| find out why mutt's message size calc is confused.
 | |
| 
 | |
| f{,data}sync() usage could be optimized by batching the calls.
 | |
| 
 | |
| add some marker about message being already [remotely] trashed.
 | |
| real transactions would be certainly not particularly useful ...
 | |
| 
 | |
| check whether disappearing (M_DEAD) messages (due to maildir rescans) are
 | |
| properly accounted for by the syncing code.
 | |
| 
 | |
| make sync_chans() aware of servers, so a bad server (e.g., wrong password)
 | |
| won't cause the same error message for every attached store.
 | |
| 
 | |
| make SSL (connect) timeouts produce a bit more than "Unidentified socket error".
 | |
| 
 | |
| network timeout handling in general would be a good idea.
 | |
| 
 | |
| unify maildir locking between the two UID storage schemes.
 | |
| re-opening the db may be expensive, so keep it open.
 | |
| but keeping lock for too long (e.g., big message downloads) may block other
 | |
| clients. auto-release lock after 500 ms?
 | |
| 
 | |
| kill the concept of an INBOX, it is a relic from single-channel operation.
 | |
| if somebody needs it, he can have two stores with different Paths. the path
 | |
| can name a single (in-)box (curr. broken with maildir). an empty box name
 | |
| actually means empty, so the IMAP mailbox should use INBOX for Path (can't
 | |
| make that the default, as it would mess up the NAMESPACE).
 | |
| 
 | |
| add daemon mode. primary goal: keep imap password in memory.
 | |
| also: idling mode.
 | |
| 
 | |
| parallel fetching of multiple mailboxes.
 | |
| 
 | |
| set_flags:
 | |
| - imap: grouping commands for efficiency
 | |
| - callback should get the flags actually affected. but then, why could flag
 | |
|   changes fail at all?
 | |
| 
 | |
| add streaming from fetching to storing.
 | |
| 
 | |
| handle custom flags (keywords).
 | |
| 
 | |
| handle google IMAP extensions.
 | |
| 
 | |
| 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.
 | |
| note that all interaction needs to happen on the slave side probably.
 | |
| 
 | |
| don't SELECT boxes unless really needed; in particular not for appending,
 | |
| and in write-only mode not before changes are made.
 | |
| problem: UIDVALIDITY change detection is delayed, significantly complicating
 | |
| matters.
 | |
| 
 | |
| 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.
 | |
| 
 | |
| maybe throw out the ctx->recent stuff - it's used only for one info message.
 | |
| 
 | |
| 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
 | |
| - recovering from UIDVALIDITY change (uw-imap < 2004.352 does this a lot)
