bodies, raw message source, attachment text, the generated and
hand-edited Sieve, the brand and the login name. Not on <body> -- someone
whose language ihasmail does not speak yet should still be able to translate
the parts that are ours. Email bodies turn out to live in a shadow root, so
React never reconciles them and they were never a crash risk; the marker there
is about not rewriting what a sender actually wrote.

Twenty-four fragile interpolation points were found with the TypeScript
parser rather than grep, and fifteen refactored. Pluralisation and
"count + label" pairs are collapsed into a single expression so the text is a
lone child React updates with textContent, rather than a text node with
conditional siblings to insert around. One of them -- InviteCard's
{method === "REPLY" && organizer ? "" : ""} -- rendered an empty string either
way and is simply gone.

The boundary is scoped to the main content, so the header, folder tree and any
open composer sit outside it and survive independently. It recovers by
remounting the subtree, which costs nothing because everything inside
re-derives from the stores, and it logs at info rather than error: a reader
translating a page is expected and recovered from, and filing it as an error
would put an entry in every console-reading reporter for behaviour that
worked. It re-raises anything that is not a DOM mutation error, so a real bug
still surfaces as one, and it gives up after three attempts rather than
looping invisibly.

Worth recording: the crash could not be reproduced on React 19.2.8. Wrapping
207-249 React-managed text nodes in <font>, exactly as the translator does,
then driving in-place conditional toggles and navigations, left the app intact
with the boundary never firing. The original issue is from React 16 and the
reconciler has changed a great deal since. So this lands as defence whose
premise is weaker than assumed rather than as a fix for something observed
here, and the boundary is insurance rather than a load-bearing part. The
notranslate markers and the collapsed interpolations stand on their own merits
either way.

jcoffey-dev 350f4f4197 Put address books in the left pane, other people's included
Address book sharing was withdrawn a few hours ago on a report that it
behaved like mail folder sharing. That was wrong -- it works -- and it is
back, built the way Files is rather than the way it was.

Three things it inherits from Files. Shared books are listed in the app's
own left pane instead of behind an account switch in the profile menu.
The reader's books and other people's sit under separate headings, since
a book belonging to somebody else behaves differently and a single merged
list would be quiet about whose contacts you are reading. And opening
Contacts re-reads the session, so a book shared while the tab was open
turns up without signing out and in again.

The books pane the view kept to itself is gone, and with it the last
module that ignored the sidebar it was given.

The one thing Files does not need: shared contacts have to answer when
somebody types a name into a To field, so they are loaded up front rather
than when a book is opened, and they are offered by `suggest` and found
by `lookupByEmail` alongside the reader's own. Their own cards win a tie,
since a card someone wrote themselves should beat a colleague's copy of
the same person. That is the difference between a shared book you can
look at and one you can use.

Cards from a shared account are held apart from the reader's rather than
merged in, and keyed by account as well as id. Ids are only unique within
an account -- two accounts each having a book `ab1` is ordinary -- and a
flat map would have had one silently replace the other.

The mock grew an address book in its shared account, with contacts in it,
because none of this could be exercised otherwise.

KNOWN-ISSUES records the withdrawal as the mistake it was rather than
leaving it in the history looking like a finding. Mail folder sharing
stays withdrawn: that one really is broken.

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.

jcoffey-dev d82ff15921 Configurable date and time formats, defaulting to the Stalwart locale
Every user-visible date now goes through web/src/lib/datetime.ts, driven by
three settings (Settings > General > Locale):

- Language & region: automatic, or any of the 618 locales CLDR has data for,
  each named in its own language and script (web/src/lib/locales.ts, generated
  by probing Intl over the subtag space).
- Date format: automatic (locale order), 22.11.2025, 22/11/2025, 11/22/2025,
  or ISO 8601 2025-11-22.
- Time format: automatic (locale), 24-hour, or 12-hour.

Automatic takes the locale Stalwart has for the account, read best-effort at
login via x:Account/get (urn:stalwart:jmap) and passed to the client in the
session; servers without the capability, or that deny sysAccountGet to a
regular user, fall back to the browser locale. POSIX forms are normalised
(de_DE.UTF-8 -> de-DE) and script modifiers kept (sr_RS@latin -> sr-Latn-RS,
uz_UZ@cyrillic -> uz-Cyrl-UZ), while dialect/variant/currency modifiers are
dropped and a script the locale already implies is not appended.

Numerals follow the locale (22.11.2025 renders as Arabic-Indic digits under
ar-EG); ISO 8601 is the exception and pins date and clock to Latin digits so
one line never mixes digit systems.

Rewired: message list and headers, quoted reply headers, calendar (titles,
weekday and hour gutters, mini calendar, agenda, popovers, invite cards,
free/busy), contacts, files, sessions. No raw toLocale*String date calls are
left in web/src.

Native <input type="datetime-local"> pickers always follow the browser locale
and cannot be restyled by a page, so the out-of-office fields echo the entered
instant in the chosen format underneath.

Also: month-grid day labels no longer wrap when they hold a date, and the mock
server serves x:Account/get (MOCK_LOCALE, default en_US).
