This is to avoid sorting incoming messages that
are slightly in the past above system messages
about SecureJoin. SecureJoin messages are
timed according to smeared timestamp,
so even in the local tests they are in the future
by a few seconds.
We set timestamp of this info message to 0
to make it always appear in the beginning of the chat.
To avoid new chats being sorted to the end of the chatlist,
we ignore such 0 and use chat creation timestamp
when sorting the chatlist.
Closes https://github.com/chatmail/core/issues/7980.
Unpublished transports are not advertised to contacts, and self-sent messages are not sent there, so that we don't cause extra messages to the corresponding inbox, but can still receive messages from contacts who don't know the new relay addresses yet.
- This adds `list_transports_ex()` and `set_transport_unpublished()` JsonRPC functions
- By default, transports are published, but when updating, all existing transports except for the primary one become unpublished in order not to break existing users that followed https://delta.chat/legacy-move
- It is not possible to unpublish the primary transport, and setting a transport as primary automatically sets it to published
An alternative would be to change the existing list_transports API rather than adding a new one list_transports_ex. But to be honest, I don't mind the _ex prefix that much, and I am wary about compatibility issues. But maybe it would be fine; see b08ba4bb8 for how this would look.
this adds an api to make the newest incoming message of a chat as "fresh",
so that UI can offer a "mark chat unread" option as usual for messengers
(eg. swipe right on iOS toggels between "read" and "unread").
"mark unread" is one of the most requested missing features,
used by many ppl to organize their every day messenger usage -
tho "pinning" and "saved messages" are similar,
it seems to be missed often.
we follow a very simple approach here
and just reset the state to `MessageState::InFresh`.
this does not introduce new states or flows.
therefore, chats without any incoming message cannot be marked as fresh.
in practise, this is probably not really an issue,
as the "mark fresh" is usually used to undo a "mark noticed" operation -
and then you have incoming message.
also, most status messages as "all messages are e2ee" count as incoming.
to avoid double sending of MDN,
we remove `Param::WantsMdn` once the MDN is scheduled.
in case MDN are used for syncing, MDN is still sent as before.
many other messenger show a "badge without number",
if we want that as well,
we can always track the "manually set as fresh" state in a parameter.
but for now, it is fine without and showing a "1", which alsso makes sense as badges may be summed up.
there is an iOS pr that uses this new feature,
jsonrpc is left out until api is settled.
also out of scope is synchronisation -
main reason is that "mark noticed" is not synced as well, so we avoid an imbalance here.
both, "mark noticed" as well as "mark fresh" should be synced however,
as soon as this feature is merged.
encryption info needs a dedicated string for "Messages are end-to-end encrypted"
as the UI will add more infomation to the info messages,
smth. as "Tap for more information".
an alternative fix would have been to let the UI render the info-message
differently, but adding another string to core causes less friction.
If one of broadcast owner's devices didn't add a new subscriber for any reason, e.g. because of
missing SecureJoin messages, this device shall add "member added" messages when syncing the member
list from the `SetPgpContacts` message.
Timestamp renewal was introduced in 1dbf924c6a "feat:
chat::resend_msgs: Guarantee strictly increasing time in the Date header" so that re-sent messages
can be deduplicated on the reciver side, but the deduplication logic doesn't depend on "Date"
anymore.
fix#7877
The bug was: If there is no chat description, and the chat description
is set to an empty string, the INSERT statement inserted a row with an
empty chat description, and therefore from the view of the INSERT
statement, something changed.
This PR fixes this by simply loading the chat description first, and
comparing it.
instead of Alice saying to Bob "You changed the chat description",
we now say "[Chat description changed, please update ...]
i was also considering to say "[Chat description changed to:\n\n...]"
but then there is no incentive for ppl to update, and chat descriptions
for chat creation would still be missing. and this is probably far more
often used.
successor of https://github.com/chatmail/core/pull/7829
fix https://github.com/chatmail/core/issues/7766
Implementation notes:
- Descriptions are only sent with member additions, when the description
is changed, and when promoting a previously-unpromoted group, in order
not to waste bandwith.
- Descriptions are not loaded everytime a chat object is loaded, because
they are only needed for the profile. Instead, they are in their own
table, and can be loaded with their own JsonRPC call.

This includes forwarding of long messages. Also this fixes sending, but more likely resending of
forwarded messages for which the original message was deleted, because now we save HTML to the db
immediately when creating a forwarded message.

