4e28c7c93f Allow to use nicer UI names
The previous ui names were pretty unwieldy. Is it TTYUI.TTY or
TTY.TTYUI? Do I have to use capitals and where?

Simplify the names by making them case insensitive and by dropping
everything before the dot.

So "Curses.Blinkenlights" can now be invoked as "blinkenlights" or
"BLINKENLIGHTS". The old names will still work just fine so the
transition should be smooth. We issue a warning that the long names are
deprecated.

Document in offlineimap.conf that we don't accept lists of fallback UIs,
but only one UI option (this was already the case before this commit but
still wrongly documented).

The list of accepted ui names is:
  ttyui (default), basic, quiet, machineui, blinkenlights

c44e94d64a Set maxconnections default to 2
Multithreading speeds up account syncing a lot and the offlineimap
defaults are very conservative. Let's make it use 2 IMAP connections by
default to gain some of the benefits that offlineimap offers.

45e0b233a5 signal handler should only be called with 2 args
I accidentally added "self" as first parameter to the signal handler
method. Of course it is not called with a class instance, the signal
handler always only receives 2 parameters: the signal number and the
stack frame. So just removing the self fixes things.

b81b7d6001 Implement true single-threading
Previously, we would spawn child threads for account synchronization
even if we had single-threading enabled. This prevented us from catching
the true location of exceptions, for example. Now, in single-threaded
mode, we perform the account synchronization truely in the main thread
which will ease our debugging.

383ae9e647 Catch SystemExit and KeyboardInterrupt exceptions
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
KeyboardInterrupts explicitly. As this is pretty highlevel code, we also
protect against receiving a SystemExit exception which is raised e.g. in
the ui.terminate() code by calling sys.exit().

c3540de763 Remove ui.detector class
The ui.detector class was not really needed and leads to the illusion
that we provide GUI plugins. For the sake of code maintainability we
don't :-).

Rather than having GUI names equivalent to the classes they are in
(which leads to weird names like TTY.TTYUI), this patch allows to give
each GUI an arbitrary string name. GUI names remain still unchanged in
this patch, the default UI when none was configured is TTY.TTYUI.

Move central constant definitions into __init__.py.  This does away
with version.py which contained nothing else and __init__.py is where
things like __VERSION__ are usually defined.

This commit also changes code to use offlineimap.__version__ rather
than offlineimap.version.__version__ as was before. Cleaned up some
duplicate or unneeded imports while touching those, formatting import
statements per PEP8 (one import per row).

85e8aea94f Convert to use OptionParser for command line handling.
Move the command line option handling from the more manual "getopts"
module to the full fledged "OptionParser". It has the advantage of
e.g. automatically creating the Help text that is shown with the
"-h/--help" option rather than having to hardcode the text and
format the line breaking manually.

Also, do away with the version check when invoking OfflineImap so we
do not have to change the version number in three places when bumping
it.

Rename startup() to run() which sounds more in line what other modules
call their run functions (e.g. Thread.run()).

325dd833ba Make a main class OfflineImap that is being called
Rather than calling a function in a module, invoke offlineimap by
calling an OfflineImap object.

This removes code lying outside of objects; I prefer to keep code
within an object and provides us with a nicer Object encapsulation.

It will also ease the testing of Object functionality in unittests
when they are introduced.

Previously we would import and start Offlineimap like this:

from offlineimap import init
init.startup('6.2.0')

now we do:
from offlineimap import OfflineImap

offlineimap = OfflineImap()
offlineimap.startup('6.2.0')

Good catch. I attach an updated patch which I've tested and it appears
to work fine, including not syncing two accounts twice.

Subject: [PATCH] Respect order of general.accounts config setting.

This makes the order of account synchronisation the same as the order of
the general.accounts setting by using a list instead of a dict, which
was actually pointless as the value of each dict item was never even
looked at.

e1fb9492f8 Patch for signal handling to start a sync by Jim Pryor
Here's the way I'd like to use offlineimap on my laptop:
    1. Have a regular cron job running infrequently. The cron job
    checks to see
if I'm online, plugged in, and that no other copy of offlineimap is
running. If
all of these conditions are satisfied, it runs offlineimap just once:
"offlineimap -o -u Noninteractive.Quiet"

    2. When I start up mutt, I do it by calling a wrapper script that
    delays
until cron-started copies of offlineimap have finished, then starts
    offlineimap
on its regular, stay-alive and keep checking schedule. When I quit
    mutt, the
wrapper script tells offlineimap to stop.

This way I get frequent regular checks while I have mutt running, but
I don't
waste my battery/cpu checking frequently for mail when I'm not
interested in
it.

To make this work, though, it'd be nicer if it were easier to tell
offlineimap,
from the outside, things like "terminate cleanly now" and "when you've
finished
synching, then terminate instead of sleeping and synching again."

OK, to put my money where my mouth is, I attach two patches against
offlineimap
6.0.3.

The first, "cleanup.patch", cleans up a few spots that tend to throw
exceptions
for me as offlineimap is exiting from a KeyboardInterrupt.

The second adds signaling capabilities to offlineimap.

* sending a SIGTERM tells offlineimap to terminate immediately but
  cleanly,
  just as if "q" had been pressed in the GUI interface

* sending a SIGUSR1 tells every account to do a full sync asap: if
  it's
  sleeping, then wake up and do the sync now. If it's mid-sync, then
  re-synch
  any folders whose syncing has already been started or completed, and
  continue
  to synch the other, queued but not-yet-synched folders.

* sending a SIGHUP tells every account to die as soon as it can (but
  not
  immediately: only after finishing any synch it's now engaged in)

* sending a SIGUSR2 tells every account to do a full sync asap (as
  with
  SIGUSR1), then die

It's tricky to mix signals with threads, but I think I've done this
correctly.
I've been using it now for a few weeks without any obvious
problems. But I'm passing it
on so that others can review the code and test it out on their
systems. I developed the
patch when I was running Python 2.5.2, but to my knowledge I don't use
any Python 2.5-specific
code. Now I'm using the patch with Python 2.6.

Although I said "without any obvious problems," let me confess that
I'm
seeing offlineimap regularly choke when I do things like this: start
up
my offlineimap-wrapped copy of mutt, wait a while, put the machine to
sleep (not sure if offlineimap is active in the background or idling),
move to a different spot, wake the machine up again and it acquires a
new network, sometimes a wired network instead of wifi. Offlineimap
doesn't like that so much. I don't yet have any reason to think the
problems here come from my patches. But I'm just acknowledging them,
so
that if others are able to use offlineimap without any difficulty in
situations like I described, then maybe the fault is with my patches.

3305d8cd4d Daniel Jacobowitz patches
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.
