### OfflineIMAP v7.1.5 (2018-01-13)
#### Notes
This minor release fixes a bug about maxage failing to upload some emails. Also,
this introduces the snapcraft.yaml to package offlineimap with this packaging
system.
This release was tested by:
- Nicolas Sebrecht
- Remi Locherer
#### Authors
- Nicolas Sebrecht (4)
- Evan Dandrea (1)
- John Ferlito (1)
#### Features
- Initial commit of snapcraft.yaml. [Evan Dandrea]
#### Fixes
- maxage: don't consider negative UIDs when computing min UID. [Nicolas Sebrecht]
- Add missing space to output string. [John Ferlito]
#### Changes
- folder: IMAP: improve search logging. [Nicolas Sebrecht]
- no UIDPLUS: improve logging on failures. [Nicolas Sebrecht]
- github: remove the trick to download the PR. [Nicolas Sebrecht]
### OfflineIMAP v7.1.4 (2017-10-29)
#### Notes
Here is a bugfix release for v7.1.3. Two regressions got fixes and the
--delete-folder CLI option now expects an UTF-8 folder name when utf8foldernames
is enabled.
This release was tested by:
- Nicolas Sebrecht
#### Authors
- Nicolas Sebrecht (5)
- Thomas Merkel (1)
#### Fixes
- utf8foldernames: fix missing decode argument. [Nicolas Sebrecht]
- Fix: if any tunnel (preauth_tunnel or transport_tunnel) the hostname should not be required. [Thomas Merkel]
#### Changes
- utf8foldernames: support --delete-folder with UTF-8 folder name. [Nicolas Sebrecht]
- contrib/release.py improvements
### OfflineIMAP v7.1.3 (2017-10-08)
#### Notes
This release introduces a new experimental utf8foldernames configuration option.
We already had the "tricky" decodefoldernames which is now deprecated. The new
code is the correct implementation for this feature. The changes are neat and
rather small. All the users having decodefoldernames are requested to move to
utf8foldernames. This requires to update almost all the functions like
nametrans, folderfilter, etc, because they work on the UTF-8 encoding. See the
documentation for more. Thank you Urs Liska for this contribution!
In the long run, the idea is to:
1. Remove decodefoldernames in favour of utf8foldernames.
2. Promote utf8foldernames up to stable.
3. Turn utf8foldernames on by default.
Currently, folders with non-ASCII characters in their name have to be fully
re-downloaded. So, there's a bit more work to be done to have (3) and maybe (2).
Also, this release includes a fix about remotehost and transporttunnel that
would require some testing. Thanks Thomas Merkel!
There are documentation improvements, improved errors and minor code cleanups,
too.

### OfflineIMAP v7.0.14 (2017-03-11)
#### Notes
Here is a new small fixup release for the v7.0 series. The first v7.0.0 release
is near to 8 months old. This v7.0.14 release is more reliable than v6.7.0.3.
Hence, I'm deprecating the v6.7 series.
Now, you are all enjoined to migrate to v7.0.14. Migrating back to v6.7 is not
supported so you might like to backup your local maildirs and metadata first.
We will fully remove the legacy text backend driver in near future. The SQLite
driver proved to be better for both performance and reliability.
With this release we use imaplib2 v2.57 to support some faulting IMAP servers,
fix a little bug about the backend migration to SQLite and serialize the sync
processes to prevent from issues when both IDLE and autorefresh are enabled.
Happy sync'ing!

### OfflineIMAP v7.0.9 (2016-10-29)
#### Notes
Let's go for this small but still interesting release.
The Blinkenlights UI got fixed. Reliability for IMAP/IMAP setups is improved.
The sqlite backend now honors the fsync configuration option. This allows
commits to the database to be postponed. This might be usefull to disable the
default fsync for some use cases like cache migration from text to sqlite,
syncing after long away periods and more generally when a lot of new email
entries must be written to the cache.
Because of this change the old fsync option is marked EXPERIMENTAL. However,
setups using the plain text cache are not concerned. Bear in mind that disabling
fsync greatly decreases reliability when resuming from unexpected halts.
Small code cleanups, too.

### OfflineIMAP v7.0.0 (2016-07-22)
#### Notes
Finally, the new v7.0.0 is ready. This comes with breaking changes:
- Passwords are now expected in Unicode almost everywhere. They are used with
the UTF-8 charset. However, some configuration options are not UTF-8 friendly
mostly because of library limitations (e.g.: `remotepass`).
Users with Unicode caracters in the passwords are recommended to use a file or
`remotepasseval`.
- The sqlite database is the default.
Please, read [this blog post]({% post_url 2016-05-19-sqlite-becomes-default %}).
- The PID file is no longer used because offlineimap is able to run multiple
instances.
Please read the intermediate changelogs.
#### Authors

### OfflineIMAP v7.0.0-rc5 (2016-07-12)
#### Notes
This is a short -rc5 to stabilize the code with late improvements, mostly.
#### Authors

