[compose] signature and signature_position, and a per-account signature
that OVERRIDES the former. The account seeds the choice rather than owning
it: the composer's switch keeps every signature reachable whichever account
is selected, which is what keeps the note's "not tied to an account"
constraint intact.
The fallback is deliberately NOT resolved here. An account with no key of
its own carries an empty string, so the composer can tell "says nothing"
from "says none" and fall through itself.
signature_position follows quote_position's shape exactly, reporting a
present-but-malformed value rather than accepting it silently.
Part of item 152.

Item 94. The query row is the six built-in filters (Unread, Inbox,
Important, Sent, Drafts, Trash), which compose with the account
dropdown, and every saved query lives in the More queries menu. Nothing
has to decide which of the user's queries get button space, which is the
question item 93 would otherwise have had to answer.
SavedQuery::pinned is gone from the struct, the reader, the writer, the
save dialog's checkbox and the pin/unpin context action.
The stored key is stripped rather than left ignored, at the user's
choice. That has one non-obvious requirement: `pinned` stays named in
loadSavedQueries' `known` list precisely so it is NOT collected as an
unknown field, since those are preserved and written straight back. A
mutation removing that name puts the key in the file for ever.
Confirmed with the user before starting that the built-in set covers
their use, since removing pinning removes the escape hatch this item was
blocked on.
Tests: four pinning tests replaced by two on the new rule, four more
converted from buttons to menu entries. migrationPinsEveryEntry and
aStoredGeneratedQueryIsUnpinnedNotDropped are rewritten around the
property that outlived the flag rather than deleted: an entry must be
KEPT, which is what both assertions were really guarding.

The previous commit fixed the cursor within each quote_position branch and
the user still saw the old layout, because the branches were already right:
what was wrong was the DEFAULT. quote_position shipped as `above`, and the
layout asked for is exactly what `below` already produced, a blank line at
the top with the quote underneath.
So the default flips, along with the fallback for a malformed value and the
warning naming it. Nothing needs an Upgrading note: compose has not been
released, so no config in the wild sets this.
Focus goes to the body whenever To: is already filled, which a Reply and a
Forward always are. The form's first widget took it otherwise, so the user
had to click into the editor before typing. A New message keeps the default,
since an empty To: is genuinely the first thing to fill in.
The focus test asserts on the window's focusWidget() rather than on
QWidget::hasFocus(): an unshown window is never active, so hasFocus() reads
false whatever the code does and would fail against a correct fix. Both
directions are mutation-checked, since focusing unconditionally passes the
reply case while breaking the new-message one.

An account's ability to send IS its send_command's presence. Not a separate
receive_only key: with one key there is nothing to keep in step and nothing
to contradict, and a receive-only account is expressed by omission, which is
how one real account here is meant to work.
Startup validation follows the startup_query pattern, and is deliberately
asymmetric. A default_account that cannot send is warned about, because the
user named an account and expects mail to come from it. An installation
where NO account can send is not: that is a valid read-only installation,
and warning about it would train the user to ignore warnings.
Every [compose] key reads through value(key, default) rather than testing
contains(), because send_delay_ms = 0 is a real setting meaning 'send at
once' that a zero-test would mistake for unset.

