Error messages were not being put in the folder because of a problem with
how loopCatch was being handled.
It looks like this problem goes back to commit 5aea9e7.
Additional device info has been added to the error messages.
Also, now the feature is only enabled in debug mode.
getName() shows the user's name from the first identity for the account.
What we really want is getDescription(), which is the account name that
shows in the account list.
If an error occurs while connecting for push (for example, if the server's
certificate fails authentication), several more attempts will be made to
connect, then finally all attempts will cease.
This commit makes it so that pushers are restarted if the user goes in and
edits the server settings (presumably because the user was notified of a
problem and is attempting to fix it). Without this, the user could fix
the problem and would still not receive email via push.
These options originated in the AOSP email client from which K-9 Mail was
forked. They provide an odd combination of 2 features:
1. Don't bother to authenticate the server's certificate (applies to both
SSL/TLS and STARTTLS); i.e., blindly accept all certificates. This is
generally a bad security policy which is susceptible to MITM attacks.
2. If STARTTLS is selected but the server doesn't claim to support
STARTTLS, then proceed without using encryption. This, too, is a bad
security policy which is susceptible to MITM attacks.
Since the time that K-9 Mail was forked, a couple things have changed:
> K-9 Mail has implemented the ability for users to review and permanently
accept individual certificates that would otherwise fail authentication.
With this ability, there is no need for a user to subject themselves to
the ongoing risks of feature 1. above. Hence, this commit removes feature
1.
> The AOSP email client has changed its behavior and no longer permits a
security downgrade to an unencrypted connection if the server doesn't
claim to support STARTTLS (i.e., they eliminated feature 2. above). K-9
Mail should do the same. It's unlikely that a server is going to provide
STARTTLS on an intermittent basis, so providing a contingency for such
unusual behavior is an unnecessary risk. Hence, this commit removes that
feature as well.
Effect on existing users:
If the old connection security setting was "SSL/TLS (if available)" (which
now gets remapped to "SSL/TLS"), and the server does not provide a
certificate that can be authenticated, then a "Certificate error for
<account name>" notification is generated telling the user to check their
server settings. Tapping the notification takes the user to the relevant
server settings, where the user can tap "Next" to review the certificate
and choose to permanently accept it. This process would occur during the
first syncing of folders after application upgrade or (in the case of
SMTP) during the first attempt to send a message.
If the connection security setting was "STARTTLS (if available)" (which
now gets remapped to "STARTTLS"), and the server does not provide a
certificate that can be authenticated, then the same process as above
would occur.
If the old connection security setting was "STARTTLS (if available)", and
the server doesn't claim to support STARTTLS, then the user would get a
certificate error notification which would lead them to the server's
settings. There they would need to choose a different connection security
-- most likely "NONE". If they didn't change anything but instead just
tapped "Next", the server settings would be checked again and a dialog
would pop up saying, "Cannot connect to server. (STARTTLS connection
security not available)". (The implementation of notifications when
STARTTLS is not available is not actually included here -- it's in the
commit that follows.)
Regarding the changes to providers.xml: in cases where the scheme ended
with "+ssl", the schemes were simply updated by appending "+". In cases
where the scheme ended with "+tls", a check of the server was made to
assure that STARTTLS was available before appending "+" to the scheme.
Domains paran.com and nate.com failed the check and were removed because
no current information could be found. Domains me.com and mac.com also
failed and were updated based on http://support.apple.com/kb/ht4864.
Previously, if a server's certificate failed authentication while
connecting for push (if, for example, the certificate had expired), then
the attempt to connect would fail, and another attempt would be tried
later. After a certain number of failed attempts, no further attempts
would be made. Meanwhile, the user is oblivious to the failures, and it
could be quite some time before the user realizes that they are not
getting email. Even when they do realize it, they would not know the
cause.
With this commit, users receive a notification when such failures occur
while connecting for push. (These notifications are already generated
with failures while polling.) Tapping the notification will take the user
to the relevant server settings where they can choose to accept the
certificate.

