isync/TODO

don't require maildir_trash. currently MaxMessages gets into the way of
simply removing it; that is fixable with some shuffling, though.

refactor mailbox support. create proper mailbox drivers; handle imap and
maildir (and anything else) symmetrically; decouple UID->message mapping
from sync database - should use the same UID storing schemes as c-client
(pine, uw-imap) does, at least optionally, i think.

add asynchrounous operation to remote mailbox drivers. this is actually
what prevents us from simply using c-client for the previous point and
thus simply becoming mailsync.

store message flags in sync database, so _un_setting them will be properly
synced as well.

add option to suppress upload of messages (but not deletion).

add support for syncing with other: and shared: via NAMESPACE

isync ignores asynchronous notifications (untagged responses), so mail 
arriving during a fetch will not be fetched in the current run any more.

add a way to automatically create and sync IMAP subfolders.

possibly use ^[[1m to highlight error messages.

added generic IMAP list parser and rewrote imap_exec() to handle arbitrary data instead of hardcoded 2000-12-21 10:24:53 +00:00			`add support for syncing with other: and shared: via NAMESPACE`
added support for tilde (~) expansion in the `Mailbox' and `CertificateFile' configuration directives added `Maildir' configuration command to specify the default location of the user's mailboxes. If a relative path is used in a `Mailbox' command, this path is used as a prefix. 2001-01-16 19:45:08 +00:00

updated year in copyright notice the uid for each message in the maildir is now stored in a dbm database rather than the filename. this change was necessary because isync became confused if you copied a message to another folder, in which case the uid was invalid. as a result of the above change, isync now acquires a mutex on the mailbox to protect the dbm database from concurrent access. main() was reworked to continue gracefully when an error is encountered, and to always call maildir_close() so that the lock can be disabled, and the database closed. 2002-01-16 19:47:28 +00:00
