The reading view's toolbar gains the side-panel toggle on a phone too. It opens
Calendar/People/Attachments as a right-hand drawer over a dimmed backdrop,
closed by its X, the backdrop or Escape, and put away when the conversation
changes. It keeps its own open state so the desktop's remembered panel never
opens on a phone, and it mounts on first use only.

The server only queues a thread move, so the refetch right after the request
still carried the row, and un-hiding it then brought it back until the live
update removed it for good. A row now stays hidden until a fetched list no
longer contains it, with a 30 s fallback in case the move never lands.
Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5.5 <noreply@anthropic.com>
The hover actions waited for the server before the list reacted. The row now
leaves the list at once and the request runs behind it; a failed request puts
it back. In search the row greys out immediately instead, since it may still
match the query.

Clicking Send now closes the compose window right away. The undo offer moved
out of the composer into a toast: bottom right on a desktop, a small "Undo"
pill with the countdown bottom left on a phone, where sending also returns to
the message list. An undone send reopens the draft in a composer. The
popped-out compose window keeps its inline undo bar, since closing it would
lose the offer.
Also: drop the "Reply" label from the From row; on a phone show the Send
button as its icon alone, enlarge the Send/Attach/Close icons by half, put the
logo beside the menu button, make the reading view's back arrow bolder, and
make the list's pagination bar half again as big.

Below 768px (or a touch screen under 500px tall) the mail view becomes one
column at a time: the list full screen, with a menu button beside the search
box that slides the sidebar in as a 70%-wide drawer (tap outside, pick a
folder or press Esc to close), and a floating compose button. Opening a
conversation or a draft shows the reading pane full screen with a back
arrow; composers, including reply/reply-all/forward, open full screen.
List rows stack sender/date, subject and snippet; tapping an avatar selects
a row and the bulk actions sit above the list. The app switcher, Settings
link, select-all box, resizers and right panel are hidden on a phone, and
the composer header drops the Attach label and pop-out at phone width.
Everything is gated on useIsMobile(); the desktop layout renders as before
(checked by screenshot comparison at 1440x900).

Clicking Compose with a window already open cleared what you had typed.
MailLayout bumped a React key on every open to force a fresh editor, and
switching folders ran an effect that closed the composer outright. Both
were deliberate when only one composer could exist at a time.
Underneath them sat a sharper constraint: RichTextEditor seeds its
contentEditable exactly once, so ANY remount silently discards the body.
Every part of this change is shaped by keeping a composer mounted.
Windows now live in one ordered list, each with a stable id used as its
React key, rendered by ComposeDock as a single keyed array — open windows
and collapsed title bars together. Splitting the open one into a child
slot of its own would hand its state to whichever window took its place,
which is exactly what happened the first time around.
- A minimize control, first of the four window icons, collapses a
window to a title bar showing its subject (or "New message"). The
subtree is hidden, never unmounted.
- Clicking Compose parks the open windows and appends a new one, so
each click pushes the previous window one place left.
- Restoring a window touches only that window; several can be open at
once. When they stop fitting, the least recently reached-for ones
are DRAWN as bars — state untouched, so they spring back open when
room returns.
- Expanding matches the reading pane, measured live, and moves the
window to the end of the row: the row is right-anchored, so a bar
after it would shove an expanded window off the pane and across the
list and sidebar.
- A window is given its height rather than sizing to its content. Left
to itself it grew with the body until the top ran off the screen,
and the `flex-1` body never became scrollable because there was no
leftover space to divide.
- Leaving a folder un-expands a window instead of closing it.
- The dock row is pointer-events-none — its box spans the tallest
window in it, and as a bare div it shielded the mail list beside it.
- Drafts opened from the Drafts folder now load in the reading pane,
keyed by draft id, with the open one marked in the list.
Also fixes a blank draft saved for every composer opened: the signature
effect guarded itself with a "first run" flag, which StrictMode's double
invocation spends on the first pass. The second pass rewrote the
signature of an untouched composer, marking it dirty. Keyed on the
account instead, so it is idempotent.

Paging while scrolled down kept the old scroll position, so clicking
next dropped you into the middle of the following fifty with nothing to
signal you had moved.
The list is virtualized, so there is no natural anchor to reset — the
scroll container has to be told. MessageList now takes the page number
and scrolls back to the top when it changes.

