Attachments in the reading pane are tiles with a preview: images and a PDF's
first page, rendered on the server (Pillow, pypdfium2) as WebP of at most
480 px, cached beside the blob store and in the browser. Tiles are all one
size — at most 230 px wide, narrower so three still fit in a row — and frame
each preview by its shape: close to the tile's it fills it, very tall / wide /
square ones show whole over a blurred copy, small ones are not enlarged, PDFs
show the top of the page. The name bar (checkbox, type, name, size, download)
slides in on hover and adapts to the tile's width; files without a preview
get a large type icon. Previews of opened conversations are kept offline.
Forward now carries the original's attachments: new compose attachments
sharing the stored blobs (POST /messages/{id}/forward-attachments).
Mailbox display / Settings → Appearance: "Show a dividing line between
rows" (off by default, per device), with a new switch. Settings drop the
"On a phone…" note, and "Language" reads "Spellchecking language".

An opt-in per device (Settings → Security → Offline access) installs a
service worker that keeps the newest 50 Inbox conversations, and the ones
opened recently, for reading when the server cannot be reached. While
online everything still comes from the server; the saved copy is only the
fallback, marked X-WM-Offline so the app knows it is offline.
Offline, an amber cloud next to the theme toggle says so and when mail was
last saved; actions that need the server are greyed out and say "Not
available offline"; conversations and folders not saved here are faded or
say so. A probe notices the server coming back, shows "Back online" and
refreshes everything. Saved mail is wiped on sign-out, on any 401, and when
another user signs in. nginx never caches /sw.js, so releases reach it.

A self-hosted LanguageTool (dev: docker/docker-compose.yml, started by
`make up`) checks what the user writes in the compose window, through
POST /api/spellcheck — the browser never talks to the engine directly.
- Marks are CSS highlights over the text, never written into the message: red
wavy for spelling, blue for grammar/style. Clicking one shows the message,
up to five suggestions (applied as typed, so Ctrl+Z undoes them) and Ignore.
The popup, like the link popup, opens above its anchor when there is no
room below.
- Checked after a pause in typing; the signature and quoted original are
skipped; marks on words just edited drop at once; a check overtaken by a
newer one, by turning checking off, or by closing the window is discarded.
- With "auto", text is checked in chunks of lines, each in its own detected
language — LanguageTool settles on one language per request, so a mixed
Polish/English message had every English word flagged as a Polish typo.
- Settings > Appearance: on/off and language (Auto-detect or any of the
engine's languages); the compose window's More menu overrides it for one
message. The browser's own spellcheck steps aside while ours runs, and comes
back when it is off or the server has no engine (503 from the endpoint).

Clicking a link in the message shows "Open the link: <URL> | Edit | Delete"
just below it. Open opens http(s)/mailto links in a new tab (a pasted
javascript: link is shown but never run); Edit swaps in an inline URL field;
Delete removes the link and keeps its words. Click elsewhere, Escape or
typing closes it — and Escape stops there instead of also minimising the
compose window.
The toolbar's link button uses the same floating field instead of the
browser's prompt: under the selected text (kept highlighted with a CSS
highlight while the field has focus), at the caret with the address as the
text, or — with the caret inside a link — editing that link rather than
nesting a new one. A bare "example.com" becomes https://example.com.

A reply or forward now opens with the quote hidden, as the reading pane
shows it; the pill toggles it. The pill lives in the editor but is stripped
from everything reported out, and the quote is hidden by a class on the
editor rather than in its markup, so drafts and sent mail carry the full
quote. Only a quote the pill directly precedes is hidden, so deleting the
pill cannot strand it.

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.

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).