#### Features
- learn --delete-folder CLI option. [Nicolas Sebrecht]

### OfflineIMAP v7.0.0-rc4 (2016-07-04)
#### Notes
Here we are to stabilize the code. I don't expect to merge features anymore.
When emails failed to download, offlineimap was raising the same issues again
and again. Users can now filter emails based on UID numbers.
The mbnames was missing a way to remove obsolete entries from deleted accounts.
Hence, --mbnames-prune is added.
Syncing folders with the local "sep" characters in their names was causing
troubles on next syncs. They are now filtered with a warning message.
IMAP/IMAP mode is improved: this was suffuring a (rare) bug related to
concurrent writes.
Usual code cleanups and minor improvements are included in this release.
I think this candidate is more stable than the previous v6.7.0 stable. Enjoy!
#### Authors
- Nicolas Sebrecht (17)

### OfflineIMAP v7.0.0-rc2 (2016-06-04)
#### Notes
Enable offlineimap to run with Python 3. This feature is still experimental but
very welcome those days. Thanks Łukasz Żarnowiecki to work on this!
You are all welcome to test offlineimap with Python 3 and report both sucess and
failures.
Maintainers, we now work with a virtual imaplib2. Under the hood, the imported
imaplib2 can be the bundled version or any other (recent enough) imaplib2
provided by the system. If you already package imaplib2 and want to avoid
duplication of code, just remove the bundled version of imaplib2 while packaging
offlineimap and it should work out of the box. Be care, the filenames have
change.
#### Authors
- Nicolas Sebrecht (9)
- Łukasz Żarnowiecki (2)
#### Features
- Introduce a virtual imaplib2. [Nicolas Sebrecht]
- Mark Python 3 supported and experimental. [Nicolas Sebrecht]
- Allow to run under python3 without special env. [Łukasz Żarnowiecki]
- Maildir: Create top level dir recursively. [Łukasz Żarnowiecki]
#### Fixes
- IMAP: ignore UID with 0 as value when searching for UIDs. [Nicolas Sebrecht]
- Minor: fix copyright date. [Nicolas Sebrecht]
#### Changes
- Threading: improve comments. [Nicolas Sebrecht]
- Bump imaplib2 from v2.52 to v2.53. [Nicolas Sebrecht]
- globals: use whitespaces instead of tabs. [Nicolas Sebrecht]
- six: add requirements for pip. [Nicolas Sebrecht]
- README: add six library requirement. [Nicolas Sebrecht]
### OfflineIMAP v7.0.0-rc1 (2016-05-19)
#### Notes
We are starting a new major release cycle.
The dabatase for the cache is now sqlite by default. This means downgrading to
previous versions is prone to errors if you don't have sqlite enabled in your
configuration. All users should enable the sqlite database now to avoid issues.
Expect the legacy text files to be deprecated and removed in the future.
The long time awaited feature to not delete any message while allowing adding
new messages and sync flags is now implemented and marked stable. Thanks to the
testers and your feedbacks!
Łukasz started the work to support Python 3. Because of this, the six dependency
is required.
If you have scripts using the pid file, be aware this file is no longer used
because running multiple instances of the program is supported for years.
There a lot of code factorization and documentation improvements, especially
around threads.
I'm happy new contributors joined the official team, especially Łukasz and Ilias
(Debian maintainer). Thank you!

### OfflineIMAP v6.7.0 (2016-03-10)
#### Notes
New stable release out!
With the work of Ilias, maintainer at Debian, OfflineIMAP is learning a new CLI
option to help fixing filenames for the users using nametrans and updating from
versions prior to v6.3.5. Distribution maintainers might want to backport this
feature for their packaged versions out after v6.3.5. Have a look at commit
c84d23b65670f to know more.
OfflineIMAP earns the slogan "Get the emails where you need them", authored by
Norbert Preining.
Julien Danjou, the author of the book _The Hacker’s Guide To Python_, shared us
his screenshot of a running session of OfflineIMAP.
I recently created rooms for chat sessions at Gitter. It appears to be really
cool, supports seamless authentication with a github account, persistent logs,
desktop/mobile clients and many more usefull features. Join us at Gitter!
- https://gitter.im/OfflineIMAP/offlineimap [NEW]
- https://gitter.im/OfflineIMAP/imapfw [NEW]
Now, the OfflineIMAP community has 2 official websites:
- http://www.offlineimap.org (for offlineimap)
- http://imapfw.offlineimap.org (for imapfw) [NEW]
The Twitter account was resurrected, too. Feel free to join us:
https://twitter.com/OfflineIMAP
Finally, the teams of the OfflineIMAP organization at Github were renewed to
facilitate the integration of new contributors and directly improve both the
documentation and the websites.
As a side note, the [imapfw repository](https://github.com/OfflineIMAP/imapfw)
has now more than 50 stargazers. This is very encouraging.
Thank you much everybody for your various contributions into OfflineIMAP!

### OfflineIMAP v6.6.0-rc2 (2015-10-15)
#### Notes
Interesting job was done in this release with 3 new features:
- Support for XOAUTH2;
- New 'tls_level' configuration option to automatically discard insecure SSL protocols;
- New interface 'syslog' comes in, next to the -s CLI option. This allows better

- Added the newmail_hook.
- utf-7 feature is set experimental.
#### Fixes
- offlineimap.conf: fix a typo in the new mail hook example.
- Fix language.
- Fix spelling inconsistency.