"Mark as Spam" moved the message but left it on screen. Two causes, both fixed
generally rather than for this one action.
`move_job` published message.changed without a thread_id, so the WS handler
invalidated the message list but never the thread the user was reading — the
panel had no reason to refetch. It now names the thread.
And a thread whose last visible message has gone should not linger. MailLayout
closes the panel when the open thread comes back empty, whoever emptied it —
core action or plugin.
`move_to_special` now also publishes the move immediately rather than waiting
for the IMAP job, since a plugin acting on the user's behalf has no client-side
handle to update optimistically the way the core endpoint's caller does.
That exposed an ordering bug: the optimistic event reaches the passive-learning
hook, which would re-teach the lesson /learn had just taught. /learn now records
`learned` before moving, so the hook's dedup stands down — and records it with
an upsert, because provider-filed spam has no verdict row of ours to update.
One real mistake on the way: the event first reported the destination folder as
the source, which would have made every move look like a no-op to anything
reading the pair.

- Backfill: show the sidebar spinner + "Preparing…" banner during the brief window
after account creation when state=backfilling but total is not yet counted
(total===0), so a freshly-added account shows progress immediately instead of
looking done until a refresh. The stuck-at-100% guard is preserved.
- Settings: a centered spinner overlay ("Removing account…") covers the screen from
confirm until the (slow) server cascade + accounts refetch complete, so the row
no longer appears frozen before it disappears.
- Add-account wizard: the manual password hint now includes Outlook and gains a
"Help" link opening a popup with per-provider direct links to enable 2-step
verification and generate the app password (Gmail, Outlook, Yahoo, iCloud).

Sender avatars (privacy-safe, server-fetched, cached):
- New GET /api/avatar resolves Gravatar (d=404) then the sender domain's favicon
under the SSRF guard, Redis-cached (hit+miss); gated by SENDER_AVATARS_ENABLED.
GuardedResponse gains raw bytes. Shown in the mail list, reading pane, People
panel, and Contacts (overlay that falls back to initials on a miss).
PDF preview:
- Password-protected PDFs now prompt in-place and retry (pdf.js PasswordException),
with a clear error for other load failures instead of a blank overlay. The
password is remembered per attachment until the thread is left; clicking the
field no longer dismisses the overlay.
Contacts:
- Autosave reply recipients: message.sent now carries to/cc (name+email); the
contacts plugin subscribes and adds any non-contact recipients to the Autosaved
group. Contact avatars show the gravatar/favicon via /api/avatar.
Mail views / retention:
- Clicking an account shows all its mail except Trash/Spam (was inbox-only).
- Daily cron autopurge_trash_spam permanently deletes Trash/Spam older than
TRASH_RETENTION_DAYS (default 30; 0 disables) — server EXPUNGE + local rows.
UI polish:
- Ultimo signet logo in the Mail/Calendar/Contacts sidebar header and collapsed
rail; consistent 11px top margin and vertically-aligned header row across states
(fixed-size flex icon buttons); SVG favicon on the browser tab.

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.

Labels:
- Moved labelling out of the "+label" message slot into Mail: label chips on the
thread subject bar (removable ✕) and before list subjects, and a Labels submenu
in the per-message Actions menu (multi-select checkboxes + "Create new…").
Per-message storage kept; the reading pane writes a thread-union aggregate so the
list (no message ids) can show chips.
- Sidebar LABELS section rewritten: aligned monocolor tag rows, collapsible
(collapsed by default), inline "+" create popover, hover "−" delete with a confirm
popover, and click-to-filter the mail list by label.
- Backend: batch message/thread label reads, thread aggregate, create + delete
(delete unhooks from all mail), and GET /labels/{name}/threads. Core GET /threads
gained an `ids` param to power the label view. Removed the plugin-pages list from
the Mail sidebar.
Plain-text mail now renders in Lato (self-hosted at /fonts, @font-face'd into the
sandboxed message iframe) instead of the monospace <pre> default.
Calendar right-panel (embed mode): restored the "…" view-options menu, pinned the
toolbar + mini-calendar (only the agenda scrolls), plain "All calendars" button
(inline resets), and the event popover now closes on any outside click.

