Attachments are no longer stored apart from their message (they were kept
twice: base64 inside the raw message and decoded on their own). The indexer
records the MIME part (attachments.part_index, migration 0023); downloads,
zip, inline images, thumbnails and forwarding take it out of the message;
videos stream from a short-lived copy (kept a day, 1 GiB per user). A
background pass on worker start removes the copies stored before, each only
after checking it can be taken out again (spec App. D §D.6 item 1, criterion
corrected to <= 60%).
A nightly job (03:47, after the Trash/Spam purge) removes files nothing
refers to any more — deleted or purged messages, previews of attachments
gone, uploads no draft has used for a week, expired streaming copies. Files
younger than an hour are left alone; a sent message waiting for its Sent copy
is held until its job is done. Account removal keeps files a draft still uses.

Gmail sync (SPEC: Gmail sync):
- Provider fetches X-GM-LABELS when X-GM-EXT-1 is advertised; parses custom labels
(system labels dropped, mUTF-7 decoded) onto RemoteMessage.
- Engine syncs only system folders + All Mail for Gmail, skips every label folder,
and dedupes the All Mail pass by Message-ID — kills the INBOX/All-Mail duplication.
- Custom labels ride the message.new event; the labels plugin subscribes and maps
them to chips as "<name> [Gmail]" (per-message + thread aggregate + known set),
so labels fill in gradually with the sync window. Non-ASCII labels decode right.
Labels self-healing (message-driven reconcile):
- Per-message keys are the source of truth; t: aggregates and _labels are derived.
Reconcile drops labels of deleted messages, regroups survivors by their current
thread (fixing JWZ thread merges), rewrites changed t: keys, and rebuilds _labels
from live messages — keeping user labels, dropping orphaned Gmail ones.
- New SDK reads: sdk.threads.existing / sdk.messages.threads_of. Sidebar refreshes
live via a plugin.labels.changed WS event on new labels.
Account deletion: prune threads left empty after the cascade (they were user-scoped,
so only messages cascaded) + de-list the account from surviving cross-account threads.
Sync SPAM: opt-in per-account sync_spam (migration 0015, default off) — the engine
skips the Junk folder in backfill and poll unless enabled; wizard checkbox added.
Robustness / UX:
- WebSocket auto-reconnects with backoff and resyncs on (re)connect, and account
add/delete invalidates threads/labels — no more hard refresh for live updates.
- Backfill banner + sidebar ring also require done < total, so a completed account
can't leave a stuck "X of X".
- Scrub lone UTF-16 surrogates from parsed headers/bodies so bad messages no longer
crash the backfill on Postgres text/JSONB.
- Ultimo signet logo in the Mail/Calendar/Contacts sidebar header (and at the top of
the collapsed rail), via the shared plugin-ui.css + MailLayout.

Search:
- Meilisearch backend (app/search/meili.py) + factory wiring; pinned SDK 2.7
- Search-as-you-type: debounced query + Postgres prefix matching, built from
the DB tokenizer so full email addresses match (email stays one lexeme)
- Saved searches API + sidebar virtual mailboxes; save affordance in the box
Account sync windows (SPEC §12 M2):
- Choose at setup: All (recent 30d first, then remainder), Last 3 months, New only
- Per-account sync_window + "Sync remaining mail" from settings (idempotent re-run)
- Provider windowed backfill (SINCE/BEFORE), message_count, newest_uid
- migration 0012: accounts.sync_window + backfill_total/backfill_done
Backfill progress UX:
- Floating progress card (auto-dissolves after 10s) + spinning sidebar ring that
fills with the account colour; driven by sync.progress over WS
Thread list pagination:
- Server-side offset + accurate grand total, with filter/order in SQL; working
prev/next across all synced mail
Reading panel:
- "Load images" one-off now actually renders images (?images=1) without trusting
the sender; envelope carries images_allowed so a trusted sender shows no prompt
Threading:
- Subject fallback no longer merges messages that declare an explicit (different)
parent; true siblings still group via a shared-parent reference match. Fixes
unrelated auto-replies with the same subject landing in one thread
Backend 257 tests green, ruff + mypy --strict clean; frontend tsc/eslint/vitest clean.

- Coordinator subscribes to account.state_changed over Redis pub/sub: going
live marks the account claimable at once; disabled/deleted/error tears the
owning runner down immediately (≤30s) instead of waiting for the lease TTL.
- delete_account now publishes account.state_changed:deleted after dropping the
account from sync:live, so teardown is event-driven, not just fencing.
- AccountRunner gains a verify loop (defense in depth): it periodically confirms
the account is still live and flags itself dead if not; the coordinator reaps
dead runners and releases their lease. Zombie loops are structurally impossible.
- New core event user.active (SPEC §8.3), published on login and on every WS
connect; consumed for tier promotion in step 5.
- Acceptance: added event-driven teardown test (isolated from fencing/verify).

Ownership of an account now moves through a Redis lease so any number of sync
workers can run against the same account set with no double-IDLE.
- leases.py: sync:live registry + sync:lease:{id} (SET NX EX) with owner-checked
Lua renew/release; mark_live / mark_not_live helpers.
- coordinator.py: SyncCoordinator claims from sync:live up to MAX_ACCOUNTS_PER_
WORKER, renews every LEASE_RENEW (fences the runner on lease loss), reconciles
sync:live against Postgres, heartbeats a worker key, and rebalances when it
holds well above a fair share.
- supervisor start/stop now drive a coordinator; engine._set_state and
delete_account maintain sync:live membership (+ lease drop = fencing teardown).
- config: MAX_ACCOUNTS_PER_WORKER, LEASE_TTL, LEASE_RENEW.
- tests: acceptance 1-3 (single ownership, crash failover, create/delete
lifecycle) driving the real coordinator + Redis with faked IMAP loops.
