    • hg.m.o mirror inside our build network

    • Try Server improvements as a side-effect of the hg mirror
      • Talking to the hg mirror (via /etc/hosts for now)
      • Faster builds already!
      • Not using --uncompressed yet, to try it, include this patch in your next try build

rkent

I'm working in the following areas:

  • Filter functionality
    • bug 198100 This bug enables running a normal filter after the bayes filter, which enables junk-related search terms, and IMAP body search. I decided to change direction on this slightly, automating the selection of when to run the filter, so I removed a patch from review.
    • bug 495519 "Allow extensions to add custom search terms" is largely working, just cleaning up some of the UI hooks.
    • bug 310359 "search all address fields capability (Bcc:s too!)" is holding while a new contributor (Dossy) considers working on a piece of it in bug 488577 "Support BCC in online IMAP search"
    • bug 105169 "Filter for Attachments" has a discussion going in m.d.a.t about management of MIME processing, which is the key issue here.
    • bug 497622 "IMAP cross-server move fails silently after a copy to a different folder" addresses a long-standing critical bug, that the copy service sometimes loses message copies. It primarily occurs in filtering operations, including bug 448337.
    • bug 257415 "Add filtering for IMAP folders other than the INBOX" has a working patch that be used by an extension to enable this.
  • Database information preservation
    • landed bug 340866 which is the last of the main bugs in this series.
    • Additional bugs in special circumstances still exist, including bug 495666 and bug 368415
  • NEW flag management.
    • Landed bug 272963 "Status of incoming mail is not set to 'new' before filtering can act on it" Although aimed at filters, it changed NEW flag management slightly in a critical way.
    • The mother bug here is bug 372372 "Search folder for NEW items does not display correct counts". I have a patch I am running here that, in combination with 272963, allows NEW flag search folders to give correct counts for the first time. However, because it never worked before, there are many missing notifications that need to be found and fixed in followup bugs.