New slide-out right panel in Mail (hidden by default, toggle in the reading pane,
resizable, persisted). Three tabs:
- Calendar: mounts the calendar plugin bundle in a new embed:"panel" mode, so the
agenda, mini-month, event popover, event form and search results are the calendar
app's OWN code — future changes propagate to both. Events click → real popover;
New event / Edit / "Invite all" open the shared event form in the panel; search
shows the calendar's results panel; All-calendars filter + open-in-new-tab.
- People: conversation senders / contact books (All/Recent/VIPs/Autosaved) drilling
into a contact detail (Call/Message/Compose/Invite, related mail, find-all);
"Compose to all" / "Invite all to new event".
- Attachments: every attachment in the thread, grouped by sender, with download and
clickable previews (reuses the mail AttachmentPreview overlay for supported types).
Calendar bundle: mount(el, ctx, props) reads embed/newEventGuests; renderEmbed() +
panelBar/panelFoot; embed-aware agenda (TODAY); form/popover repositioned for the
narrow panel; guest deep-link accepts comma-separated emails.

Mail:
- New "More" (⋯) menu in the list sorting bar with "Mark all as read": POST
/threads/mark-read marks every unread thread in the current view (unified /
folder:<special> / account:<uuid>) as \Seen, pushes + publishes updates.
- Message iframe: no longer shows a spurious vertical scrollbar (display:block,
getBoundingClientRect+ceil sizing, overflow-y:hidden on the doc) and has
rounded corners.
- Deep links from Contacts: /mail?compose=1&to= opens a maximized prefilled
composer; /mail?q= prefills the search box.
Contacts:
- Detail pane shows all populated fields (work subtitle, phones, address, urls,
nickname, birthday). Company name is used as the display name when there's no
personal name (existing rows too). Editable "Add notes".
- Selection: checkbox reveals on avatar hover only; Groups/More bulk menus in
select mode; "N contacts selected" panel; filled yellow VIP star in list +
detail; pagination bottom bar; Lato pinned on form controls.
- Groups: "+" on the GROUPS header and "Create new" in the group menus (bulk
add/remove via POST /groups/{id}/add|remove, ownership-guarded).
- Rounded Mail-style list rows; removed the ⋯ button from the search bar;
Compose→Mail, Find-all-conversations→Mail search; Message button removed;
delete confirmation; resizable sidebar + list/detail split.
Calendar: the right panel (agenda / search) is now resizable.

Calendar plugin (webmail_plugin_calendar, non-removable core plugin):
- Local calendars/events CRUD with RLS isolation; recurrence expanded at
query time (DST-correct), EXDATE + detached-override merge.
- Calendar app bundle: month/week/day/3-day views, mini-month, event form
(color, show-as, timezone combobox, repeat, reminders, guests w/ recipient
autocomplete, Jitsi video call), event popover with RSVP badges, resizable/
collapsible left panel + theme toggle, overlap layout.
- iMIP invites: sdk.mail sends REQUEST from the organizer's mailbox (HTML +
text/calendar + invite.ics); public /rsvp endpoint (vault-sealed token)
records accepted/declined/tentative per attendee.
- "This and following" edit + scoped delete (this / this-and-following), with
a delete confirmation dialog for recurring events.
Core:
- Settings: time_format (12/24h, default 24h) + jitsi_server; new Integrations
section; date order follows time format (en-GB vs en-US) across Mail.
- Plugin SDK: mail (send from a user's account), vault (envelope encrypt),
multi-method SSRF-guarded http; AppSwitcher product switcher; full-bleed
PluginPage.
Mail HTML rendering:
- Sanitizer allows <style> blocks + class (CSS sanitized: drop script-like,
strip @import/url() when remote images blocked); SANITIZER_VERSION 3 so
already-indexed mail re-sanitizes on view.
- Attachments: a Content-Disposition: attachment part is a real attachment
even when it also carries a Content-ID (fixes hidden invite.ics).
Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.8 <noreply@anthropic.com>
Frontend:
- Full-screen attachment preview overlay (AttachmentPreview) for image/pdf/txt
plus office docs: .docx via docx-preview (rendered live into the sandboxed
iframe so header/footer VML images survive), .xlsx via xlsx-preview, and
.odt/.ods/.odp/.odg via a JSZip+DOMParser ODF walker (officeConvert).
- Type-aware attachment icons (green spreadsheet, blue document, red PDF,
image/archive); new document/image/spreadsheet/print SVGs.
- Composer: drag-drop attachments (body drop inserts images inline, else
attaches); inserted images are selectable/resizable/deletable (RichTextEditor).
- Undo-send: "Sending…" banner with live "N seconds to Undo" countdown.
- Search result list: pin/archive/delete update correctly; grey-out only for
search hits; scoped "Search in Trash/Spam".
Backend:
- Search: prefix (search-as-you-type) matching, email-address search, and
address-first result ordering; Trash/Junk excluded with scoped folder search.
- Attachments: RFC 6266 Content-Disposition for non-ASCII filenames; one-time
inline image loading.