Task 6. Delete moved mail into the trash and the only ways back out were a
second press of Delete or Ctrl+Z, both of which act on a row the user has
to have deleted in this session. Browsing the trash and putting something
back needed an action of its own.
`restore` is enabled from the QUERY, not from the selection's tags. The
trash view is path-based precisely so that mail trashed by another client
appears in it, and such a message carries no tag of ours: deciding from
`tag:deleted` would disable Restore on exactly the messages that most need
it. isShowingTrash() compares the current query against the trash
generator's own, for both the per-account and the all-accounts scope, so it
follows the account dropdown like every other filter.
A message with NO origin tag is the foreign-trashed case, and it is why
this is not simply restoreSelected() under a new name. The two callers want
opposite things from a missing origin, which `fallbackToInbox` selects.
From the trash view the message is demonstrably in the trash and refusing
to move it leaves the user looking at mail they cannot get out, so it goes
to the inbox and the status bar says so. From a second press of Delete the
message is not in the trash at all and merely wears a stale `deleted` tag
from an older version or a hand-written notmuch command; moving that to the
inbox would relocate mail the user never asked to move, so the tag comes
off and the file stays put.
The inbox FOLDER is a new optional per-account `inbox` key, defaulting to
"Inbox". It is configurable rather than hardcoded because the name is not
ours to assume: naming a folder that does not exist CREATES it, beside the
real one, and under mbsync's `Create Both` that folder reaches the mail
server. That is not hypothetical, it is what a truncated origin folder did
to real mail while this branch was being tested. Unlike `trash` the key is
optional, since the default is right for any ordinary Maildir and a wrong
value here only affects the fallback.
Ctrl+R, which was free. The action is only enabled in the trash view, so
the key is inert elsewhere rather than doing something surprising. It sits
in the Message menu beside Delete and in the thread context menu, greyed
outside the trash rather than hidden: an action that vanishes teaches
nothing, while a disabled entry with its shortcut beside it says both that
it exists and where it applies.
**Adding an action is FIVE places, not four.** knownActions(),
defaultBindings() and the icon table are each enforced by a test that fails
loudly, and being REACHABLE is a fifth that nothing checked: this shipped
registered, bound, iconned, correctly enabled, and present in no menu at
all, which a green suite reported as complete. Ctrl+R is not a shortcut
anyone guesses, so it was effectively invisible.
restoreIsReachableWithoutTheKeyboard() closes that, and deliberately
excludes the context menu from its menu-bar assertion, since findChildren
returns both and one check would otherwise satisfy the other.
Four tests, each mutation-checked. Two worth keeping: the hardcoded "Inbox"
mutation fails against the fixture's lowercase folders exactly as it would
against a Maildir that spells its inbox differently, and the reachability
mutation reproduces the keyboard-only state this shipped in.

Adds trash as a fifth built-in query filter beside Unread, Inbox,
Important and Sent, composing per-account exactly as Sent does:
Config::resolvedQuery() asks each account for its own trashQuery()
rather than wrapping the all-accounts union, and an account with no
trash folder resolves to matchNothingQuery() rather than "match
everything".
Also gives the Trash button a toolbar icon (user-trash) and a trash
key to the mainwindow fixture that asserts every filter button carries
one; without it the button is skipped from the row entirely (no
account configured a trash folder), and the existing icon test found
no button to check.

The interface language followed the environment and nothing else, so
choosing it meant setting LANG for the whole application. [general]
language overrides it in both directions: it selects Italian on an English
desktop, and en_US forces English on an Italian one.
A short code or a full locale name both work, since Qt resolves "it" to
it_IT when the QLocale is built and QTranslator::load falls back from
qtmaildir_it_IT to qtmaildir_it. "system" is the default written down, so
the default can be expressed rather than only reached by deleting the key.
Validated on the locale NAME rather than on whether a translation loads,
because those are different questions and only one is an error. QLocale
accepts any string and degrades an unrecognised one to C rather than
failing, so `language = itallian` loads no translation and is otherwise
indistinguishable from asking for English on purpose; meanwhile
`language = en_US` legitimately loads nothing, English being the source
language and shipping no .qm. Checking the name separates the typo from
the deliberate choice, and the typo is reported.
The translator is now installed after Config is loaded, since the config
is what chooses it. The cost is that config warnings are generated before
the translator exists and are therefore built in English; retranslating
them would mean re-running load(), and a warning about the config file is
the one string a user can still act on in either language.
Verified against the real loader across six configurations, under both
LANG=en_US and LANG=it_IT: short and full codes select Italian, system and
an absent key follow the environment, en_US forces English whatever the
environment says, and a bad name reports a problem and falls back. Two
mutations checked: dropping the name validation and treating "system" as a
locale name each fail a test.

