fe388400c4 Better error message when FETCH fails.
We were not including the full server reply into our error message. Fix

194aa1db3c Catch 'BAD' replies on append()ing a message
append() raises an Exception, in case the IMAP server replies with 'BAD'
(but not when it responds with 'NO') but we were not catching that. Do
catch the situation and also raise an OfflineImapError at MESSAGE
severity, so that we can continue with the next message.

f6b9c68333 IMAP: Don't use assert() in folder.savemessage()
We simply assert()ed that APPENDing a message returned OK, but in some
cases (e.g. Google chat messages) APPEND might return BAD or NO too. We
should be throwing an OfflineImapError here at MESSAGE level, so that we
can continue to sync all other messages, and still give the user some
details on what went wrong at the end of the sync run.

d5cbdc4c0e Handle when UID can't be found on saved messages
Message was stored to dstfolder, but we can't find it's UID. This means we can't
link current message to the one created in IMAP. So we just delete local message
and on next run we'll sync it back. Also fixed imap.savemessage description.

86e9c7442b Include message header at better place
It's not enough to place header after first newline, since this might break
multiline rfc0822 folded long header lines. Those are difined as CRLF followed
by white space. Instead we'll search for two successive CRLF sequences which
mark end of mail headers and place our header just before that.

856982a4e6 Throw OfflineImapError when we try to request an inexistant message
During a sync run, someone might remove or move IMAP messages. As we
only cache the list of UIDs in the beginning, we might be requesting
UIDs that don't exist anymore. Protect folder.IMAP.getmessage() against
the response that we get when we ask for unknown UIDs.

Also, if the server responds with anything else than "OK", (eg. Gmail
seems to be saying frequently ['NO', 'Dave I can't let you do that now']
:-) so we should also be throwing OfflineImapErrors here rather than
AssertionErrors.

e8b633b884 folder/IMAP: Remove buggy duplicate assignment
we do:
  for msgid in imapdata:

   maxmsgid = long(imapdata[0])

assigning is the correct one. The second had been forgotten to be
removed when we introduced the above iteration. This bug would fix a

c70a621709 Limit msg body length in debug output
We were outputting full message bodies to the debug log (often stderr),
and then again (as they go over the imaplib2 wire, imaplib logs
everything too). Not only is quite a privacy issue when sending in debug
logs but it can also freeze a console for quite some time. Plus it
bloats debug logs A LOT.

Only output the first and last 100 bytes of each message body to the
debug log (we still get the full body from imaplib2 logging). This
limits privacy issues when handing the log to someone else, but usually
still contains all the interesting bits that we want to see in a log.

36eb37b47d IMAP: reduce quickchanged() checks
For each folder we were making a second IMAP request asking for the
latest UID and compared that with the highest UID in our
statusfolder. This catched the case that 1 mail has been deleted by
someone else and another one has arrived since we checked, so that the
total number of mails appears to not have changed.

We don't capture anymore this case in the quickchanged() case.

It improves my performance from 8 to about 7.5 seconds per check (with lots of
variation) and we would benefit even more in the IMAP<->IMAP case as we do one
additional IMAP lookup per folder on each side then.

Do cleanups on whitespaces while in this file.

09515f8f90 Increase compatability with Gmail
When uploading a new message to Gmail we need to find out the UID it
assigned it, but Gmail does not advertize the UIDPLUS extension (in all
cases) and it fails to find the email that we just uploaded when
searching for it. This prevented us effectively from uploading to
gmail.

See analysis in
http://lists.alioth.debian.org/pipermail/offlineimap-project/2011-March/001449.html
for details on what is going wrong.

This patch increases compatability with Gmail by checking for APPENDUID
responses to an APPEND action even if the server did not claim to
support it. This restores the capability to upload messages to the
*broken* Gmail IMAP implementation.

fd28c5a2d3 folder/IMAP: savemessage() should just save flags if uid already exists
As the LocalStatus and UIDMap backend already did: If the uid already
exists for savemessage(), only modify the flags and don't append a new
message.

We don't invoke savemessage() on messages that already exist in our sync
logic, so this has no change on our current behavior. But it makes
backends befave more consistent with each other.

1bf4bee5e6 Update to match semantics of new imaplib2
The biggest change here is that imapobj.untagged_responses is no
longer a dictionary, but a list. To access it, I use the semi-private
_get_untagged_response method.

* offlineimap/folder/IMAP.py (IMAPFolder.quickchanged,
  IMAPFolder.cachemessagelist): imaplib2 now explicitly removes its
  EXISTS response on select(), so instead we use the return values from
  select() to get the number of messages.

* offlineimap/imapserver.py (UsefulIMAPMixIn.select): imaplib2 now
  stores untagged_responses for different mailboxes, which confuses us
  because it seems like our mailboxes are "still" in read-only mode when
  we just re-opened them.  Additionally, we have to return the value
  from imaplib2's select() so that the above thing works.

* offlineimap/imapserver.py (UsefulIMAPMixIn._mesg): imaplib2 now
  calls _mesg with the name of a thread, so we display this
  information in debug output. This requires a corresponding change to
  imaplibutil.new_mesg.