#### Changes
- Bump imaplib2 from 2.43 to 2.48
- README: small improvements
### OfflineIMAP v6.5.7 (2015-05-15)
#### Notes
Almost no change since last release candidate. This is a sign that this release
is stable. ,-)
There was big changes since previous stable and users - especially distribution
maintainers - should really read the intermediate changelogs.
At the beginning of this year, I've tried to implement Unicode support. As you
know, I was not satisfied with the result. Then, I've published my code analysis
where I talk about doing a lot of refactoring for more proper OOP practices.
What's new is that I've actually done it and stopped this work as soon as I
realized that it means entirely rewriting the software.
On top of this, I'm not fully satisfied with other current limitations:
- old legacy support;
- migration to Python 3;
- complex multithreading design;
- some restrictions of the GPLv2 license;
- etc.
That's why I've started a new product. I'll publish it in the coming weeks under
the MIT license.
#### Features
- Better documentation for Windows users.
- contrib/release.sh (v0.2): fixes and improvements.
#### Fixes
- Report exceptions via exit code.
- Proxy feature leaks DNS support: offlineimap.conf talks about this.
- Email parsing for date coudn't work: fix datetuple dst check.
#### Changes
- Little code refactoring.
### OfflineIMAP v6.5.7-rc4 (2015-04-07)
#### Notes
Contrary to what the detailed following changes look like, here is a much bigger
release than expected.
Most important change is about maxage being sightly revisited. The whole
internal logic was found broken. Janna Martl did the hard work of raising the
issues and get them fixed.
New configuration options are added.
Maintainer Dmitrijs Ledkovs has left the organization. We wish you well! ,-)
Sebastian Spaeth let us know he will be almost inactive. We wish you well, too!
#### Features
- Add configuration option "utime_from_header" (TESTING).
- Add systemd integration files.
- mbnames: add new option "incremental" to write the file once per account.
#### Fixes
- maxage: fix timezone issues, remove IMAP-IMAP support, add startdate option.
- Test suites fixed and improved.
- Fix inaccurate UI messages when some messages are internally excluded from the
cached lists.
#### Changes
- imaplib2: bump to v2.43.
- More documentations moves to the website.
- Maintainer Dmitrijs has left the organization.
- Remove unnecessary imaplib2 workaround.
- release.sh: script for maintainers improved.
### OfflineIMAP v6.5.7-rc3 (2015-03-19)
#### Notes
Here comes a much bigger release than expected! With this release, the new
website is made official.
Distribution maintainers, be aware that we now have a new man page
offlineimapui(7)!
Also, the man page offlineimap(1) is sightly revised to explain the command line
options. Since `offlineimap --help` won't detail the options anymore, it becomes
critical.
The maxage feature was broken by design and could delete mails on one side. It
is still under heavy work to fix issues when timezones are not synced. Gmail is
known to use different timezones accross mailboxes.
The IMAP library imaplib2 was updated for the upcoming course to Python 3.
The most other important changes are:
- Possibility to use a proxy.
- All the documentation are SIGHTLY revisited and updated from all the available
places (sources files in the repository, wiki, website). A lot was moved from
the wiki and the sources to the website.
- the RFCs are available in the repository.
#### Features
- Add proxy support powered by PySocks.
- New man page offlineimapui to explain the available UIs.
- Add a CONTRIBUTING.rst file.
- Add a `TODO.rst` list for the contributors.
- Add a script for maintainers to roll out new releases.
- Add the `scripts/get-repository.sh` script to work on the website and the wiki.
- Doc: add IMAP RFCs.
#### Fixes
- Don't loose local mails because of maxage.
- Properly handle the cached messagelist.
- Do not error if `remoteuser` is not configured.
- imaplibutil: add missing errno import.
- LocalStatusSQLite: labels: don't fail if database returns unexpected None value.
- IDLE: continue trying selecting the folder on `OfflineImapError.Error`.
#### Changes
- imaplib2: bump to v2.42
- `--help` becomes concise.
- Changelogs: move format back to markdown/kramdown to be more compatible with Jekyll.
- README: deep cleanups.
- code cleanups.
- code: more style consistency.
- sqlite: provide offending filename when open fails.
- MANUAL: full refactoring, change format to asciidoc.
- MANUAL: rename "KNOWN BUGS" TO "KNOWN ISSUES".
- MANUAL: add known issues entry about socktimeout for suspended sessions.
- offlineimap.conf: say what is the default value for the sep option.
- sqlite: provide information on what is failing for `OperationalError`.
- remove obsolete documentation.
### OfflineIMAP v6.5.7-rc2 (2015-01-18)
#### Notes
This release candidate should be minor for most users.
The best points are about SSL not falling back on other authentication methods
when failing, better RAM footprint and reduced I/O access.
Documentation had our attention, too.
There's some code cleanups and code refactoring, as usual.
#### Features

### OfflineIMAP v6.5.7-rc1 (2015-01-07)
#### Notes
I think it's time for a new release candidate. Our release cycles are long
enough and users are asked to use the current TIP of the next branch to test
our recent patches.
The current version makes better support for environment variable expansion and
improves OS portability. Gmail should be better supported: we are still
expecting feedbacks. Embedded library imaplib2 is updated to v2.37.
Debugging messages are added and polished.
There's some code cleanups and refactoring, also.
#### Features
* Expand environment variables in the following
configuration items:
- general.pythonfile;
- general.metadata;