Answers "start me in work - Inbox rather than All accounts - Inbox". The key
names an account by its [account.<key>] suffix and the dropdown is set to it
before the startup query runs; because a built-in filter composes with the
dropdown, that is the whole mechanism and the key never reaches a query
builder. Validated on load: a name matching no account is reported and cleared,
since the dropdown has no entry for it and would sit on All accounts without
saying why.
Which side applies the scope depends on what the startup entry is, and getting
it wrong is silent in both directions. A generated filter comes back from
resolvedQuery() already scoped, so letting runQuery() apply the dropdown again
gives path:"work/**" and (path:"work/**" and (tag:inbox)). A saved query does
not, because resolvedQuery() ignores the account key for one, so claiming it
was already scoped leaves it unscoped with the dropdown pointing at Work.
The first of those shipped in this session's working tree and passed its test,
because the assertion used contains() and the double-scoped string contains the
scope too. It asserts the exact query now. The second was found by writing the
test for the case rather than by reading, and is covered by
aStartupAccountAlsoScopesASavedStartupQuery.
The README's startup_query documentation was wrong on two counts after the
previous commit: the fallback is the Unread filter rather than the first query
in the file, and the name can now match a built-in filter.

Item 93, the Config half. Four built-in filters, Unread, Inbox, Flagged and
Sent, as generated entries in kQueryGenerators, which was already a closed set
validated on load for Sent alone.
resolvedQuery() gains an overload taking an account key, and that is what makes
a filter compose with the account dropdown instead of fighting it. A generator
is asked for the account's OWN query rather than having its all-accounts query
wrapped in a scope: wrapping gives
path:"a/**" and (path:"a/Sent/**" or path:"b/Sent/**")
which returns the right rows only because path: is hierarchical, so a row-count
test passes against it. The tests assert on the query string for that reason,
and the mutation putting the wrap back fails two of them.
An ordinary saved query ignores the account key and keeps resolving through its
own stored account, which is the behaviour item 90 leaves alone.
matchNothingQuery() exists because an empty query means "match everything" to
notmuch: an account configuring no sent folder would otherwise give a button
labelled Sent that shows the entire Maildir.
Config gains Q_DECLARE_TR_FUNCTIONS for the filter names, which are button
labels. The generator names are not translated: they are matched against the
closed set and stored in queries.json, so translating them would make a file
written in one locale unreadable in another.
No UI yet, and no migration: the query row still builds from pinned saved
queries.
|
|
The user asked whether the default queries could be unified with Sent. The
answer runs the other way: Sent joins the saved queries rather than the saved
queries becoming hardcoded.
Inbox, Unread and Important are complete strings that depend on nothing and can
never go stale, so generating them would buy nothing and would cost the four
things the file just gained: reordering, unpinning, renaming and deleting.
Hardcoding them would also make them undeletable, which is a regression for
anyone who does not want one of them.
Sent is different only in that its query CANNOT be stored: it is composed from
every account's `sent` key, so a stored copy goes stale the moment a folder is
renamed. That is a property of Sent, not of "default queries". Storing the
GENERATOR rather than its output keeps both halves: `"generated": "sent"` still
resolves from the accounts at click time, and the entry is an ordinary row that
can be reordered, renamed, unpinned or removed. The row now follows one rule
instead of carrying one member the user did not own.
Two properties had to travel with the entry. The composed query, resolved
through Config::resolvedQuery() so what lands in the bar is what actually ran;
and FLAT mode, since a sent view lists messages and a threaded one folds every
reply back into the conversation the user sent one message into. The sent
generator implies flat rather than trusting the file to say so, because a
hand-edited row would otherwise produce a threaded sent view.
An unknown generator is reported but the row is KEPT: a later build may know it,
and dropping it here would delete it from the file on the next save, which is
the same data loss the unknown-field handling exists to prevent. A generator
whose accounts configure nothing is skipped entirely, exactly as the hardcoded
button was hidden rather than offering one that finds nothing.
Eight new tests. The four pre-existing Sent tests reach this through migration
and were left alone, which is what proves the migrated path still behaves; the
new ones cover a STORED file, which is the path every launch after the first
takes. Mutations: a generator resolving to nothing fails three, ignoring flat
fails two, and not skipping an empty generator fails one. A rename test guards
the property the change exists for, since anything keyed on the literal name
"Sent" would break it.