* offlineimap/imaplibutil.py: We override IMAP4_SSL.open, whose
  default arguments have changed, so update the default arguments. We
  also subclass imaplib.IMAP4 in a few different places, which now
  relies on having a read_fd file descriptor to poll on.

2946a1ea5d Convert rfc822 module to email module
The rfc822 module has been deprecated since python 2.3, and conversion to
the email module is straightforward, so let us do that. rfc822 is
completely gone in python3.

This also fixes a bug that led to offlineimap abortion (but that code path
is apparently usually not exercised so I did not notice:
rfc822|email.utils.parsedate return a tuple which has no named attributes,
but we were using them later in that function. So pass the tuple into a
struct_time() to get named attributes.

While reading the docs, I noticed that email.parsedate returns invalid
daylight savings information (is_dst attribute), and we are using it
anyway. Oh well, the imap server might think the mails are off by an hour
at worst.

d22c762385 Factor out the date guessing/retrieving
savemessage was too long and complex. Factor out the date guessing part
of the function and put it into a function of its own. The logic of the
date guessing is the same, however, we do not use the
imaplib.Time2InternalDate() function as it is buggy
(http://bugs.python.org/issue11024) and returns localized patches. So we
create INTERNALDATE ourselves and pass it to append() as a string.

This commit fixes a bug that international users used to pass an invalid
date to the IMAP server, which the server will either ignore or complain
about.

419f27418e Simplify & document savemessage_getnewheader
savemessage_getnewheader was an undocmented, cryptic and overengineered
function. It generates a new unique value that can be used as a mail
header to be inserted. For this it used LOTS of randomness sources: hash
of the mail content, hash of the folder name, hash of the repository
name, the current time, a random() value, and the offlineimap version string.
All we need is something random. So reduce this to hash of content
appended by a random integer. Sufficient and somewhat faster to calculate.

Rename the function to actually describe accurately what it does or
would you have guessed that savemessage_getnewheader() did nothing more
than returning ('X-OfflineIMAP', <randomstring> )? Rename to
generate_randomheader() to make it clearer what this is all about.

Also document the function, describing what it does, and what it returns.

573d7ed52a Change X-OfflineIMAP header format
Change the X-OfflineIMAP header to work around possible Exchange MAPI
table overflow problem described in
http://article.gmane.org/gmane.mail.imap.offlineimap.general/1699
(It is unknown whether this problem still exits in current
Exchange versions, but let's assume the worst.)

The X-OfflineIMAP header is neccessary with some IMAP servers to
reliably determine the UID of a new messages uploaded to the server
by using the "UID SEARCH HEADER name string" command.  Since this
command compares header name and value it is sufficient to have
a unique header value and a non-unique header name.

Note that a message can have more than one X-OfflineIMAP header if
the message was copied between IMAP folders multiple times.

Subject: [PATCH] Patch to provide maxage and maxsize account options to exclude old/large messages

This is designed to make offlineimap even better for low bandwidth connections.

maxage allows you to specify a number of days and only messages within
that range will be considered by offlineimap for the sync.  This can be
useful if you would like to start using offlineimap with a large
existing account and do not want to import large archives of mail.

maxsize allows you to specify the maximum size of a message to consider so
that you can exclude messages with large attachments etc.

In both cases the cachemessagelist function of the folder was modified to ignore
messages that do not meet the criteria.  If the criteria are not specified
then the existing code will be executed the same as before.  If a message
does not meet the criteria it will be as though this message does not exist
- offlineimap will completely ignore it.  It will not have flags updated,
it will not be deleted, it will not be considered at all.

When operating against an IMAP repository a server side search function
is used.  This of course requires support for server side search.

I have tested this with either option, no options etc. against IMAP, Maildir
and Gmail.  I have run variations of this patch here for the last 3 weeks or
so syncing about 4 accounts normally.

08a579657a Fix handling of servers that return UIDs in some FETCH responses
closes #22

from pistore in OfflineIMAP #22:

When an IMAP flag update is performed for multiple messages, some IMAP
servers (e.g. Exchange) return the UID attribute only for some of the
FETCH untagged responses, as shown in the following log:

21:19.04 > DCKF8 UID STORE 66050,50613,52164,40043,40055,25874 +FLAGS
(\Deleted)
21:19.36 < * 35 FETCH (FLAGS (\Seen \Deleted) UID 25874)
21:19.36 < * 321 FETCH (FLAGS (\Seen \Deleted))
21:19.57 < * 322 FETCH (FLAGS (\Seen \Deleted))
21:19.57 < * 560 FETCH (FLAGS (\Seen \Deleted))
21:19.57 < * 581 FETCH (FLAGS (\Seen \Deleted) UID 52164)
21:19.62 < * 1022 FETCH (FLAGS (\Seen \Deleted))
21:19.62 < DCKF8 OK STORE completed.

Function IMAPFolder.processmessagesflags is able to manage the servers
which return the UID and the servers which do not return it, but is
not able to deal with the mixed behavior shown above.