It has a really complex logic, so it's better to avoid calling it if possible than think which side
effects and performance penalties it has. It was never called here before adding forwarding messages
across contexts (accounts).
This is not possible for webxdcs and vCards currently however, so add workarounds for them:
- Use translated "Mini App" as the webxdc name.
- Use just "👤" instead of the vCard summary (i.e. the vCard contact name).

This PR fixes a bug that old channel members were remembered in the
database even after they left the channel. Concretely, they remained in
the `past_members` table that's only meant for groups.
Though it was not a bad bug; we're anyways not cleaning up old contacts.
We currently synchronize "seen" status of messages by setting `\Seen` flag on IMAP and then looking
for new `\Seen` flags using `CONDSTORE` IMAP extension. This approach has multiple disadvantages:
- It requires that the server supports `CONDSTORE` extension. For example Maddy does not support
CONDSTORE yet: https://github.com/foxcpp/maddy/issues/727
- It leaks the seen status to the server without any encryption.
- It requires more than just store-and-forward queues and prevents replacing IMAP with simpler
protocols like POP3 or UUCP or some HTTP-based API for queue polling.
A simpler approach is to send MDNs to self when `Config::BccSelf` (aka multidevice) is enabled,
regardless of whether the message requested and MDN. If MDN was requested and we have MDNs enabled,
then also send to the message sender, but MDN to self is sent regardless of whether read receipts
are actually enabled.
`sync_seen_flags()` and `CONDSTORE` check is better completely removed, maybe after one
release. `store_seen_flags_on_imap()` can be kept for unencrypted non-chat messages.
One potential problem with sending MDNs is that it may trigger ratelimits on some providers and
count as another recipient.
This fixes the bug when a new transport doesn't become primary on the 2nd device because INBOX from
the new transport isn't fully fetched. Now the `Transports` sync message is received from the old
transport, but as it has updated "From", it updates the primary transport correspondingly. NB: I/O
for the new primary transport isn't immediately started however, this needs a separate fix.
When accepting a chat, its members are promoted to `Origin::CreateChat`, but for groups it makes
sense to use lower origin because users don't always check all members before accepting a chat and
may not want to have the group members mixed with existing contacts. `IncomingTo` fits here by its
definition: "additional To:'s of incoming message of known sender", i.e. we assume that the sender
of some message is known to the user. This way we can show contacts coming from groups in the bottom
of contact list, maybe even add some separator later. It makes sense not to hide such contacts
completely, otherwise if the user remembers the contact name, but not the chat it's a member of, it
would be difficult to find the contact.
Add `chat::forward_msgs_2ctx()` which takes another context as a parameter and forwards messages to
it and its jsonrpc wrapper `CommandApi::forward_messages_to_account()`.
We periodically forget to remove new params from forwarded messages as this can't be catched by
existing tests, some examples:
bfc08abe88a1837aeb8c56b2361f01
This may leak confidential data. Instead, it's better to explicitly list params that we want to
forward, then if we forget to forward some param, a test on forwarding messages carrying the new
functionality will break, or the bug will be reported earlier, it's easier to notice that some info
is missing than some extra info is leaked.
This makes `Contact::get_all()` and `Chatlist::try_load()` case-insensitive for non-ASCII chat and
contact names as well. The same approach as in f6f4ccc6ea "feat:
Case-insensitive search for non-ASCII messages (#5052)" is used: `chats.name_normalized` and
`contacts.name_normalized` colums are added which store lowercased/normalized names (for a contact,
if the name is unset, it's a normalized authname). If a normalized name is the same as the
chat/contact name, it's not stored to reduce the db size. A db migration is added for 10000 random
chats and the same number of the most recently seen contacts, for users it will probably migrate all
chats/contacts and for bots which may have more data it's not important.
Fix#7435
For most messages, `calc_sort_timestamp()` makes sure that they are at the correct place; esp. that they are not above system messages or other noticed/seen messages.
Most callers of `add_info_msg()`, however, didn't call `calc_sort_timestamp()`, and just used `time()` or `smeared_time()` to get the sort timestamp. Because of this, system messages could sometimes wrongly be sorted above other messages.
This PR fixes this by making the sort timestamp optional in `add_info_msg*()`. If the sort timestamp isn't passed, then the message is sorted to the bottom of the chat. `sent_rcvd_timestamp` is not optional anymore, because we need _some_ timestamp that can be shown to the user (most callers just pass `time()` there).
We use query_and_then() instead of query_map() function now.
The difference is that row processing function
returns anyhow::Result, so simple fallible processing
like JSON parsing can be done inside of it
when calling query_map_vec() and query_map_collect()
without having to resort to query_map()
and iterating over all rows again afterwards.