First half of item 23. The storage moves out of the [queries] INI section into
~/.config/qtmaildir/queries.json; the UI that writes it comes next.
The INI could not express order. QSettings reads a section through childKeys(),
which sorts alphabetically and never follows the file, so the saved-query
buttons could not be arranged and config.cpp carried a comment saying a
hand-rolled parser would be needed to change that. queries.json is an ordered
array and nothing sorts it on load. That also makes room for the two fields the
save dialog needs: pinned, which decides whether a query is a button or a menu
entry, and account, which scopes it.
account stores the account KEY, not the maildir path, so it does not duplicate
config that already lives in the account section and go stale when the user
edits it. Config::resolvedQuery() composes through Account::scopedQuery(), whose
parentheses are load-bearing: path:... and a or b binds as (path:... and a) or
b, so an unparenthesised disjunction escapes its scope and matches every
account. A key naming an account that no longer exists resolves to the bare
query rather than a scope built from an empty maildir, which would be path:"/**"
and match everything.
Migration reads [queries] once, when queries.json is absent, marks every entry
pinned so the query row does not empty on the first launch after an upgrade, and
leaves the INI section untouched. Stripping it would mean rewriting a
hand-edited file with QSettings, which drops comments and key order across the
whole file.
The format follows rules.json in shape only: a version and unknown fields
preserved at both levels, so a file written by a later build survives a save
from this one. None of its two-implementation machinery is here, because queries
have exactly one reader; the version constant says so where a future reader will
look. A file whose version this build does not know is refused AND blocks the
save, so a newer document is never overwritten with a lossy reading of itself.
Twelve tests, each checked against a mutation that puts the corresponding bug
back: sorting on load fails three of them, stripping the INI section after
migration fails the byte-identical assertion, concatenating the scope without
parentheses fails the disjunction test, and dropping unknown-field preservation
fails the round trip. The migration test compares the INI file's BYTES rather
than re-reading it through QSettings, which would have passed against a rewrite
that kept every value while dropping the comments.
startup_query still resolves by name, but its fallback now returns the first
entry in the user's own order rather than the alphabetically first one. That is
user-visible for a config whose startup_query matches nothing.

Item 71. A tag edit reached the notmuch index at edit time and then sat there
until the user clicked Sync or their cron job fired, so "mark all read" updated
the view while the change itself waited, sometimes for ten minutes.
A confirmed edit now arms a debounce that runs the existing sync path. The delay
is auto_sync_delay_ms in [general], defaulting to 2000, and follows
mark_read_delay_ms exactly, including that zero and negative are not errors:
zero syncs on the next trip through the event loop, and any negative value
disables the behaviour, which is the switch for a user who wants only their cron
job.
It is armed from onTagsApplied, where a write is confirmed and the pending count
is already current, rather than where one is sent: a sync scheduled for a write
the worker went on to reject would run for nothing. A debounce rather than a
schedule, restarted by each edit, because "mark all read" confirms one write per
thread in the view and an arm-per-edit timer would be the storm of syncs the
debounce exists to prevent. Nothing is armed when no sync command is configured
or when the pending count is zero, the case where an edit was netted against its
own inverse. When the timer fires with a sync already running, local or cron, it
skips rather than queues: mbsync's own answer to a second run is to fail on it,
and the edits stay pending rather than being lost.
Also fixes a pane blanked out from under the reader, found by hand testing this
feature. onSyncFinished called runCurrentQuery() where the cron path calls
refreshCurrentQuery(), and a re-run clears the model, the undo stack and the
message pane. The stale-thread notice handles a thread that stops matching the
query and has since item 35, but a re-run left nothing for it to describe. The
two paths had no reason to differ; before this item a local sync only followed a
click on Sync, so the difference went unnoticed. Reading a message in the Unread
view, having it marked read, and watching the pane go blank two seconds later is
what surfaced it.
Its test asserts on the undo stack rather than the pane: both paths issue a
queued query test_mainwindow has no worker to answer, so the pane ends up blank
either way and an assertion on it would pass against both, while the undo stack
is cleared by one and kept by the other.
Nine tests, four in test_config and five in test_mainwindow, each
mutation-checked: removing the schedule call, honouring a negative delay,
dropping the nothing-pending guard, dropping the already-running guard, and
restoring runCurrentQuery() each fail a test.

