Suppose messages A and B were delivered to the remote folder at
"maxage + 1" days ago.
A was downloaded to the local folder "maxage + 1" days ago, but B was only
downloaded "maxage - 1" days ago (contrived scenario to illustrate the two
things that could happen). The behavior was that B gets deleted from the local
folder, but A did not. The expected behavior is that neither is deleted.
Starting where Base.py: __syncmessagesto_delete(self, dstfolder, statusfolder)
is called where:
- self is the remote folder
and
- dstfolder is the local folder.
It defines deletelist to be the list of messages in the status folder
messagelist that aren't in the remote folder messagelist with
not self.uidexists(uid)
A and B are both in the status folder. They're also both *NOT* in the remote
folder messagelist: this list is formed in IMAP.py: cachemessagelist(), which
calls _msgs_to_fetch(), which only asks the IMAP server for messages that are
"< maxage" days old.
Back to Base.py __syncmessagesto_delete(), look at the call
folder.deletemessages(deletelist), where folder is the local folder. This ends
up calling Maildir.py deletemessage() for each message on the deletelist. But we
see that this methods returns (instead of deleting anything) if the message is
in the local folder's messagelist. This messagelist was created by Maildir.py's
cachemessagelist(), which calls _scanfolder(), which tries to exclude messages
based on maxage. So at this point, we *WANT* A and B to be excluded -- then they
will be spared from deletion. This maxage check calls _iswithinmaxage(), and
actually does the date comparison based on the time found at the beginning of
the message's filename. These filenames were originally created in Maildir.py's
new_message_filename(), which calls _gettimeseq() to get the current time (i.e.
the time of retrieval).
Upshot: A's filename has an older timestamp than B's filename. A is excluded
from the local folder messagelist in _scanfolder(), hence spared from deletion
in deletemessage(); B is not excluded, and is deleted.
This patch does not address the timezone issue. As for the IMAP/timezone issue,
a similar issue is discussed in the thunderbird bug tracker here:
https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=886534
In the end, they're solving a different problem, but they agree that
there is really no reliable way of guessing the IMAP server's internal
timezone.

When synclabels config flag is set to "yes" for the GMail repo,
offlineimap fetches the message labels along with the messages, and
embeds them into the body under the header X-Keywords (or whatever
'labelsheader' was set to), as a comma separated list.
It also adds an extra pass to savemessageto, that performs label
synchronization on existing messages from GMail to local, the same way
it is done with flags.
We also introduce GmailMaildir repository that adds functionality to
change message labels. It keeps track of messages modification time,
so one can quickly detect when the labels may have changed.

Rename getuidvalidity -> get_uidvalidity and cache the IMAP result.
1) Start modernizing our function names using more underscores
2) IMAPs implementation of get_uidvalidity was removing the UIDVALIDITY result
from the imaplib2 result stack, so subsequent calls would return "None".
As various functions can invoke this, this led to some errors that we
avoid by caching the current UIDVALIDITY value in the Folder instance.
There are more simplifications and improvements to be made.

Previously, assigning a new UID to a mapped IMAP or Maildir repository
was done by loading the "local" item, saving it under a new UID and
deleting the old one. This involved lots of disk activity for nothing
more than an effective file rename in Maildirs, and lots of network
usage in the MappedUID cases.
We do this on every upload from a local to a remote item, so that can
potentially be quite expensive. This patch lets backends that support it
(Maildir, MappedUID) efficiently rename the file rather than having to
read the mail content, write it out as a new file and delete the old
file. This speeds up uploads from Maildir and the MappedUID server.

If someone had a custom :2,a flag, adding a new flag would lead to the
invalid maildir filename ...a:2,... due to regex deficiencies not coping
with this. Fix this so we alway produce valid maildir names.
Note that custom flags are still problematic: as the syncing to the
remote IMAP server will fail, the next sync will assume that they have
been removed from the remote IMAP side and they will be removed from the
local Maildir then. We will need to think about how to handle this. At
least, with this patch we won't lose standard flags and won't produce
invalid maildir names.

We passed in the accountname to all derivatives of BaseFolder, such as
IMAPFolder(...,repository,...,accountname), although it is perfectly
possible to get the accountname from the Repository(). So remove this
unneeded parameter. Each backend had to define getaccountname() (although
the function is hardly used and most accessed .accountname directly).
On the other hand BaseFolder was using getaccountname but it never defined
the function. So make the sane thing, remove all definitions from backends
and define accountname() once in Basefolder. It was made a property and not
just a (public) attribute, so it will show up in our developer
documentation as public API.

Previously we were attempting to save out mails according to
http://www.qmail.org/man/man5/maildir.html in 4 steps:
1 Create a unique filename
2 Do stat(tmp/<filename>). If it found a file, wait 2 sec and go back to 1.
3 Create and write the message to the tmp/<filename>.
4 Link from tmp/* to new/*
(we did step 2 up to 15 times) But as stated by
http://wiki1.dovecot.org/MailboxFormat/Maildir (see section 'Issues with
the specification'), this is a pointless approach, e.g. there are race
issues between stating that the filename does not exist and the actual
moving (when it might exist).
So, we can simplify the steps as suggested in the dovecot wiki and
tighten up our safety at the same time.
One improvement that we do is to open the file, guaranteeing that it did
not exist before in an atomic manner, thus our simplified approach is
really more secure than what we had before.
Also, we throw an OfflineImapError at MESSAGE level when the supposedly
unique filename already exists, so that we can skip this message and
still continue with other messages.

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.
