If you attempted to use SSL to connect to a server that speaks
STARTTLS, you should get an SSL protocol error. Instead, you
were likely to get an "Unrecognized Certificate" error that shows
you an unrelated certificate chain and asks you to accept it or
reject it. Neither action would work because the actual problem
had nothing to do with certificates. The unrelated certificate
chain that popped up had been statically stored when validating
a prior connection to a different server.
With this patch, certificate chains are no longer stored statically
when validating server connections.
Issue 5886 is an example of a user experiencing this problem.
Previously the app crashed when upgrading the database failed. Now we
reset the database version and run the upgrade code again (recreating
all tables).
This reverts commit bbdec62e37.
Aside from being the incorrect solution for fixing the problem
described in pull request 211, the patch generates 'Dead code'
warnings inside the if(){} statements on lines 46 and 47.
The correct fix for the problem was already implemented in commit
5678786c97.
Although the logcat in the pull request was generated after the fix,
line numbers in the log indicate that it was based on an outdated
version of MimeUtility.java from before the fix.
This requires another database schema change. With this change messages
at the root of a thread reference themselves in the 'threads' table,
i.e. 'root' contains the value of 'id' for these messages. It makes
selecting all messages in a thread much simpler.
Previously, <html>, <head>, & <body> tags were
attached to messages before they were stored locally.
But now that the <head> element also needs to include
a <meta> element (for proper MessageWebView display),
it seems unecesary to store all these tags with each
message.
Now the tags are no longer stored with the messages. Instead,
MessageWebView applies the tags before displaying the message.
This also eliminates the need to upgrade an older
message database where all the old messages would have
otherwise needed to be wrapped with the new tags.
Database updates can be surprisingly slow. This lead to slow updates of
the user interface which in turn made working with K-9 Mail not as fun
as it should be. This commit hopefully changes that.
The commit that introduced those notifications also introduced a rather
... interesting design pattern: The CertificateValidationException
notified the user of its pure existance - it's no longer a 'message'
only, but defines policy. As this is more than unusual, replace this
pattern by the MessagingController treating
CertificateValidationException specially when accessing remote folders.
Also make clear which account failed when constructing the notification.
With this fix, a CertPathValidatorException or CertificateException will
create a "Certificate error: Check your server settings" notification
in the status bar. When the user clicks on the notification, they are
taken to the appropriate server settings screen where they can review their
settings and can accept a different server certificate.
LocalMessage already has a content preview in it; reuse that.
Remove unneeded MimeMessage#getPreview() method now that we don't need
to generate a preview anymore.