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.

Backend:
- Collapse identical cross-account deliveries in a thread: new messages.delivery_id
(migration 0011) preserves the real Message-ID even when message_id_hdr is
synthesized (§7.1); get_thread groups by it and reports also_in_account_ids; the
list count counts distinct deliveries. Backfill script for existing rows.
Frontend:
- Bundle Lato (SIL OFL) as the UI font; unread mail-list rows use Black weight.
- Mail-list selection: hover-avatar checkbox, tri-state "select all", bulk
Archive/Pin/Delete (Restore/Delete in Archive/Trash/Spam) with a count in the
reading pane; unread blue dot; "also delivered to" note in the thread.
- Spacing/size tuning: sender-column width, icon gaps, avatar size, bar heights,
and a round of -1px font sizes across the sidebar, mail list, and reading pane.

Claude-Session: https://claude.ai/code/session_01U72FZiF1W1pb8XxyWBTREA
Backend:
- Restore returns each message to its original folder (e.g. Sent/Archive) instead
of always the Inbox: new messages.restore_mailbox_id (migration 0010) +
restore_thread_job.
- Drafts: expunge reconciliation for the Drafts poll (provider.list_uids /
_reconcile_drafts) clears phantom "remote" drafts; send + discard drop the
mirrored DB row; adopting a remote draft carries its real attachments into the
compose flow.
- Thread detail/list are folder-aware: individually trashed/spam messages are
hidden outside their folder, Trash/Spam show only their own messages, and the
mail-list message count matches the view.
Frontend:
- Thread reading panel: fix newest-first card overlap/spacing (expand-all and
single expand), hide Reply/Forward on trashed messages, close the Actions menu
on message-body (iframe) clicks, scroll to the inline composer, and prompt
Save draft / Discard on the X close.
- Composer: remount when switching drafts, dirty-tracking to stop duplicate IMAP
mirrors, and close the From/More dropdowns on outside click.
- Sidebar: collapse/expand toggle (icons-only ~60px rail) and a log-out icon on
Sign out.
- Mail-standard printing in a new window with reliable page margins (lib/print.ts).

Rework the conversation view to match the new dark-theme mockups:
- Subject bar gains a print button and an expand/collapse-all toggle (default
action expands all; collapsing leaves only the newest message open).
- Collapsed messages are compact single-line cards (40px avatar, colored sender
name, snippet, relative date) that overlap into a stack; alignment follows the
sort order (top edge for oldest-first, bottom edge for newest-first) and the
always-open newest card overlaps its neighbour in both orders.
- Expanded messages show sender+address (whole header row toggles collapse), a
detail disclosure (From/To/Cc/Subject/Date/Size), the message location
(Inbox/Sent), a read/unread circle (per-message flag toggle), a quick
Reply/Reply-all, and an Actions menu (reply/forward/print/delete). The
Reply/Reply all/Forward bar now sits inside the newest card above a divider.
- Message body: the quoted original is hidden by default with a "•••" toggle
injected after the "On … wrote:" attribution; the iframe now collapses-then-
measures so it shrinks back when the quote is hidden.
- Avatars use the sender's IMAP-account colour when the address matches one of
our accounts, else a stable per-sender hue; two initials for multi-word names.
- Brighter dark-theme border token; new print/expand-all/collapse-all icons.
Backend: add size_bytes to the message envelope (shown in message details).
Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.8 <noreply@anthropic.com>
Backend
- Sent copies: persist locally on send + periodic multi-folder CONDSTORE poll
(Sent/Archive/Trash/Junk) so they thread and show without an IDLE-only INBOX.
- Bcc: transmitted copy omits Bcc, Sent copy keeps it; store/display bcc_addr.
- Drafts: mirror local drafts to the IMAP Drafts folder (append/replace/expunge);
inbound sync of foreign drafts (un-threaded) with adopt-to-edit + dedup by UID.
- Per-user storage quota (5 GiB default) and manual "sync all folders" action.
- Account editing (display/color/server/password) and per-account HTML signature.
- Account view scoped to that account's inbox; new migrations 0006–0009.
Frontend
- Mail-list pagination, folder filters (All/Unread/Pinned), sort toggle, refresh.
- Aligned + widened mail-list margins; reading-pane bars fixed height.
- Rich-text composer: color palette, highlight, image; attachments; expand/pop-out.
- Signatures: auto-insert for new mail, replace on From change, reply insert.
- Restore/Delete actions per folder; drafts view merges local + remote, date-sorted.
