leave all the hard work to OpenSSL. this has several consequences:
- certificate chain validation actually works instead of throwing
around error 20
- the interactive approval is gone. i don't expect it to be useful
anyway, as mbsync is mostly a batch tool
- the code is much shorter
we did not check a valid certificate's subject at all so far.
this is no problem if the certificate file contains only exactly the
wanted host's certificate - before revision 04fdf7d1 (dec 2000, < v0.4),
this was even enforced (more or less - if the peer cert had been
signed directly by a root cert, it would be accepted as well).
however, when the file contains root certificates (like the system-wide
certificate file typically does), any host with a valid certificate
could pretend to be the wanted host.
fdatasync() the journal after creating the pair record and recording
the TUID, but before the message propagation actually starts.
all other writes to the journal are not flushed, as they will at worst
cause some unnecessary network traffic without visible effect.
this fixes two possible failure scenarios:
- if the journal is committed but the mails are not, the missing files
would be erroneously interpreted as deletions which would be
propagated
- less seriously, if the mail files' meta data was committed but the
file contents were not, we would end up with empty files, which would
have to be re-fetched "behind mbsync's back" (just deleting the files
would not work - see above)
make sure that the new state is committed to disk before overwriting the
old version - by default meta data is committed first, so we may end up
with no valid state at all otherwise.
this is *our* magic string, not IMAP's.
ok, admittedly, we *also* send it to IMAP, but that's just convenience.
actually making it case insensitive would improve interoperability with
thunderbird (which interprets INBOX even if qualified), but would break
existing setups (including mine).
this removes the pathological O(<number of sync records> * <number of
new messages>) case at the cost of being a bit more cpu-intensive (but
O(<number of all messages>)) for old messages.
when we find that the store is incompatible with in-store sync state,
we want to fail the whole channel. however, we must not claim that the
store died, otherwise it won't be disposed of properly.
pass DB_TRUNCATE when creating databases. otherwise bdb will complain
about the empty file we pass it (we have to create it upfront to
implement our locking).
in fact, UIDNEXT (and UIDVALIDITY) null is *not* allowed (see RFC3501
section 9). them popping up nonetheless was a dovecot bug (which would
also confuse dovecot itself).
having it in as a workaround was no good either, as quite some other
code in mbsync assumes that UIDs are not null.
This reverts commit e1fa867 and most of 39006d7.

files may be renamed (due to new -> cur transition or flag changes),
which may lead to two effects if ignored:
- we see both the old and the new name, so we report a spurious
duplicate UID
- we see neither name, so we report a spurious deletion
as countermeasure, record and compare directory modification times. upon
mismatch, we just start over - as usual.
don't try to unlock and close databases and files - this will happen a
moment later anyway, through cancelation or re-selection.
ironically, this plugs a memory leak, because an open main database is
used as a signal to close a temporary db in maildir_scan().
instead of SEARCHing every single message (which is slow and happens to
be unreliabe with M$ Exchange 2010), just FETCH the new messages from
the mailbox - the ones we just appended will be amongst them.
unless an info message is explictly marked as a continuation, it must
terminate any pending line (typically the progress information) first.
debug output is not affected, as it is mutually exclusive with info
output, and no debug lines are left unterminated outside clear scopes.
