OfflineIMAP v6.5.7-rc1 (2015-01-07)
|
|
===================================
|
|
|
|
Notes
|
|
-----
|
|
|
|
I think it's time for a new release candidate. Our release cycle 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;
|
|
- mbnames.filename;
|
|
- Repository.localfolders.
|
|
- Repository.sslcacertfile.
|
|
Make tilde and environment variable expansion in the following
|
|
configuration items:
|
|
- Repository.sslclientcert;
|
|
- Repository.sslclientkey.
|
|
* Support default CA bundle locations for a couple of
|
|
known Unix systems (Michael Vogt, GutHub pull #19)
|
|
* Added default CA bundle location for OpenBSD
|
|
(GitHub pull #120) and DragonFlyBSD.
|
|
|
|
Fixes
|
|
-----
|
|
|
|
* Fix unbounded recursion during flag update (Josh Berry).
|
|
* Do not ignore gmail labels if header appears multiple times
|
|
* Delete gmail labels header before adding a new one
|
|
* Fix improper header separator for X-OfflineIMAP header
|
|
* Match header names case-insensitively
|
|
* Create SQLite database directory if it doesn't exist
|
|
yet; warn if path is not a directory (Nick Farrell,
|
|
GutHub pull #102)
|
|
* Properly manipulate contents of messagelist for folder
|
|
* Fix label processing in GmailMaildir
|
|
* Properly capitalize OpenSSL
|
|
* Fix warning-level message processing by MachineUI
|
|
(GitHub pull #64, GitHub pull #118).
|
|
* Properly generate tarball from "sdist" command (GitHub #137)
|
|
* 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
|
|

|
|
* addmessageheader(): add debug for header insertion
|
|
* Add version qualifier to differentiate releases and development ones
|
|
* More clearly show results of folder name translation
|
|
* IMAP: provide message-id in error messages
|
|
* Trade recursion by plain old cycle
|
|
* Avoid copying array every time, just slice it
|
|
* Added OpenSSL exception clause to our main GPL to allow
|
|
people to link with OpenSSL in run-time. It is needed
|
|
at least for Debian, see
|
|
https://lists.debian.org/debian-legal/2002/10/msg00113.html
|
|
for details.

|
|
|
|
|
|
|
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)
|
|
* Support XDG Base Directory Specification
|
|
(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:

(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 v6.3.1 (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.
|