* Fix Markdown formatting
* Fix typo in apply_xforms invocation
* Merge pull request #136 from aroig/gh/label-fix
* Fix mangled message headers for servers without UIDPLUS:
X-OfflineIMAP was added with preceeding '\n' instead of
'\r\n' just before message was uploaded to the IMAP server.
* Add missing version bump for 6.5.6 (it was released with
6.5.5 in setup.py and other places).
#### Changes
* Warn about a tricky piece of code in addmessageheader
* Rename addmessageheader()'s crlf parameter to linebreak

### OfflineIMAP v6.5.6 (2014-05-14)
* Fix IDLE mode regression (it didn't worked) introduced
after v6.5.5 (pointy hat goes to Eygene Ryabinkin, kudos --
to Tomasz Żok)
### OfflineIMAP v6.5.6-rc1 (2014-05-14)
* Add knob to invoke folderfilter dynamically on each sync (GitHub#73)
* Add knob to apply compression to IMAP connections (Abdó Roig-Maranges)
* Add knob to filter some headers before uploading message
to IMAP server (Abdó Roig-Maranges)
* Allow to sync GMail labels and implement GmailMaildir repository that
adds mechanics to change message labels (Abdó Roig-Maranges)
* Allow to migrate status data across differend backends
(Abdó Roig-Maranges)

