# de4b1ded 20-Jan-2016 Axel Dörfler <axeld@pinc-software.de>

BMailProtocol: Removed delete/append methods.

* The mail system is file based which makes these methods pretty much
superfluous.


# 81805393 04-Jan-2016 Axel Dörfler <axeld@pinc-software.de>

IMAP: setting flags, and body fetching works now.

* The direct methods in BMailProtocol now forward the request to the
looper; it's no longer the mail_daemon's responsibility to know
anything about that protocol.
* It's in desperate need of refactoring, but it doesn't hurt to add
it to the repository as is.


# 62eec600 21-Nov-2015 Axel Dörfler <axeld@pinc-software.de>

SMTP works again.

* The message to send the mails never made it to the add-on looper.
* Mail protocol threads now have names.
* Added a "public" BOutboundMailProtocol::SendMessages() call that sends
itself a message (even the correct one this time).


# d33e4744 03-Jul-2013 Axel Dörfler <axeld@pinc-software.de>

IMAP: downloading mails is now working.

* Changed the way the attributes are written to make sure that everything
that can be written once is in fact written just once.
* The rename code in BMailProtocol::_ProcessFetchedHeader() was broken,
and caused the hang of the last commit.


# 549949b2 26-Jun-2013 Axel Dörfler <axeld@pinc-software.de>

Mail Kit: Changed how filter changes work.

* BMailFilter::HeaderFetched() now only alters the entry_ref, and returns
B_MOVE_MAIL_ACTION to move a mail.
* Instead of potentially moving the file around several times, the
BMailProtocol now takes care of carrying out the filter action just once,
including trying to make the file name unique.
* This also allows the IMAP add-on to know the final location of the mail,
and thus downloading a message actually works.
* However, with my test inbox, it currently hangs, and a current Debugger does
not work on my older system -- I guess I need to update.
* Replaced the duplicated space mechanism within the "HaikuMailFormatFilter"
that is substantially faster, and handles all whitespace, not just spaces.
It will also replace tabs with spaces.


# f8b5e17a 18-Jan-2013 Axel Dörfler <axeld@pinc-software.de>

Minor cleanup.


# 93608baf 16-Jan-2013 Axel Dörfler <axeld@pinc-software.de>

Clarified progress parameter names for the MailProtocol.


# ca3341c7 12-Nov-2012 Axel Dörfler <axeld@pinc-software.de>

Major mail protocol/filter settings rework.

* Instead of abusing BArchive::Archive() we now use a BMailSettingsView as
a base view for all filter/protocol settings that works with
BMailAddOnSettings.
* Cleanups in E-mail which is now completely layout friendly. But also still
crashes when changing the views.


# 146357b5 30-Oct-2012 Axel Dörfler <axeld@pinc-software.de>

Completed transition to the new mail API; ie. it compiles.

* Completely untested yet. Unlikely to work yet.


# 715bf3d1 26-Oct-2012 Axel Dörfler <axeld@pinc-software.de>

Work in progress of mail rework.

* Not everything compiles; all protocols, and inbound filters do, though.
* Renamed a few classes to give a better idea what they are for; prefixed
public classes with the 'B' prefix.
* Moved ProtocolConfigView's classes into the BPrivate namespace.
* Moved BMailFilter into its own file.
* Added BMailFilter::DescriptiveName(). This is now used by the RuleFilter
in order to give a description of what it's doing (ie. no more dozens of
"Rule filter" entries in the preferences).
* Removed no longer used MailAddon.h.
* Renamed Addon to AddOn where found, since that is more consistent with the
rest of the API.
* Merged the former MailProtocol with the former MailProtocolThread; the
differentiation between those two was pretty messy.
* All configuration views touched so far are now using the layout kit.
* The RuleFilter is currently broken functionality wise; I have not yet decided
how to solve the stuff it uses (TriggerFileMove() does not exist anymore,
for example).
* BMailAddOnSettings (formerly known as AddonSettings) now directly subclass
BMessage; there are no Settings() and EditSettings() method anymore. The
class uses a copy of itself to determine whether or not it has been changed.
* Lots of cleanup.


# 0f11280e 26-Oct-2012 Axel Dörfler <axeld@pinc-software.de>

Minor MailNotifier cleanup.

* Renamed to BMailNotifier, as it's part of the public API.
* Renamed Notifier.{cpp|h} to DefaultNotifier.{cpp|h} as that's the class it
implements.
* Made the mail counts uint32, and the byte counts uint64.


# e0676bb9 26-Oct-2012 Axel Dörfler <axeld@pinc-software.de>

Fixed typo.


# b8d2bbd6 03-Mar-2011 Clemens Zeidler <clemens.zeidler@googlemail.com>

- Partial downloaded messages are now opened by Mail and not by the mail daemon. Mail request the body fetch and get notified when the daemon is done. During this time the Mail window title is showing "Downloading: subject". This fixes #7256.
- Some cleanup in Mail.

# 9967dfd9 21-Feb-2011 Clemens Zeidler <clemens.zeidler@googlemail.com>

- Extend MarkMailAsRead to take a flag not only a bool value. Write an additional MAIL:read attribute.
- Remove some hard coded paths.
- Catch failure of FindMessage correctly. Thanks Axel.

# 0e657c0b 20-Feb-2011 Clemens Zeidler <clemens.zeidler@googlemail.com>

Remember tracker message when downloading a partial message and open it with Mail. This is needed to get the next/previous message after downloading the body.

# 1af4fa4b 08-Feb-2011 Clemens Zeidler <clemens.zeidler@googlemail.com>

Major restructuring of the mail server:

Accounts are now stored in a separate file. Previously they where somehow magically assembled from the chain ids. Now its possible to remove a account temporary by removing the account file form the account folder.

Each account could have an inbound protocol, an outbound protocol and some filters.

Mails are now associated with an account and not with a chain. This required to replace the chain id attribute by an account attribute.

Replace BMailFilter and BMailChain by a less general approach. Basically the chain had a list of filters and call the ProcessMailMessage for each filter. This made it sometime difficult to understand what is going on, e.g. sometimes a filter used information gathered by another filters. The new MailProtocol and MailFilter classes are calling more dedicated hook functions, e.g. HeaderFetched or MessageReadyToSend.

As before all MailProtocol's (plus their filters) are running in their own thread.

Cleaned up the error and status window a bit. Abstracted the interface to these windows. Should be easy to write a BNotification api back-end now.

Parsing of mail headers is much faster now. Fetching the headers of a large mailbox takes ~min and not ~hour now! Initial checkout time is in the same order like Opera. The problem was the massive use of fgets in parse_header (mail_util.cpp) now the complete header is read in one go. Furthermore, only interesting fields are extracted.

Remove some unused files, BeOS relicts... Feel free to translate the mail server and remove the own language system (headers/private/mail/MDRLanguage.h).

Sorry for the remaining old (and new) coding style issues, sometime just ignore them, to many :(

# f7215ac8 20-Sep-2004 Nathan Whitehorn <nwhitehorn@nowhere.fake>

Imported MDR. Some code still not entirely functional -- I haven't been able to figure out how to detect SSL, so IMAP and POP have it turned off. PPP auto-detect is also not functional at the moment. Other than that, it seems to work beautifully. Packaging will come later.