The problem is that the fragment of function
IMAPFolder.processmessagesflags that handles the responses with UID
attribute uses variable flags to store the list of flags of the
message in the IMAP format ("flags = attributehashFLAGS?"), while the
fragment that handles the responses without UID expects variable
"flags" to contain the list of modified flags passed to the function
in Maildir format ("self.messagelist[uid]flags?.append(flag)").

As a consequence, the wrong list of flags is used for the messages
without UID, leading to the addition of "strange" flags to the Maildir
messages:

Syncing messages IMAP[INBOX] -> Maildir[.]
Adding flags   to 4 messages  on Maildir[.]
Adding flags e to 4 messages  on Maildir[.]
Adding flags d to 4 messages  on Maildir[.]
Adding flags ) to 4 messages  on Maildir[.]
Adding flags ( to 4 messages  on Maildir[.]
Adding flags l to 4 messages  on Maildir[.]
Adding flags n to 4 messages  on Maildir[.]
Adding flags t to 4 messages  on Maildir[.]
Adding flags \ to 4 messages  on Maildir[.]
Adding flags D to 4 messages  on Maildir[.]
Deleting flags T to 4 messages on Maildir[.]
Adding flags   to 4 messages  on LocalStatus[.]
Adding flags e to 4 messages  on LocalStatus[.]
Adding flags d to 4 messages  on LocalStatus[.]
Adding flags ) to 4 messages  on LocalStatus[.]
Adding flags ( to 4 messages  on LocalStatus[.]
Adding flags l to 4 messages  on LocalStatus[.]
Adding flags n to 4 messages  on LocalStatus[.]
Adding flags t to 4 messages  on LocalStatus[.]
Adding flags \ to 4 messages  on LocalStatus[.]
Adding flags D to 4 messages  on LocalStatus[.]
Deleting flags T to 4 messages on LocalStatus[.]

Fix: use a different variable to store IMAP flags when managing
messages corresponding to responses with UID attribute, e.g.:

Unfortunately I have to fetch some of my mail from an Exchange server
(Microsoft Exchange Server 2003 IMAP4rev1 server version 6.5.7638.1)
and I can confirm that the analysis of the problem is correct, and the
patch given here fixes the problem.

Looking at the code of the processmessagesflags() method I think it
generally is a bug that the "flags" parameter is reused as a local
variable, since the final "for uid in needupdate:" loop needs the
original value of "flags". This only worked by accident.

I'm attaching a unidiff version of the patch which applies cleanly
against Debian unstable's offlineimap 5.99.4.

c305d63e00 fix behaviour for delete/expunge, when lacking rights
This patch maneuvers around python imaplib's mysterious read-only detection
algorithm and correctly calls the UI's deletetoreadonly(), when trying to
delete/expunge in a mailbox without having the necessary rights.

fixes deb#433732

Date: Sun, 30 Sep 2007 13:54:56 -0400
From: Daniel Jacobowitz <drow@false.org>
To: offlineimap@complete.org
Subject: Assorted patches

Here's the result of a lazy Sunday hacking on offlineimap.  Sorry for
not breaking this into multiple patches.  They're mostly logically
independent so just ask if that would make a difference.
First, a new -q (quick) option.  The quick option means to only update
folders that seem to have had significant changes.  For Maildir, any
change to any message UID or flags is significant, because checking
the flags doesn't add a significant cost.  For IMAP, only a change to
the total number of messages or a change in the UID of the most recent
message is significant.  This should catch everything except for
flags changes.

The difference in bandwidth is astonishing: a quick sync takes 80K
instead of 5.3MB, and 28 seconds instead of 90.

There's a configuration variable that lets you say every tenth sync
should update flags, but let all the intervening ones be lighter.


Second, a fix to the UID validity problems many people have been
reporting with Courier.  As discussed in Debian bug #433732, I changed
the UID validity check to use SELECT unless the server complains that
the folder is read-only.  This avoids the Courier bug (see the Debian
log for more details).  This won't fix existing validity errors, you
need to remove the local status and validity files by hand and resync.


Third, some speedups in Maildir checking.  It's still pretty slow
due to a combination of poor performance in os.listdir (never reads
more than 4K of directory entries at a time) and some semaphore that
leads to lots of futex wake operations, but at least this saves
20% or so of the CPU time running offlineimap on a single folder:

Time with quick refresh and md5 in loop: 4.75s user 0.46s system 12%
cpu 41.751 total
Time with quick refresh and md5 out of loop: 4.38s user 0.50s system
14% cpu 34.799 total
Time using string compare to check folder: 4.11s user 0.47s system 13%
cpu 34.788 total


And fourth, some display fixes for Curses.Blinkenlights.  I made
warnings more visible, made the new quick sync message cyan, and
made all not explicitly colored messages grey.  That last one was
really bugging me.  Any time OfflineIMAP printed a warning in
this UI, it had even odds of coming out black on black!


Anyway, I hope these are useful.  I'm happy to revise them if you see
a problem.