(if $XDG_CONFIG_HOME/offlineimap/config exists, use it as the
default configuration path; ~/.offlineimaprc is still tried after
XDG location) (GitHub#32)
* Allow multiple certificate fingerprints to be specified inside
'cert_fingerprint'
### OfflineIMAP v6.5.5 (2013-10-07)
* Avoid lockups for IMAP synchronizations running with the
"-1" command-line switch (X-Ryl669 <boite.pour.spam@gmail.com>)
* Dump stacktrace for all threads on SIGQUIT: ease debugging
of threading and other issues
* SIGHUP is now handled as the termination notification rather than
the signal to reread the configuration (Dmitrijs Ledkovs)
* Honor the timezone of emails (Tobias Thierer)
* Allow mbnames output to be sorted by a custom sort key by specifying
a 'sort_keyfunc' function in the [mbnames] section of the config.
* Support SASL PLAIN authentication method. (Andreas Mack)
* Support transport-only tunnels that requre full IMAP authentication.
(Steve Purcell)
* Make the list of authentication mechanisms to be configurable.
(Andreas Mack)
* Allow to set message access and modification timestamps based
on the "Date" header of the message itself. (Cyril Russo)
* "peritem" format string for [mbnames] got new expansion key
"localfolders" that corresponds to the same parameter of the
local repository for the account being processed.
* [regression] pass folder names to the foldersort function,
revert the documented behaviour
* Fix handling of zero-sized IMAP data items (GitHub#15).
* Updated bundled imaplib2 to 2.35:
- fix for Gmail sending a BYE response after reading >100 messages
in a session;
- includes fix for GitHub#15: patch was accepted upstream.
* Updated bundled imaplib2 to 2.36: it includes support for SSL
version override that was integrated into our code before,
no other changes.
* Fixed parsing of quoted strings in IMAP responses: strings like "\\"
were treated as having \" as the escaped quote, rather than treating
it as the quoted escaped backslash (GitHub#53).
* Execute pre/post-sync hooks during synchronizations
toggled by IMAP IDLE message processing. (maxgerer@gmail.com)
* Catch unsuccessful local mail uploads when IMAP server
responds with "NO" status; that resulted in a loss of such
local messages. (Adam Spiers)
* Don't create folders if readonly is enabled.
* Learn to deal with readonly folders to properly detect this
condition and act accordingly. One example is Gmail's "Chats"
folder that is read-only, but contains logs of the quick chats. (E.
Ryabinkin)
* Fix str.format() calls for Python 2.6 (D. Logie)
* Remove APPENDUID hack, previously introduced to fix Gmail, no longer
necessary, it might have been breaking things. (J. Wiegley)
* Improve regex that could lead to 'NoneType' object has no attribute
'group' (D. Franke)
* Improved error throwing on repository misconfiguration
### OfflineIMAP v6.5.4 (2012-06-02)
* bump bundled imaplib2 library 2.29 --> 2.33
* Actually perform the SSL fingerprint check (reported by J. Cook)
* Curses UI, don't use colors after we shut down curses already (C.Höger)
* Document that '%' needs encoding as '%%' in configuration files.
* Fix crash when IMAP.quickchanged() led to an Error (reported by sharat87)
* Implement the createfolders setting to disable folder propagation (see docs)
### OfflineIMAP v6.5.3.1 (2012-04-03)
* Don't fail if no dry-run setting exists in offlineimap.conf
(introduced in 6.5.3)
### OfflineIMAP v6.5.3 (2012-04-02)
* --dry-run mode protects us from performing any actual action. It will
not precisely give the exact information what will happen. If e.g. it
would need to create a folder, it merely outputs "Would create folder
X", but not how many and which mails it would transfer.
* internal code changes to prepare for Python3
* Improve user documentation of nametrans/folderfilter
* Fixed some cases where invalid nametrans rules were not caught and
we would not propagate local folders to the remote repository.
(now tested in test03)
* Revert "* Slight performance enhancement uploading mails to an IMAP
server in the common case." It might have led to instabilities.
* Revamped documentation structure. `make` in the `docs` dir or `make
doc` in the root dir will now create the 1) man page and 2) the user
documentation using sphinx (requiring python-doctools, and
sphinx). The resulting user docs are in `docs/html`. You can also
only create the man pages with `make man` in the `docs` dir.
* -f command line option only works on the untranslated remote
repository folder names now. Previously folderfilters had to match
both the local AND remote name which caused unwanted behavior in
combination with nametrans rules. Clarify in the help text.
* Some better output when using nonsensical configuration settings
* Improve compatability of the curses UI with python 2.6
### OfflineIMAP v6.5.2.1 (2012-04-04)
* Fix python2.6 compatibility with the TTYUI backend (crash)
* Fix TTYUI regression from 6.5.2 in refresh loop (crash)
* Fix crashes related to UIDVALIDITY returning "None"
* Beginning of a test suite. So far there is only one test. Configure
test/credentials.conf and invoke with "python setup.py test"
* Make folders containing quotes work rather than crashing
(reported by Mark Eichin)
* Improve delete msg performance with SQLITE backend
* Enforce basic UI when using the --info switch
* Remove the Gmail "realdelete" option, as it could lead to potential
data loss.
### OfflineIMAP v6.5.2 (2012-01-17)
* Gmail "realdelete" option is considered harmful and has the potential
for data loss. Analysis at
http://article.gmane.org/gmane.mail.imap.offlineimap.general/5265
Warnings were added to offlineimap.conf
* Rather than write out the nametrans'lated folder names for mbnames, we
now write out the local untransformed box names. This is generally
what we want. This became relevant since we support nametrans rules on
the local side since only a short time. Reported by Paul Collignan.
* Some sanity checks and improved error messages.
* Revert 6.5.1.1 change to use public imaplib2 function, it was reported to
not always work.
* Don't fail when ~/netrc is not readable by us.
* Don't emit noisy regular sleeping announcements in Basic UI.
### OfflineIMAP v6.5.1.2 (2012-01-07) - "Baby steps"
Smallish bug fixes that deserve to be put out.
* Fix possible crash during --info run
* Fix reading in Maildirs, where we would attempt to create empty
directories on REMOTE.