Item 67. The pane counted unread, flagged and inbox from three fixed
tag: queries. Sent and drafts cannot join that list as tags: tag:draft
counts 0 against a real database and no draft-ish tag exists in it at
all, so a tag-based line would be a permanent zero that reads as working
code. Both are composed from each account's folder keys instead, the
same way the Sent view already composes its query.
The drafts key was parsed and documented as unused in v1. Composing
drafts is still v2; counting them is not, so Account::draftsQuery() and
Config::allDraftsQuery() now mirror the sent pair. The shared body moved
into folderQuery() and joinAccountQueries(), so the load-bearing quoting
(a provider nests both folders under a bracketed parent, and [ and ] are
Xapian syntax) and the bare-"or" guard exist once rather than once per
folder type.
The fixed array is gone rather than extended. It held queries and labels
in two lists indexed in parallel, which is a hazard that grows with the
list: an entry inserted in one and not the other prints a real number
against the wrong name and looks entirely plausible. placeholderLines()
carries each query beside the callable that labels it, so the two cannot
drift, and the count reply stays paired by position as the worker
requires.
A line is omitted when no account configures that folder rather than
shown as 0, following item 63: a missing folder is a real configuration,
and "0 sent" claims the user has sent nothing.
Measured against the real config: 4 sent terms over 601 threads, 5
drafts terms over 3, the extra drafts term coming from the one account
that configures drafts and no sent, which is what proves the two are
collected independently.
Four tests here and four in test_config, mutation-checked at three
points: dropping the drafts line, an off-by-one in the label pairing,
and removing the -1 guard for an uncountable query. Each mutation fails
a test.

Adds a `sent` key to [account.*] naming that account's sent folder, and a
Sent button beside the saved queries that composes its query from every
account carrying one. An account without the key is omitted silently, as a
real account may keep no sent mail locally. With no account selected the
button spans all of them; selecting one narrows it through the existing
scope wrap rather than a second path.
Composed at run time rather than shipped as a [queries] entry. A saved query
is one fixed string: it cannot narrow to the selected account, and it goes
stale the moment an account is added or a provider renames a folder.
The design and the measurements behind it are in
docs/superpowers/specs/2026-08-11-sent-mail-design.md. Three things there are
worth repeating here.
The composed path is QUOTED, and that is load-bearing. A real provider nests
its sent folder under a bracketed parent, and "[" and "]" are Xapian syntax:
unquoted, the query parses rather than matches and returns nothing while
looking entirely plausible. Composition happens in one place so there is one
chance to get it right, and a bracketed path is pinned in a test.
Recipients are opt-in per query, which is a performance contract rather than
a preference. notmuch_message_get_header(m, "To") is not served from the
index, it reads the message file: folding every thread of a 4411-thread
inbox took 38.2 seconds against 251 ms for the 601-thread sent view. The
worker skips the walk entirely unless asked, and the refresh path carries the
same flag so a background sync cannot blank the column mid-read. Always
folding is mutation-tested: the data would be right and only the cost wrong,
which nothing else here would notice.
The messages reached through the thread are owned by it and freed with it, so
recipientsOf() holds them raw and finishes while the thread is alive, exactly
as walkReplies does. An NmMessage wrapper there is a double-free.
Sent mail is presented flat, and the pane follows. A message you sent
otherwise drags in the replies you received, so a view labelled Sent shows
conversations rather than what you sent. ThreadListModel::setFlatMode() makes
hasChildren() and ReplyCountRole answer differently and changes nothing else;
runQuery() sets it on EVERY run, so any other query restores the tree on its
way through and the flag cannot outlive the button that set it. The pane
needed its own fix for the same reason: the single-message path depends on a
field only filled when a thread is expanded, which never happens in a flat
list, so loadThread() gained matchedOnly and drops the messages that did not
match instead of rendering them as stubs.
Recipients replace the sender through the existing SendersRole rather than a
new one, so the delegate needs no branch and cannot disagree with the model
about which name a row shows. It falls back to the sender when a To header is
absent or unparseable, since a blank where a name belongs reads as a
rendering fault.
Address parsing uses GMime: a display name may contain a comma, so
"Rossi, Mario" <m@example.org>, info@example.net is two addresses and
splitting reports three. internet_address_list_parse returns NULL for an
empty string, which is a crash if unguarded.
Backlog item 63.

