e20d8b9679 Remove upload neguid pass from sync logic
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.

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.

ca012d3a81 Implement more efficient functions for the MappedUID case
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.

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.

3eee821382 Simplify the syncing strategy a bit
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.

fc03475b9e Remove thread Lock() when saving UIDvalidity
Removing this lock makes the function not threadsafe, but then it is
only ever called from one thread, the main account syncer. Also, it
doesn't make it worse than most of the other functions in that class

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.

760698253b LocalStatus: Don't ignore Exceptions on os.fsync
Earlier we would ignore *ALL* Exceptions that could occur during the
fsyncing of our LocalStatus database. Ignoring all Exceptions is not the
right thing here though. A recent commit improved the situation by
raising at least KeyboardInterrupt Exceptions, but that is still not
optimal.

os.fsync() is available on Unix, and Windows starting in python
2.2.3. so it should always work. If it doesn't, something is wrong.

It has been suggested to only catch EnvironmentError (ie SystemError and
OSError) here, but even those should be thrown. Something *is* wrong if
this fails and we should not ignore it.

Previously we did not catch KeyboardInterrupts explicitly as all of the
code was executed in forked child threads which would never receive
Ctrl-c exceptions. With the upcoming single threaded modus, this code
can be run in the main thread however, so we need to take care of

This was done wherever we would catch *ALL* exceptions universally and

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.

caa7d8a128 much faster deleting of messages from LocalStatus
After tens of thousands of messages on the IMAP server were deleted it
takes offlineimap extremely long time (several hours of high CPU usage)
to delete them locally. It spends almost all the time modifying
LocalStatus. It processes the messages one by one, rewriting the
folder's status file in LocalStatus after each message.

It is much more efficient to save the status file only once, after
removing all the messages from the messagelist.

Deleting lots of messages now takes seconds instead of hours.

30344587d9 Patch for error handling / separation of accounts etc.
Dear All,
I have made the attached patch to try and make offlineimap a bit more
stable in challenging situations.  It's extremely useful in slow
connection environments - but sometimes if one account had the wrong
password or the connection went down then unfortunately the whole
program would crash.

I have tested this on our connection and tried throwing at it just about
every situation - connection, up down, up, down again, change password,
error whilst copying one message, etc.  I have been running this patch
for the last 5 days or so syncing 6 accounts at the moment...  It seems
to work and stay alive nicely (even if your connection does not)...

Hope that this can go in for the next release... Please let me know if
anyone notices any problems with this...

Regards,

-Mike

Subject: [PATCH] This patch attempts to introduce a little more error handling - e.g.
 if one account has an error because of a changed password or something
 that should not affect the other accounts.

Specifically:
If one sync run has an issue this is in a try-except clause - if it
has an auto refresh period the thread will sleep and try again - this
could be quite useful in the event of the connection going down for a
little while, changed password etc.

If one folder cannot be created an error message will be displayed through
the UI and the program will continue (e.g. permission denied to create a folder)

If one message does not want to copy for whatever resaon an error message
will be displayed through the UI and at least the other messages will
be copied

If one folder run has an exception then the others will still run

Dear All,
Attached is the patch that I have developed to provide maxage and
maxsize options.  You can thus sync only the last x days of messages and
exclude large messages.  All details in the attached git file.

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.

As encfs does not support hard linking, the rename of the temporary
message file fails.

This is the only occurrence of hard linking in offlineimap and can be
fixed by using an atomic `os.rename` instead of `os.link`+`os.unlink`.
I have been using the attached patch for more than 1.5 years and have
never again had any problems with offlineimap on encfs.

db805043f2 Attempt to fix a crashing bug in Gmail driver
refs deb#469598

Bug report received in Debian.  User is having occasional trouble with Gmail
driver crashing, indicates problem may have started after switching to Gmail.

Gmail driver merged to tree in 81b86fb74 on 2008-01-03 and recently released
in beta tarballs.

BT shows:

  File "/var/lib/python-support/python2.4/offlineimap/folder/Gmail.py", line 102, in processmessagesflags
    attributehash = imaputil.flags2hash(imaputil.imapsplit(result)[1])
  File "/var/lib/python-support/python2.4/offlineimap/imaputil.py", line 88, in imapsplit
    for i in range(len(imapstring)):
TypeError: len() of unsized object

imap debug log shows:

imap:   29:58.16 > BEAL75 UID STORE 4887 +FLAGS (\Deleted)
imap:   29:58.47 < BEAL75 OK Success

imap: imapsplit() called with input: None
imap: imapsplit() got a non-string input; working around.

looking at code for Gmail.py processmessagesflags, comments from Ricardo
indicate it was copied from the same function in folder/IMAP.py.

However, folder/IMAP.py has checks for this, added 2002-07-12 in
5342dacc & 817a10ce.  Suspect that Gmail author believed those checks
superfluous for Gmail.

Copied checks from folder/IMAP.py to folder/Gmail.py.

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.:

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

From: martin f krafft
Subject: race condition in Maildir writing

The offlineimap Maildir code checks for file existence and then
opens a file. That's open to a race condition. It's better to open
the file and fail if it already exists. The following patch does
this. It catches OSError 17 (file exists) and re-raises all others.
I'll leave it up to you to decide whether this is appropriate.

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.

2323fdcdb3 Additional date validity check
patch from Mike Gerber

Two times today I have found my offlineimap to have died with this same
situation. It appears as if certain types of messages (both spam in my
situation), cause offlineimap to choke. When it does it cannot proceed.
This means that when I run offlineimap, it pulls in messages from some
folders, then it hits the folder with the bad message and dies, leaving
undownloaded mail on the server. The only fix to this problem is to find
the problem message on the server and remove it by hand. This isn't such
a huge deal for me, since I run the server, but other people have to
come to me to ask me to delete these messages, and until I do they
cannot download their email.

I have captured the output by running script during one of these
incidents, this has been attached. Additionally, I have also attach the 
problematic message.

The patch seems to work for me, might need some Python wizard and better 
testing, though.

03488ba81b Sync INTERNALDATE <-> mtime
The attached patch adds syncing the INTERNALDATE of IMAP folders with
the mtime of messages in maildir folders.
I want this to happen, because I'm running a dovecot over the maildirs
synced by offlineimap, and that uses the mtime as the INTERNALDATE.
When using mutt to view messages I generally sort based on the received
date, which for IMAP folders is the INTERNALDATE.

Since this is the first real coding I've done in Python the patch may
need to be cleaned up some, but it's working pretty well for me.  I've
added new messages to each side, and the received date has been
preserved going both ways.

0841e03a4c [319117] Unroll loop to speed performance on large folders
From: "Nikita V. Youshchenko"
I trued to use offlineimap and found that while being quite fast on
small folders, it takes up to several minutes (of 100% busy CPU and
almost no network traffic) to sync a folder with 2000+ messages.

While looking into the code, I found why this happens.
In folder/Base.py, in method BaseFolder.syncmessagesto_copy(),
dest.getmessagelist() is called inside a loop, while being a loop
invariant. Similar thing happens in BaseFolder.syncmessagesto_delete()
for self.getmessagelist().
This causes quadratic complexity over folder size.

Moving these calls out of loops make large folder sync fast (several
seconds instead of several minutes for folder with 2000 messages on
700MHz P3).