* Do not attempt to sync lower case custom Maildir flags. We do not
support them (yet) (this prevents many scary bogus sync messages)
* Add filter information to the filter list in --info output
### OfflineIMAP v6.5.1.1 (2012-01-07) - "Das machine control is nicht fur gerfinger-poken und mittengrabben"
Blinkenlights UI 6.5.0 regression fixes only.
* Sleep led to crash ('abort_signal' not existing)
* Make exit via 'q' key work again cleanly
### OfflineIMAP v6.5.1 (2012-01-07) - "Quest for stability"
* Fixed Maildir regression "flagmatchre" not found. (regressed in 6.5.0)
* Have console output go by default to STDOUT and not STDERR (regression
in 6.5.0)
* Fixed MachineUI to urlencode() output lines again, rather than
outputting multi-line items. It's ugly as hell, but it had been that
way for years.
* Remove the old global locking system. We lock only the accounts that
we currently sync, so you can invoke OfflineImap multiple times now as
long as you sync different accounts. This system is compatible with
all releases >= 6.4.0, so don't run older releases simultanous to this
one.
### OfflineIMAP v6.5.0 (2012-01-06)
This is a CRITICAL bug fix release for everyone who is on the 6.4.x series.
Please upgrade to avoid potential data loss! The version has been bumped to
6.5.0, please let everyone know that the 6.4.x series is problematic.
* Uploading multiple emails to an IMAP server would lead to wrong UIDs
being returned (ie the same for all), which confused offlineimap and
led to recurrent upload/download loops and inconsistencies in the
IMAP<->IMAP uid mapping.
* Uploading of Messages from Maildir and IMAP<->IMAP has been made more
efficient by renaming files/mapping entries, rather than actually
loading and saving the message under a new UID.
* Fix regression that broke MachineUI
### OfflineIMAP v6.4.4 (2012-01-06)
This is a bugfix release, fixing regressions occurring in or since 6.4.0.
* Fix the missing folder error that occured when a new remote folder was
detected (IMAP<->Maildir)
* Possibly fixed bug that prevented us from ever re-reading Maildir
folders, so flag changes and deletions were not detected when running
in a refresh loop. This is a regression that was introduced in about
6.4.0.
* Never mangle maildir file names when using nonstandard Maildir flags
(such as 'a'), note that they will still be deleted as they are not
supported in the sync to an IMAP server.
### OfflineIMAP v6.4.3 (2012-01-04)
#### New Features
* add a --info command line switch that outputs useful information about
the server and the configuration for all enabled accounts.
#### Changes
* Reworked logging which was reported to e.g. not flush output to files
often enough. User-visible changes:
a) console output goes to stderr (for now).
b) file output has timestamps and looks identical in the basic and
ttyui UIs.
c) File output should be flushed after logging by default (do
report if not).
* Bumped bundled imaplib2 to release 2.29
* Make ctrl-c exit cleanly rather aborting brutally (which could leave
around temporary files, half-written cache files, etc). Exiting on
SIGTERM and CTRL-C can take a little longer, but will be clean.
### OfflineIMAP v6.4.2 (2011-12-01)
* IMAP<->IMAP sync with a readonly local IMAP repository failed with a
rather mysterious "TypeError: expected a character buffer object"
error. Fix this my retrieving the list of folders early enough even
for readonly repositories.
* Fix regression from 6.4.0. When using local Maildirs with "/" as a
folder separator, all folder names would get a trailing slash
appended, which is plain wrong.
### OfflineIMAP v6.4.1 (2011-11-17)
#### Changes
* Indicate progress when copying many messages (slightly change log format)
* Output how long an account sync took (min:sec).
#### Bug Fixes
* Syncing multiple accounts in single-threaded mode would fail as we try
to "register" a thread as belonging to two accounts which was
fatal. Make it non-fatal (it can be legitimate).
* New folders on the remote would be skipped on the very sync run they
are created and only by synced in subsequent runs. Fixed.
* a readonly parameter to select() was not always treated correctly,
which could result in some folders being opened read-only when we
really needed read-write.
### OfflineIMAP v6.4.0 (2011-09-29)
This is the first stable release to support the forward-compatible per-account
locks and remote folder creation that has been introduced in the 6.3.5 series.
* Various regression and bug fixes from the last couple of RCs
### OfflineIMAP v6.3.5-rc3 (2011-09-21)
#### Changes
* Refresh server capabilities after login, so we know that Gmail
supports UIDPLUS (it only announces that after login, not
before). This prevents us from adding custom headers to Gmail uploads.
#### Bug Fixes
* Fix the creation of folders on remote repositories, which was still
botched on rc2.
### OfflineIMAP v6.3.5-rc2 (2011-09-19)
#### New Features
* Implement per-account locking, so that it will possible to sync
different accounts at the same time. The old global lock is still in
place for backward compatibility reasons (to be able to run old and
new versions of OfflineImap concurrently) and will be removed in the
future. Starting with this version, OfflineImap will be
forward-compatible with the per-account locking style.
* Implement RFC 2595 LOGINDISABLED. Warn the user and abort when we
attempt a plaintext login but the server has explicitly disabled
plaintext logins rather than crashing.
* Folders will now also be automatically created on the REMOTE side of
an account if they exist on the local side. Use the folderfilters
setting on the local side to prevent some folders from migrating to
the remote side. Also, if you have a nametrans setting on the remote
repository, you might need a nametrans setting on the local repository
that leads to the original name (reverse nametrans).
#### Changes
* Documentation improvements concerning 'restoreatime' and some code cleanup
* Maildir repositories now also respond to folderfilter= configurations.
#### Bug Fixes
* New emails are not created with "-rwxr-xr-x" but as "-rw-r--r--"
anymore, fixing a regression in 6.3.4.
### OfflineIMAP v6.3.5-rc1 (2011-09-12)
#### Notes
Idle feature and SQLite backend leave the experimental stage! ,-)
#### New Features
* When a message upload/download fails, we do not abort the whole folder
synchronization, but only skip that message, informing the user at the
