It can be used e.g. as a default in the file saving dialog. Also display the original filename in
the message info. For these purposes add Param::Filename in addition to Param::File and use it as an
attachment filename in sent emails.
Opening the same account (context) from multiple processes is dangerous, can result in duplicate
downloads of the same message etc. Same for account manager, attempts to modify the same
accounts.toml even if done atomically with may result in corrupted files as atomic replacement
procedure does not expect that multiple processes may write to the same temporary file.
accounts.toml cannot be used as a lockfile because it is replaced during atomic update. Therefore, a
new file next to accounts.toml is needed to prevent starting second account manager in the same
directory.
But iOS needs to be able to open accounts from multiple processes at the same time. This is required
as the "share-to-DC extension" is a separate process by iOS design -- this process may or may not be
started while the main app is running. Accounts are not altered however by this extension, so let's
add to the `Accounts::new()` constructor an `rdwr` parameter which allows to read the accounts
config w/o locking the lockfile.
Webxdc update messages may contain
long lines that get hard-wrapped
and may corrupt JSON if the message
is not encrypted.
base64-encode the update part
to avoid hard wrapping.
This is not necessary for encrypted
messages, but does not introduce
size overhead as OpenPGP messages
are compressed.
The test checks that if webxdc update is too large to
download with the current `download_limit`,
it is applied afterwards when the user manually downloads the update message.
Some Dovecot servers are configured
to alias "INBOX.DeltaChat" and "DeltaChat" to the same folder.
In this case Delta Chat moves new emails from "INBOX"
to "DeltaChat", but then discovers the same mail in "INBOX.DeltaChat"
and tries to move it to "DeltaChat" again.
Each time a MOVE command is issued to move the message
from "INBOX.DeltaChat" to "DeltaChat", the message gets a new UID.
To prevent such IMAP move loop between aliased folders,
we do not move the message if we have already seen it on IMAP,
i.e. we have its Message-ID in the `imap` table.
Note that we do not use `rfc724_mid_exists`,
because it checks the `msgs` table and would consider
BCC-self messages seen even before we see them in the Inbox,
preventing their move to the DeltaChat folder.
Duplicate messages and messages without Message-IDs
are not moved anymore, but this is better
than having an infinite move loop.
Normally the message has UID 1,
but this is not true when account is reused.
In this case the message may be
"Marked messages 2 in folder DeltaChat as seen."
and the test times out waiting for
"Marked messages 1 in folder DeltaChat as seen."
This patch adds new C APIs
dc_get_next_msgs() and dc_wait_next_msgs(),
and their JSON-RPC counterparts
get_next_msgs() and wait_next_msgs().
New configuration "last_msg_id"
tracks the last message ID processed by the bot.
get_next_msgs() returns message IDs above
the "last_msg_id".
wait_next_msgs() waits for new message notification
and calls get_next_msgs().
wait_next_msgs() can be used to build
a separate message processing loop
independent of the event loop.
Async Python API get_fresh_messages_in_arrival_order()
is deprecated in favor of get_next_messages().
Introduced Python APIs:
- Account.wait_next_incoming_message()
- Message.is_from_self()
- Message.is_from_device()
Introduced Rust APIs:
- Context.set_config_u32()
- Context.get_config_u32()
`install_python_bindings.py` was not used by CI
and scripts, except for `scripts/run-python-test.sh`
which only used it to invoke `cargo`.
Instead of using an additional script,
run cargo directly.
The documentation is updated to remove
references to `install_python_bindings.py`.
The section "Installing bindings from source"
was in fact incorrect as it suggested
running `tox --devenv` first and only then
compiling the library with `install_python_bindings.py`.
Now it explicitly says to run cargo first
and then install the package without using `tox`.
`tox` is still used for running the tests
and setting up development environment.
.wait_for_seen() is unreliable, because sometimes Dovecot
sends only EXISTS to the IDLE connection, but not the FETCH.
Dovecot sends updates like FETCH only if some
connection has already observed the message in previous state
without the \Seen flag.
To avoid this race condition, wait until the core sets the flag,
then FETCH the message manually and check that the flag is set.
