Previously, we instanciated an MappedImapFolder, and would cleverly (too
cleverly?) invoke methods on it casting it to an IMAPFolder by calling
methods such as: self._mb.cachemessages(self) where self._MB is the class
IMAPFolder and self and instance of MappedImapFolder. If
e.g. cachemessages() invokes a method uidexists() which exists for
MappedImapFolder, but not directly in IMAPFolder, I am not sure if
Python would at some point attempt to use the method of the wrong class.
Also, this leads to some twisted thinking as our class would in same
cases act as an IMAPFolder and in some cases as an MappedImapFOlder and
it is not always clear if we mean REMOTE UID or LOCAL UID.
This commit simplifies the class, by a)doing away with the complex Mixin
construct and directly inheriting from IMAPFOlder (so we get all the
IMAPFOlder methods that we can inherit). We instantiate self._mb as a
new instance of IMAPFolder which represents the local IMAP using local
UIDs, separating the MappedIMAPFolder construct logically from the
IMAPFolder somewhat.
In the long run, I would like to remove self._mb completely and simply
override any method that needs overriding, but let us take small and
understandable baby steps here.

Folder.savemessage() is supposed to return the new UID that a backend
assigned, and it BaseFolder.copymessageto() fails if we don't return a
non-negative number in the savemessage() there.
For some reason, the UIDMappedFolder was not returning anything in
savemessage, despite clearly stating in the code docs that it is
supposed to return a UID. Not sure how long this has already been the
case. This patch fixes the UIDMappedFolder to behave as it should.

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.

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.

We were outputting full message bodies to the debug log (often stderr),

bloats debug logs A LOT.
Only output the first and last 100 bytes of each message body to the

In order to optimize performance, we fold the 1st and 2nd pass of our
sync strategy into one. They were essentially doing the same thing:
uploading a message to the other side. The only difference was that in
one case we have a negative UID locally, and in the other case, we have
a positive one already.
This saves some time, as we don't have to run through that function on
IMAP servers anyway (they always have positive UIDs), and 2nd were we
stalling further copying until phase 1 was finished. So uploading a
single new message would prevent us from starting to copy existing
regular messages.

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.

We are calling getmessagelist() internally a lot, e.g. just to check if
a UID exists (from uidexist()). This is a very expensive operation in
the UIDMapped case, as we reconstruct the whole messagelist dict every
single time, involving lots of copying etc.
So we provide more efficient implementations for the uidexists()
getmessageuidlist() and getmessagecount() functions that are fast in the
UIDMapped case. This should solve the performance regression that was
recently observed in the Mapped UID case.

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

imaplibutil.new_mesg.
* offlineimap/imaplibutil.py: We override IMAP4_SSL.open, whose

The previous syncing strategy was doing more than we needed to and was a
bit underdocumented. This is an attempt to clean it up.
1) Do away with the previous different code paths depending on
whether there is a LocalStatus file or not (the isnewfolder() test). We
always use the same strategy now, which makes the strategy easier to
understand. This strategy is simply:
a) Sync remote to local folder first
b) Sync local to remote
Where each sync implies a 4 pass strategy which does basically the same
as before (explained below).
2) Don't delete messages on LOCAL which don't exist on REMOTE right at
the beginning anymore. This prevented us e.g. from keeping local
messages rather than redownloading everything once LocalStatus got
corrupted or deleted. This surprised many who put in an existing local
maildir and expected it to be synced to the remote place. Instead, the
local maildir was deleted. This is a data loss that actually occured to
people!
3) No need to separately sync the statusfolder, we update that one
simultanously with the destfolders...
3) Simplified the sync function API by only taking one destdir rather
than a list of destdirs, we never used more anyway. This makes the code
easier to read.
4) Added plenty of code comments while I was going through to make sure
the strategy is easy to understand.
-----------------------------------------
Pass1: Transfer new local messages
Upload msg with negative/no UIDs to dstfolder. dstfolder should
assign that message a new UID. Update statusfolder.
Pass2: Copy existing messages
Copy messages in self, but not statusfolder to dstfolder if not
already in dstfolder. Update statusfolder.
Pass3: Remove deleted messages
Get all UIDS in statusfolder but not self. These are messages
that we have locally deleted. Delete those from dstfolder and
statusfolder.
Pass4: Synchronize flag changes
Compare flags in self with those in statusfolder. If msg has a
valid UID and exists on dstfolder (has not e.g. been deleted
there), sync the flag change to dstfolder and statusfolder.
The user visible implications of this change should be unnoticable
except in one situation:
Blowing away LocalStatus will not require you to redownload ALL of
your mails if you still have the local Maildir. It will simply recreate
LocalStatus.