end of the sync run.
* If you connect via ssl and 'cert_fingerprint' is configured, we check
that the server certificate is actually known and identical by
comparing the stored sha1 fingerprint with the current one.
#### Changes
* Refactor our IMAPServer class. Background work without user-visible
changes.
* Remove the configurability of the Blinkenlights statuschar. It
cluttered the main configuration file for little gain.
* Updated bundled imaplib2 to version 2.28.
#### Bug Fixes
* We protect more robustly against asking for inexistent messages from the
IMAP server, when someone else deletes or moves messages while we sync.
* Selecting inexistent folders specified in folderincludes now throws
nice errors and continues to sync with all other folders rather than
exiting offlineimap with a traceback.
### OfflineIMAP v6.3.4 (2011-08-10)
#### Notes
Here we are. A nice release since v6.3.3, I think.
#### Changes
* Handle when UID can't be found on saved messages.
### OfflineIMAP v6.3.4-rc4 (2011-07-27)
#### Notes
There is nothing exciting in this release. This is somewhat expected due to the
late merge on -rc3.
#### New Features
* Support maildir for Windows.
#### Changes
* Manual improved.
### OfflineIMAP v6.3.4-rc3 (2011-07-07)
#### Notes
Here is a surprising release. :-)
As expected we have a lot bug fixes in this round (see git log for details),
including a fix for a bug we had for ages (details below) which is a very good
news.
What makes this cycle so unusual is that I merged a feature to support StartTLS
automatically (thanks Sebastian!). Another very good news.
We usually don't do much changes so late in a cycle. Now, things are highly
calming down and I hope a lot of people will test this release. Next one could
be the stable!
#### New Features
* Added StartTLS support, it will automatically be used if the server
supports it.
#### Bug Fixes
* We protect more robustly against asking for inexistent messages from the
IMAP server, when someone else deletes or moves messages while we sync.
### OfflineIMAP v6.3.4-rc2 (2011-06-15)
#### Notes
This was a very active rc1 and we could expect a lot of new fixes for the next
release.
The most important fix is about a bug that could lead to data loss. Find more
information about his bug here:
http://permalink.gmane.org/gmane.mail.imap.offlineimap.general/3803
The IDLE support is merged as experimental feature.
#### New Features
* Implement experimental IDLE feature.
#### Changes
* Maildirs use less memory while syncing.
#### Bug Fixes
* Saving to Maildirs now checks for file existence without race conditions.
* A bug in the underlying imap library has been fixed that could
potentially lead to data loss if the server interrupted responses with
unexpected but legal server status responses. This would mainly occur
in folders with many thousands of emails. Upgrading from the previous
release is strongly recommended.
### OfflineIMAP v6.3.4-rc1 (2011-05-16)
#### Notes
Welcome to the v6.3.4 pre-release cycle. Your favorite IMAP tool wins 2 new
features which were asked for a long time:
* an experimental SQL-based backend for the local cache;
* one-way synchronization cabability.
Logic synchronization is reviewed and simplified (from 4 to 3 passes) giving
improved performance.
Lot of work was done to give OfflineIMAP a better code base. Raised errors can
now rely on a new error system and should become the default in the coming
releases.
As usual, we ask our users to test this release as much as possible, especially
the SQL backend. Have fun!
#### New Features
* Begin sphinx-based documentation for the code.
* Enable 1-way synchronization by settting a [Repository ...] to
readonly = True. When e.g. using offlineimap for backup purposes you
can thus make sure that no changes in your backup trickle back into
the main IMAP server.
* Optional: experimental SQLite-based backend for the LocalStatus
cache. Plain text remains the default.
#### Changes
* Start a enhanced error handling background system. This is designed to not
stop a whole sync process on all errors (not much used, yet).
* Documentation improvements: the FAQ wins new entries and add a new HACKING
file for developers.
* Lot of code cleanups.
* Reduced our sync logic from 4 passes to 3 passes (integrating upload of
"new" and "existing" messages into one function). This should result in a
slight speedup.
* No whitespace is stripped from comma-separated arguments passed via
the -f option.
* Give more detailed error when encountering a corrupt UID mapping file.
#### Bug Fixes
* Drop connection if synchronization failed. This is needed if resuming the
system from suspend mode gives a wrong connection.
* Fix the offlineimap crash when invoking debug option 'thread'.
* Make 'thread' command line option work.
### OfflineIMAP v6.3.3 (2011-04-24)
#### Notes
Make this last candidate cycle short. It looks like we don't need more tests as
most issues were raised and solved in the second round. Also, we have huge work
to merge big and expected features into OfflineIMAP.
Thanks to all contributors, again. With such a contribution rate, we can release
stable faster. I hope it will be confirmed in the longer run!
#### Changes
* Improved documentation for querying password.
### OfflineIMAP v6.3.3-rc3 (2011-04-19)
#### Notes
It's more than a week since the previous release. Most of the issues raised were
discussed and fixed since last release. I think we can be glad and confident for
the future while the project live his merry life.
#### Changes
* The -f option did not work with Folder names with spaces. It works
now, use with quoting e.g. -f "INBOX, Deleted Mails".
* Improved documentation.
* Bump from imaplib2 v2.20 to v2.22.
* Code refactoring.
#### Bug Fixes
* Fix IMAP4 tunnel with imaplib2.
### OfflineIMAP v6.3.3-rc2 (2011-04-07)
#### Notes
We are now at the third week of the -rc1 cycle. I think it's welcome to begin
the -rc2 cycle. Things are highly calming down in the code even if we had
much more feedbacks than usual. Keep going your effort!
I'd like to thank reporters who involved in this cycle:
- Баталов Григорий
- Alexander Skwar
- Christoph Höger
- dtk
- Greg Grossmeier
- h2oz7v
- Iain Dalton
- Pan Tsu
- Vincent Beffara
- Will Styler
(my apologies if I forget somebody) ...and all active developers, of course!
The imaplib2 migration looks to go the right way to be definetly released but