If the user chooses a connection security option which assures the use of
encryption, then the PLAIN auth. option is labeled "Normal password",
otherwise it is labeled "Password, transmitted insecurely".
This is similar to Thunderbird's behavior.
The server settings for IMAP and POP3 have no such AUTOMATIC setting.
(Nor does Thunderbird have any such setting.)
The AUTOMATIC option is no longer offered to users as a choice. A
pre-existing setting will continue to be honored, but only to the extent
that it doesn't result in insecure password transmission. Users in such a
situation will get a "Failed to send some messages" notification
containing the exception text that says to update their outgoing server
authentication setting.
One of the problems with "AUTOMATIC" is that users may not fully
understand its security implications. For example, a MITM attack could
mask a server's support for STARTTLS and CRAM-MD5, resulting in password
disclosure in certain configurations.
This commit also makes changes to the SMTP authentication process. No
attempt is made to authenticate using methods that the server does not
profess to support in its EHLO response. This is the same behavior as
found in Thunderbird.
The LOGIN option is no longer offered to users as a choice. This does
*not* eliminate the SASL LOGIN authentication mechanism. Any pre-existing
LOGIN setting or any imported LOGIN setting will still be recognized. In
all cases, a user setting of either "Normal password" or "LOGIN" will
result in the SASL PLAIN mechanism being tried first if available,
otherwise SASL LOGIN will be tried if available.
This mirrors similar behavior that exists for IMAP.
AUTOMATIC = "Automatic"
PLAIN = "Normal password"
CRAM_MD5 = "Encrypted password"
SMTP also uses LOGIN. No localized text was associated with that because
a future commit will remove that option.
(The text is similar to that of Thunderbird's)
Changes:
Extract code and create login() and authCramMD5() methods.
Implement the SASL PLAIN authentication mechanism. Its primary benefit is
the explicit support for UTF-8. If the user has configured "PLAIN"
authentication, then SASL PLAIN will be used, if available, otherwise
login() will be used.
Implement POP3 APOP authentication (issue 3218). If the user has
configured "CRAM_MD5" authentication (a future commit will change this
user option to a localized string "Encrypted password"), then SASL
CRAM-MD5 will be used, if available, otherwise the availability of POP3
APOP will be checked and used (per RFC 2449, there is no APOP
"capability").
Extend getCapabilities() to check for available authentication methods by
sending the "AUTH" command with no arguments
(http://tools.ietf.org/html/draft-myers-sasl-pop3-05). This never became
a standard, but there are servers that support it, and Thunderbird
includes this check.
The SASL PLAIN and CRAM-MD5 authentication methods are not attempted
unless the server professes to have the appropriate capability.
(Previously, CRAM-MD5 was tried regardless of capability.) No check is
made for the USER capability prior to use of that method. All this is the
same behavior as in Thunderbird.
Eliminate the testing for capabilities in cases where the test results are
never used (PIPELINING, USER).
Change when getCapabilities() is called. It is called once upon
connection. If STARTTLS is negotiated (POP3 STLS), then
getCapabilities() is called again after the connection is encrypted (and
the server is authenticated), but before user authentication is attempted.
In AccountSetupCheckSettings.onCreate(Bundle), the account settings are
checked.
If an AuthenticationFailedException occurs, A dialog saying "Username or
password incorrect." pops up. We don't want to say this if the cause is
not related to an incorrect user name or password. Instead we want to say
the more generic "Cannot connect to server" which pops up for other
exception types.
This commit attempts to eliminate the use of AuthenticationFailedException
in instances where it could not be due to "Username or password
incorrect."
Previously, the user name and password were being transmitted as IMAP (RFC
3501) quoted strings.
The problem is that quoted strings are only permitted to carry 7-bit
(ASCII) data, whereas user names and passwords entered in K-9 Mail may not
be ASCII, so K-9 was violating the RFC by sending them as quoted strings.
The solution is to transmit the credentials as IMAP literal strings, which
are permitted for user names and passwords, and which permit the
transmission of 8-bit data.
This is only a partial attempt for fixing the LOGIN command for users with
non-ASCII credentials. The problem is that IMAP permits 8-bit data for
user names and passwords (if transmitted as literals), but the RFC says
nothing about the character encoding for 8-bit data. This commit encodes
them as UTF-8.
The RFC author's comments on the subject:
http://mailman2.u.washington.edu/pipermail/imap-protocol/2008-February/000822.html
Ideally, users should avoid the LOGIN command and use the SASL PLAIN
mechanism (within TLS) which explicitly permits UTF-8. (K-9 Mail always
chooses PLAIN over LOGIN, when PLAIN is available.)
CRAM-MD5 (RFC 2195) permits 8-bit data but does not identify its encoding.
Since ASCII does not permit 8-bit data, this commit changes the encoding
to UTF-8.
There is an expired Internet-Draft that proposed that the RFC be changed
to explicitly require UTF-8 encoding of user names and shared secrets.
(But then there's also an expired draft proposing that CRAM-MD5 be retired
to historic status.)
Instead of CRAM-MD5, a better option for users is the SASL PLAIN mechanism
(within TLS) which explicitly permits UTF-8.
See Issue 4492
This method made way too many assumptions about server responses and
should not have been attempting to read and parse them. That should be
left to ImapResponseParser.
Changes:
Implement the PLAIN SASL mechanism. IMAPv4rev1 assures its availability
so long as the connection is encrypted. The big advantage of PLAIN over
IMAP "LOGIN" is that PLAIN uses UTF-8 encoding for the user name and
password, whereas "LOGIN" is only safe for 7-bit US-ASCII -- the encoding
of 8-bit data is undefined.
(Note that RFC 6855 says that IMAP "LOGIN" does not support UTF-8, and
clients must use IMAP "AUTHENTICATE" to pass UTF-8 user names and
passwords.)
Honor the "LOGINDISABLED" CAPABILITY (RFC 2595) when the server declares
it. There's no sense transmitting a password in the clear when it is
known that it will be rejected.
No attempt is made to try CRAM-MD5 if the server doesn't profess to
support it in its CAPABILITY response. (This is the same behavior as
Thunderbird.)
Extract code from ImapConnection.open into new method
ImapConnection.login.
Extract code from ImapConnection.executeSimpleCommand into new method
ImapConnection.readStatusResponse.

