make SSL certificate validation more automatic.

add deamon mode. primary goal: keep imap password in memory.
add asynchronous operation to remote mailbox drivers. this is actually
what prevents us from simply using c-client and thus becoming mailsync.
2003-02-27 18:41:54 +00:00
handle custom flags (keywords).
2003-02-27 18:41:54 +00:00
fix maildir_{open_store,list} to handle partial names (last char not slash).
2004-01-09 18:52:45 +00:00
add a way to automatically create and sync subfolders.

could store TUID even when UIDPLUS is supported. would avoid duplicated
messages after abort before new UID arrives.
2004-01-09 20:10:19 +00:00
decouple TUID search from append. that's a prerequisite for usable
MULTIAPPEND, and is generally good for async. should be way faster, too,
as it saves repeated mailbox rescans with single-file formats.
2003-02-27 18:41:54 +00:00
use MULTIAPPEND and FETCH with multiple messages.
create dummies describing MIME structure of messages bigger than MaxSize.
flagging the dummy would fetch the real message. possibly remove --renew.
don't SELECT boxes unless really needed; in particular not for appending,
and in write-only mode not before changes are made.

possibly request message attributes on a per-message basis from the drivers.
considerations:
- record non-existing UID ranges in the sync database, so IMAP FETCHes needn't
to exclude anyway non-existing messages explicitly.
- when detect unborn pairs and orphaned messages being gone? implied by expunge:
with trashing, by local driver, or of messages we deleted in this run. the
remaining cases could be handled by automatic periodical cleanup passes, an
explicit --cleanup action, or be implied by one of the other actions.
- the benefit of this is questionable, as fine-grained requests will result
in sending huge amounts of data, and upstream is often way slower than
downstream.

maildir: possibly timestamp mails with remote arrival date.
2004-01-09 20:10:19 +00:00
maybe throw out the ctx->recent stuff - it's used only for one info message.
2004-01-09 20:10:19 +00:00
2003-02-27 18:41:54 +00:00
possibly use ^[[1m to highlight error messages.
consider alternative trash implementation: trash only messages we delete,
and trash before marking them deleted in the mailbox. downside: all other
programs have to do the same. and what if the deleted flag is unset?
items out of scope of purely UID based approach:
- detect message moves between folders
2004-09-08 16:37:36 +00:00
- recovering from UIDVALIDITY change (uw-imap < 2004.352 does this a lot)
