Implements new setting "Sync remote deletions" which is checked by
default. When unchecked, K-9 Mail will no longer remove messages from
local storage just because the message was removed from the server.
This functionality works for all account types. Messages will still
be removed from the local store in order to stay within the limit
imposed by the "Number of messages to display" setting.

Issue 300: Handle incoming IMAP tokens in a case-insensitive manner
Issue 772: Add Yahoo workaround
Issue 852: Add configurable IMAP IDLE refresh frequency in Incoming
server settings
Also:
Add configuration option for whether push system executes a poll on
each connect.
Move the configuration for the maximum number of push folders to the
Incoming server Settings.
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.
Allow user to turn off gesture-based control.
Also, consolidate so that gestures could be used by other subclasses
of K9Activity. Probably should be made usable to K9ListActivity, too,
by making MyGestureDetector its own class and make it used by
K9Activity and K9ListActivity, and have the Activities implement a
callback interface for onNext and onPrevious.
Provides for the user to elect to have certain folders displayed first
in the FolderList. Folders so elected are displayed in alphabetical
order first, then folders not so elected are displayed alphabetical
order.
No special handling is done for Inbox any more, except that it is in
"top group" by default, to preserve current behavior until the user
changes the settings.
* Add an explicit configuration option for stars
* Replace now-outdated "left handed" widgets config option, now that
select widgets are always on the left.
* since the multi-modality of the message list was now only a "toggle
stars" option, kill that, as it was lots of code and rather redundant
global config option rather than a per-account one. (But with a new
implementation.) - As we now have views that show messages across
accounts, this needed to become a global)
push technology. This provide a layer of safety in case of
misconfiguration (accidentally setting too many folders to push using
classes), which can bog down the device till it is unusable. On a G1,
25 folders is a very large load. Fixes Issue 871.
Also, move some pending commands to the background to make way for
more important user interface activity.
On each IMAP account, the expunge behavior can be set to expunge
messages in a folder as soon as a move or delete is performed on the
folder ("immediately"), each time the folder is polled, or only when
executed manually.
In the Message List, there is now an Expunge action in the option
menu.
In the Folder List, there is now an Expunge action in the context
menu (long-press on the folder).
For IMAP accounts, it is also possible to disable the copying of deleted messages to the
Trash folder, by setting the Trash folder to -NONE-.
Fixes Issue 536.
Separately, in WebDAV accounts, the user can now choose the
server-side equivalents of the special folders, just like for IMAP.
Make our use of email/mail consistent. It's "mail" except for "Email address"
Rephrase a number of unclear or oddly phrased messages (many dating from AOSP)
Fixes Issue 577
K-9 has earned its Canine Good Citizen.
K-9 now respects the Android-global Background data preference, by
default. However, there is an override, allowing K-9 to ignore the
global preference, by either always running around and synchronizing
in the background, or staying put and not synchronizing.
A user can now elect to turn off mail synchronization across all
accounts in either the K-9 Preferences page by setting Background
synchronization to Never, or leaving that value as "When 'Background
data' is checked" and deselecting the Android-global Background data
preference.