All \r and \n codes have been replaced with <br />, so the patterns in
these replacements don't match anything.
This problem has existed for some time -- since commits 1ea27d7 and
e12dd32.
No attempt is made here to reimplement the replacements because users are
now used to the current behavior without much apparent complaint, and such
replacements are never perfect and can occasionally fail to work as
desired without additional tweaking for special cases.
There's currently a bug in linkifyText() that can lead to a
StringIndexOutOfBoundsException when the text contains a
bitcoin URI and a "web" URI near the end of the text.
The loop extracted keys from `folderMap` and then called
`folderMap.get(...)` for every key. If both the key and the value needs
to be iterated on, `Map.entrySet()` is a more efficient solution as it
doesn't require O(n) Map lookups.
Since id is a Long, Long.valueOf(long) unboxed the Long to a primitive
long, then reboxed it into a Long instance, which was again unboxed to
allow it to be set as an element of the array of longs. This commit
reduces the number of boxings from 3 to 1.
Under certain circumstances it's possible that the 'push state' isn't
updated to contain the most recent 'UIDNEXT' value. In that case
ImapFolderPusher.start() would execute the same code path through its
main loop over and over again, preventing the device from going to
sleep.
Rather than changing the code to update the 'push state' in the corner
case that triggers the behavior described above, this commit introduces
another mechanism to track the 'UIDNEXT' value. This should also catch
as of yet unknown cases where the 'push state' isn't properly updated.
At some point in the future I hope we get to a point where we only
persist the 'push state' when we manually stop/restart the service.
During normal operation there's no need to read from/write to storage
all the time.

When message viewing and tap the next icon, menu icons (previous, next, delete and replys) disappears for an instant.
But a compose icon remains, then tap it accidentally.
Eliminate the invocation of
WebSettings.setBlockNetworkImage(boolean flag),
thus maintaining the the default setting of "false".
On Android versions prior to KitKat, this setting has no
effect on inline image attachments loaded with content:
URIs. Such images would load regardless.
With KitKat, this setting does have an effect -- a
setting of "true" will block image attachments loaded
with content: URIs.
By removing this call, K-9 Mail behaves the same on KitKat
as on earlier Android versions, and the behavior on earlier
versions is unchanged.
The minSdkVersion was recently increased from 8 to 15.
WebSettings.setBlockNetworkLoads has been publicly available
since API level 8 (Froyo).
StrictMode has been publicly available since API level 9
(Gingerbread).
Also, include the sent-date in the header when using

field in various places when it should be using its originalMessage
parameter.

There were a number of preferences that were not being removed
from the preferences DB when an account was deleted, so they
would remain there forever.
There were a few attempts to remove preference keys from the DB where
the keys were obsolete and not in use for some time.
Certain obsolete preferences were not modified:
mUuid + ".name"
mUuid + ".email"
mUuid + ".signature"
mUuid + ".signatureUse"
These were in use before implementing multiple identities, and are still used
as a fallback for old accounts without multiple identities configured.
The error reporting assures an exception is thrown if
setKeyStoreFile(null) is called without a prior call to
setKeyStoreLocation(String directory).
Also, fix TrustManagerFactoryTest indentation.
Blacklist a couple of weak ciphers, bring known ones in a defined order and sort unknown
ciphers at the end. Also re-enable SSLv3 because it's still used a lot.