still needs more tests. So, here we go...
#### Changes
* Increase compatability with Gmail servers which claim to not support
the UIDPLUS extension but in reality do.
#### Bug Fixes
* Fix hang when using Ctrl+C in some cases.
### OfflineIMAP v6.3.3-rc1 (2011-03-16)
#### Notes
Here is time to begin the tests cycle. If feature topics are sent, I may merge
or delay them until the next stable release.
Main change comes from the migration from imaplib to imaplib2. It's internal
code changes and doesn't impact users. UIDPLUS and subjectAltName for SSL are
also great improvements.
This release includes a hang fix due to infinite loop. Users seeing OfflineIMAP
hang and consuming a lot of CPU are asked to update.
That beeing said, this is still an early release candidate you should use for
non-critical data only!
#### New Features
* Implement UIDPLUS extension support. OfflineIMAP will now not insert
an X-OfflineIMAP header if the mail server supports the UIDPLUS
extension.
* SSL: support subjectAltName.
#### Changes
* Use imaplib2 instead of imaplib.
* Makefile use magic to find the version number.
* Rework the repository module
* Change UI names to Blinkenlights,TTYUI,Basic,Quiet,MachineUI.
Old names will still work, but are deprecated.
Document that we don't accept a list of UIs anymore.
* Reworked the syncing strategy. The only user-visible change is that
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.
* TTYUI ouput improved.
* Code cleanups.
#### Bug Fixes
* Fix ignoring output while determining the rst2xxx command name to build
documentation.
* Fix hang because of infinite loop reading EOF.
* Allow SSL connections to send keep-alive messages.
* Fix regression (UIBase is no more).
* Make profiling mode really enforce single-threading
* Do not send localized date strings to the IMAP server as it will
either ignore or refuse them.
### OfflineIMAP v6.3.2 (2010-02-21)
#### Notes
First of all I'm really happy to announce our new official `website
<http://offlineimap.org>`_. Most of the work started from the impulse
of Philippe LeCavalier with the help of Sebastian Spaeth and other
contributors. Thanks to everybody.
In this release, we are still touched by the "SSL3 write pending" but I think
time was long enough to try to fix it. We have our first entry in the "KNOWN
BUG" section of the manual about that. I'm afraid it could impact a lot of users
if some distribution package any SSL library not having underlying (still
obscure) requirements. Distribution maintainers should be care of it. I hope
this release will help us to have more reports.
This release will also be the root of our long maintenance support.
Other bugs were fixed.
#### Bug Fixes
* Fix craches for getglobalui().
* Fix documentation build.
* Restore compatibiliy with python 2.5.
### OfflineIMAP v6.3.2-rc3 (2010-02-06)
#### Notes
We are still touched by the "SSL3 write pending" bug it would be really nice to
fix before releasing the coming stable. In the worse case, we'll have to add the
first entry in the "KNOWN BUG" section of the manual. I'm afraid it could impact
a lot of users if some distribution package any SSL library not having
underlying (still obscure) requirements.
The best news with this release are the Curse UI fixed and the better reports
on errors.
In this release I won't merge any patch not fixing a bug or a security issue.
More feedbacks on the main issue would be appreciated.
#### Changes
* Sample offlineimap.conf states it expects a PEM formatted certificat.
* Give better trace information if an error occurs.
* Have --version ONLY print the version number.
* Code cleanups.
#### Bug Fixes
* Fix Curses UI (simplified by moving from MultiLock to Rlock implementation).
* Makefile: docutils build work whether python extension command is stripped or not.
* Makefile: clean now removes HTML documentation files.
### OfflineIMAP v6.3.2-rc2 (2010-12-21)
#### Notes
We are beginning a new tests cycle. At this stage, I expect most people will try
to intensively stuck OfflineIMAP. :-)
#### New Features
* Makefile learn to build the package and make it the default.
* Introduce a Changelog to involve community in the releasing process.
* Migrate documentation to restructuredtext.
#### Changes
* Improve CustomConfig documentation.
* Imply single threading mode in debug mode exept for "-d thread".
* Code and import cleanups.
* Allow UI to have arbitrary names.
* Code refactoring around UI and UIBase.
* Improve version managment and make it easier.
* Introduce a true single threading mode.
#### Bug Fixes
* Understand multiple EXISTS replies from servers like Zimbra.
* Only verify hostname if we actually use CA cert.
* Fix ssl ca-cert in the sample configuration file.
* Fix 'Ctrl+C' interruptions in threads.
* Fix makefile clean for files having whitespaces.
* Fix makefile to not remove unrelated files.
* Fixes in README.
* Remove uneeded files.
### OfflineIMAP v6.3.2-rc1 (2010-12-19)
#### Notes
We are beginning a tests cycle. If feature topics are sent, I may merge or
delay them until the next stable release.
#### New Features
* Primitive implementation of SSL certificates check.
#### Changes
* Use OptionParser instead of getopts.
* Code cleanups.
#### Bug Fixes
* Fix reading password from UI.
### OfflineIMAP v6.3.1 (2010-12-11)
#### Notes
Yes, I know I've just annouced the v6.3.0 in the same week. As said, it
was not really a true release for the software. This last release
includes fixes and improvements it might be nice to update to.
Thanks to every body who helped to make this release with patches and
tips through the mailing list. This is clearly a release they own.
#### Changes
* cProfile becomes the default profiler. Sebastian Spaeth did refactoring to
prepare to the coming unit test suites.
* UI output formating enhanced.
* Some code cleanups.
#### Bug Fixes
* Fix possible overflow while working with Exchange.
* Fix time sleep while exiting threads.
### OfflineIMAP v6.3.0 (2010-12-09)
#### Notes
This release is more "administrative" than anything else and mainly marks the
change of the maintainer. New workflow and policy for developers come in. BTW,
I don't think I'll maintain debian/changelog. At least, not in the debian way.
Most users and maintainers may rather want to skip this release.
#### Bug Fixes
* Fix terminal display on exit.
* netrc password authentication.
* User name querying from netrc.