Adds [general] date_format, a QDateTime pattern for the date a thread card
shows. Absent or empty means the system locale's short format, which is what
every other application on the desktop uses and stays the default.
The format reaches the LAYOUT, not only the painter. CardLayout::compute()
reserves the date's width from widestDateSample(), so a pattern that arrived
only at the drawText call would be elided into a rect sized for the old
format, which is the clipping the bold-font fault already produced once. It
rides on CardLayout::Input and defaults to an empty string, leaving every
existing call site unchanged. Confirmed by mutation: making the width ignore
the format fails the test.
widestDateSample() memoised its result in a static, which would have sized
every format after the first from whichever arrived first. It is a plain call
now, costing one QLocale lookup per row, the same as formatting the date.
Validation rejects only a pattern whose output is CONSTANT, found by
formatting two different instants and comparing. QDateTime::toString() treats
nearly every letter as a field, so "banana" formats as "bpmnpmnpm" and
"hello" as "22ello": nonsense, but they vary with the instant, and a check
claiming to find "no date field" cannot reject them. What harms the user is
the pattern that prints the same text on every card, and that is what is
refused, with the value named in the message.
The model supplies the pattern through DateFormatRole for the same reason it
supplies the tag colours: it is the one object here holding config, and a
delegate reading config itself would be a second source of truth.
Backlog item 62.

Follow-up to item 56. With the toolbar now following the desktop's
button style, an "icon only" desktop makes the icon the whole control,
and this style reports PM_ToolBarIconSize as 16px, which is a small
target for a button with no text beside it.
A [general] toolbar_icon_size key, 16 to 64, defaulting to 24 rather
than to the style's own metric. Setting it to 16 restores the theme's
value.
Clamped and reported, unlike message_zoom, which documents a 0.5 to 3.0
range in the README and enforces none of it. Both ends here break the
UI that would be used to fix them: too small is an invisible icon, too
large is a toolbar taller than the window.
The unenforced message_zoom range is recorded as item 58 rather than
fixed here, since it is a separate defect that predates this change.
Also documents in the README that saved-query button labels are the key
names from the user's own [queries] section, which is why the "Flagged"
button still read that way after the action was renamed: it is a user's
query name, not a string this code owns. The sample config now shows
`Important = tag:flagged` to teach the wording the UI uses.

Item 54. A sync fired by the user's cron carries tag edits to the mail
store exactly as a local one does, but only onSyncFinished() cleared the
pending state, so the indicator kept reporting work that had already
shipped and the exit prompt asked to sync for it. Verified against a
real cron run: 31 changes, cleared with no manual sync.
The window cannot see an external run's exit status, and /proc/locks
carries no outcome. It does not need to: mailsync.sh already ends every
run with a "RUN END ... status=OK" banner in its log, which outlives the
process that wrote it. MailSync::lastRunOutcome() reads a bounded tail
of that file and takes the last completed marker, so no change to the
script and no optimistic guessing were needed.
Only a definite OK clears anything. A failed run, a missing or
unreadable log, and a State::Unknown lock reading all leave the count
alone: over-reporting costs a redundant sync, under-reporting costs the
user their edits.
m_editedAccounts is drained in the same place, before flushHeldEdits()
and matching the local path's ordering. Item 49 uses it to choose which
mbsync channels a run syncs, and a count that reached zero while the set
stayed full would look correct and still sync the wrong channels.
The log path comes from a new optional [sync] log key, defaulting to
where the script writes, so a test never reads the developer's own log.
Two notes on the verification, both recorded in the backlog:
- A timing probe endorsed a tail read that was not happening. The
first version of the huge-log test required the call under 100 ms
and passed with the seek deleted, because reading 10 MB is fast
either way. Replaced with an assertion on content.
- Every fixture was invented and the first batch had the wrong
timestamp format, since the script uses date -Iseconds. The tests
passed anyway, because the parser keys on the prefix and the status
token. One test now builds the banner the way the script does.
The before-flushHeldEdits ordering has no test: without a held lock the
flush is a no-op, so both orderings pass.

