When connected to a server that does not automatically send an
untagged UIDNEXT with the responses to SELECT, explicitly SEARCH for
the currently highest UID in the folder on the server and then add 1
to it to get the UIDNEXT.
searchable folders, and the various search strategies.
Integration takes precedence over searchability. The Integrated Inbox
doesn't care about folder searchability. Nor does an unread or flag
search on specific folders.
Searches on specific accounts always go for displayable folders. That
might need to change so that searches on specific accounts can be on
DISPLAYABLE or ALL, but never NEVER. But in the current approach,
account-specific searches are done from the Accounts Activity, which
has an unread counter based on displayable non-special folders, so the
present implementation is the most logical for now.
interfering with "unread" searches on POP3 accounts.
Flags really should be normalized in the database to eliminate the use
of LIKE while searching by Flags.
Pass around simple Serializable MessageReference objects containing
account UUID, folder name and message UID so that MessageView can
traverse lists of messages which span folders and accounts.
Fixes ClassCastException.
Also:
Envelope and star in Accounts Activity are now both "hot". Tapping
the main part of the search opens the full search; tapping the
envelope opens the search only for unread messages; tapping the star
opens the search but only for starred messages.
The envelope and star are a bit small to reliably tap. Both options
should be available via long-press, also.
Methodology will be extended to real accounts, as well.
Fixes Issue 1431
Present flagged message count inside a star, matching the visual
presentation on individual messages.
Provide display of unread and flagged message counts for canned
searches.
Perhaps the message counts for searches and account size display
should be defeatable for improved speed.
Computing the account size is pretty slow for big accounts, and making
this functionality optional should be considered.
Also, displays the number of flagged messages ("stars") in each
account in the Accounts list and each folder in the FolderList. Needs
better presentation of the flagged message counts, but this works as a
proof-of-concept and gets the data structures built.
Look for + as acknowledgement that we're in IDLE mode, not "idling"
string.
Also, to help with battery life:
1) Give up trying to IDLE after 10 failures.
2) Increase retry delays
Not done, yet, but available for developers to use.
Definite things to be done in the short term:
1) Allow user to hide canned searches in Accounts Activity
2) Make newly arrived mail immediately appear in search results.
Possible improvements:
3) User-definable searches
4) Make newly deleted mail immediately disappear search results.
5) Make message with flag changes immediately appear/disappear from
search results.
6) Show search result size in Accounts Activity.
