8 hoursbuild: add a SlackBuild under assets/slackbuildDanilo M.1-0/+23
Packages the application for Slackware, following SBo conventions with two deliberate departures: the tag is _danix rather than _SBo and the package type is txz rather than tgz, since this is not an SBo submission. sbolint reports exactly those two as errors and nothing else; the template comments it warned about are gone. Written against the install layout the build really produces, checked by staging it: one binary, one .desktop entry and one scalable icon, no libraries and no man or info pages. The template's .la removal, man and info compression and perllocal.pod cleanup would all act on nothing here, so they are left out rather than carried along as dead code. doinst.sh keeps only the desktop-database and icon-cache updates. The download URL and checksum are verified rather than assumed: sbodl fetches the tarball and reports "md5sum matches OK". Adds QTMAILDIR_BUILD_TESTS, defaulting to ON so the ordinary build is unchanged. A packaging build has no use for the test binaries, and building them pulls in Qt6::Test to produce nothing that ships. Note the 0.4.0 tarball predates this option, so with that source the flag is accepted but does nothing; the README says so. notmuch is the only dependency outside Slackware. Qt6 including WebEngine, gmime and cmake are all stock, which is what REQUIRES reflects. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5 <noreply@anthropic.com>

9 hoursfeat: choose the startup query by namefeature/ui-state-persistenceDanilo M.1-1/+6
The app opened whichever saved query sorted first alphabetically, which is not a choice anyone made: [queries] is read through childKeys(), so savedQueries().first() means "Flagged" before "Inbox" before "Unread" rather than anything the user expressed. [general] startup_query names the entry to open and defaults to Unread, so a fresh install comes up on the unified unread list. Saved-query button order is untouched and stays alphabetical. A name matching no saved query falls back to the first one rather than starting with an empty view. That is reported as a problem only when the user actually wrote the name; the built-in default naming a query they never created is not something they got wrong, and warning about it would fire on every launch of a config that has no Unread entry.

9 hoursfeat: own the message-pane zoom and persist itDanilo M.1-0/+4
Zoom was Chromium's, not the application's: the web view handled the keys natively and never told anyone, so there was no value to save. qtmaildir now owns it. Zoom in, out and reset are real actions, in the View menu and rebindable through [keys], and the factor is persisted to the UI state file. Ctrl+wheel over the body zooms and Ctrl+middle-click resets, both filtered by ancestry from an application-level filter: the events are delivered to an internal QQuickWidget the web view creates lazily, so a filter on the view itself never sees them. The factor is clamped to 0.5 - 3.0, and NaN, infinity, zero and negative values fall back to 1.0, since a corrupt state file must not be able to leave the pane unreadable with no visible way back. Both risks the plan flagged turned out not to exist, verified by probe rather than assumed. The application QAction wins over the web view's native zoom key, so the tracked factor cannot diverge from what is on screen. And the factor survives setHtml(), so the web view is the single source of truth and needs no reapply per render. A third finding is worth recording because it produced a wrong fix first. A probe using QTest::keyClick() reported Ctrl++ as a dead binding, and a test was written asserting that. Both were wrong: Ctrl++ is exactly what the '+' key emits on an Italian layout, confirmed against the real keyboard, and it is the shipped default. Whether a symbol needs Shift is a property of the layout, not of Qt, and keyClick() reproduces neither. The test now only checks that every default parses, and the comment in defaultBindings() says not to re-derive this from synthetic input. Ctrl+= is a second binding for reset, skipped when [keys] gives it to something else. Also fixes a pre-existing bug the new config key exposed. [general] entries were read as "general/<key>", which matches nothing: QSettings' INI backend treats a section literally named [general] as its own fallback section and strips the prefix. notmuch_config had therefore never worked. Both keys are now read without it; the file format is unchanged. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5 <noreply@anthropic.com>
10 hoursfeat: use the application iconfeature/qaction-menusDanilo M.1-0/+35
The icon was committed in a previous session and referenced nowhere: no qrc, no .desktop entry, no setWindowIcon. It is wired up now, as a window icon, a desktop entry, and install rules placing both into hicolor and share/applications. resources.qrc belongs to the executable rather than to qtmaildir_lib. A qrc compiled into a static library registers itself from a global initialiser, and the linker discards that object because nothing references it: the build succeeded, qInitResources_resources() was present in the .a, and QFile::exists(":/icons/qtmaildir.svg") still returned false at runtime. Verified loading at 16, 32 and 64 pixels after the move. Toolbar and menu actions take icons from the system theme by their standard names, so they match the rest of the desktop rather than shipping bespoke art. A theme lacking one leaves that action as text, which still works.
11 hoursfeat: add menus, a toolbar and a shortcut referenceDanilo M.1-24/+31
Actions were a QHash of std::function dispatched by an event filter, which nothing could put in a menu. They are QActions now, bound from KeyMap so a [keys] override reaches the menus as well as the keyboard. Menu bar covers every action; the toolbar carries only Sync, Archive, Delete and Undo. Help > Keyboard shortcuts is generated from the actions, so it shows what the keys really do rather than a copy that drifts. spam and load_remote gained defaults, having been unreachable without a hand-written binding. The event filter is gone. Probing showed QAction shortcuts are dispatched before the focused widget sees the key, so they beat QAbstractItemView's type-to-search without one, and Qt already suppresses plain-letter shortcuts while an editable widget has focus. Dropping the filter's blanket guard also lets Ctrl+Q work while the query bar has focus. registeredActionNames() is derived from the actions rather than hand-maintained, so the two drift tests it needed are replaced by checks that a configured binding reaches its action. No confirmation dialogs: tag mutations still answer to undo.
15 hoursdocs: add README, changelog and release procedurev0.1.0Danilo M.1-0/+198
README covers what the project deliberately does not do (no POP, IMAP or SMTP, no send in v1, no confirmation dialogs), the verified dependency versions, build and test commands, the full config format with the reasons behind its two surprises, the keybinding table, and the security posture of the message view. Two facts in it were checked rather than assumed: the `spam` and `load_remote` actions are registered but have no default binding, so they are documented as unreachable until bound; and the attachment path guard does exist as described. The Release build was also verified to pass all 11 test binaries, which matters because Q_ASSERT compiles out there and one of the cid: invariants leans on an assertion in debug. CHANGELOG.md follows Keep a Changelog and records 0.1.0 along with the current known limitations. docs/RELEASING.md records what semver means for a mail client (the config format and action names are the public interface) and the steps, including that the version is bumped in exactly one place.