A sync ran mbsync -a regardless of what changed, so tagging mail in one
account fetched all of them. The account set was not a parameter anywhere
on the path: MailSync::start() took no arguments and the script hardcoded
-a, so nothing between a tag edit and mbsync carried which account changed.
Track which accounts have edits and pass their mbsync channels through to
the script, which now takes channel names and falls back to -a when given
none. An empty set means all accounts, per the request: a sync with nothing
pending is a fetch, and narrowing that to wherever the last edit landed
would quietly stop collecting mail everywhere else.
The channel is a new optional per-account key rather than the section key.
The two names genuinely diverge, because a QSettings section key may carry
dots that the channel does not, and mbsync treats an unknown channel as
fatal rather than skipping it, so key-as-channel would fail those accounts'
syncs outright rather than degrade. It defaults to the key, so accounts
whose two names already agree need no config change.
The edited-account set is deliberately not netted the way the pending-edit
map is: that map tracks the index, where a tag removed and re-added leaves
nothing outstanding, while this tracks the mail store, where both writes
have already renamed files that mbsync still has to propagate. It is also
snapshotted before flushHeldEdits(), which inserts into it synchronously
rather than on a queued reply, so a successful sync cannot clear accounts
whose edits it never carried.
Closes item 49.

Real Maildir account keys had reached comments and test data:
provider-and-mailbox names across three source files, one of them
carrying a surname, plus a real address used as example data in the
notmuch test fixture and the design spec.
The user's standing rule is that maildir and account names never reach a
commit, and this is about to become a public repository, which is what
makes it consequential rather than untidy. Replaced with generic keys
that carry the same shape, since the length is the point in every one of
these comments: a 33-character account tag is why the chip label exists
and why the tag column was removed.
The measurements stay. They are the evidence behind those decisions and
are not personal details.

Tagging changes the notmuch index at once, but the mail store only hears
about it on the next sync, and nothing said so. Quitting with tagging
outstanding was silent. Items 18 and 19 of the usability backlog, built
together because the second needs the first's counter.
The counter cannot be QUndoStack::isClean(), which is the obvious
candidate and the wrong one: the undo stack is cleared on every query,
since its entries refer to rows the new result set discards. Tag a
thread, run any query, and the stack is empty while the change is still
unsynced. m_pendingEdits is its own count, incremented where a write is
CONFIRMED rather than where one is sent, so an optimistic update the
worker later rejects cannot leave the indicator claiming an edit that
never landed. Only a successful sync resets it: clearing on failure would
assert the changes had reached the mail store when the sync is exactly
what failed to put them there.
It is shown in the status bar, hidden entirely at zero, and described as
a lower bound rather than a guarantee, since an external notmuch run can
carry changes over without this application noticing.
On exit, sync_on_exit in [general] takes ask, always or never. Three
values rather than a bool because "prompt me", "just do it" and "do
nothing" are three behaviours and true/false expresses two; an unknown
value warns by name, since a typo there silently changes what happens to
unsynced work. The prompt offers three buttons for the same reason: a
user who hit Quit by mistake needs a way back that is not "sync". A sync
started at exit holds the window open until it finishes rather than being
killed mid-run, and a sync that FAILS does not quit, because quitting
there would discard the user's choice silently. With no sync command
configured the prompt degrades to a plain warning instead of offering a
sync that cannot run.
This is not a destructive-action confirmation of the kind CLAUDE.md
forbids. Those cover tag mutations, which keep undo instead of a dialog.
This asks about losing work at the one point where undo cannot help.
The tagsApplied lambda became a named slot, which is better structure and
also what lets a test drive it: the worker is deliberately parentless
because it moves to its own thread, so reaching it with findChild to emit
the real signal cannot work, and contorting the test to try was the wrong
instinct. Testing a modal needed its own care. A test that sends a close
event hangs forever if an unexpected dialog opens, because the modal
spins its own event loop; CloseProbe polls for activeModalWidget, closes
it and records that one appeared, turning "a dialog opened" into an
assertion rather than a hang.
Also removes a stray qDebug left in the open_thread action by the earlier
Enter-key investigation, which had reached two commits.

Opening a thread left it tagged unread, so the unread count never
matched what had actually been read and the app was quietly wrong every
day it was used. Item 6 of the usability backlog.
A single-shot timer, armed when a thread is selected and restarted rather
than stacked, so arrowing down a list marks only the thread still
selected when it fires and not every one passed through. Configurable
through mark_read_delay_ms in [general], defaulting to 2000: zero marks
read at once, and any negative value disables the behaviour, which is why
the value is neither clamped nor warned about at either end.
The automatic change deliberately does NOT go on the undo stack. It
routes through sendThreadTagChange() rather than tagSelected(), because
undoing an action the user never took is worse than leaving a thread
read, and toggle_unread already gives them a direct way back. It still
funnels through the single applyTags path; what differs is only whether
the inverse is pushed, which is a window-level decision above the worker.
An explicit toggle_unread cancels any pending timer, or marking a thread
unread by hand would be reversed a moment later and the key would look
broken.
Two guards beyond the plan, both from asking what happens when a timer
outlives the thread it was armed for. Arming is skipped for a thread that
is not unread, so no write is scheduled that would change nothing, and
the handler re-checks that its thread is still selected and still unread
before writing, so a stale timer does nothing rather than tagging the
wrong thread.
The plan expected the rapid-arrow case to need a database and a manual
check. It needs neither: ThreadListModel takes threads through
appendBatch(), so the case is unit-tested. All three tests were confirmed
to fail against deliberately broken versions, one arming for read threads
and one creating a timer per selection instead of restarting one.
Item 7 is closed in the same pass. The user verified against real mail
that HTML messages already open as HTML, which is what the item asked
for, so it is recorded as done with no code changed. The prefer_html key
it floated was not added: nobody has asked to default to plain text, and
Ctrl+H already switches a thread by hand.

Mimetypes are the one completion list with no enumerator, so the user can
extend it. Entries append to the built-ins and a malformed one is skipped
with a problem recorded rather than dropping the whole list.

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.

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.

Two optional keys in an [account.<key>] stanza. color fills the chip,
label sets its text.
Both belong to the account rather than to [tagcolors] because an account
tag is a different taxonomy: which mailbox a thread arrived in, not what
state it is in.
label is display only. "account-provider-work" is a lot of
row for one bit of information, but the notmuch tag is never renamed, so
existing queries and external tagging are unaffected. Unset falls back to
the account key, and an empty label is ignored rather than rendering a
blank chip.

Confirmed with the maintainer as v2-only rather than v2-or-later. LICENSE is
the official text from gnu.org. Every file under src/ and tests/ carries the
matching notice.

Found while walking the task 13 checklist against real mail. Item 1
("startup shows no configuration warnings with a valid config") failed:
with a perfectly valid config that simply had no [sync] command, every
launch opened a blocking modal that had to be dismissed before the window
could be used.
Config now separates the two cases. A problem is something configured but
wrong (a sync command that does not exist, an account with no maildir);
those still open a dialog, as does every KeyMap warning, since each one
means a binding the user wrote is being ignored. A notice is an optional
feature simply not being configured; it reports to the status bar only.
Nothing is broken in that case, and a modal on every launch teaches the
user to dismiss dialogs unread, which defeats the ones that matter.
problems() is a subset of warnings(), so callers wanting everything need
only the latter.

Accounts use [account.work] rather than [account/work]: QSettings' INI
backend treats "/" as its own hierarchical group separator, so a literal
slash in a section header parses as a nested group and trips
QSettings::FormatError, silently breaking childGroups() enumeration. A
dot carries no such meaning and keeps the format flat.
Saved-query order is alphabetical (QSettings::childKeys() sorts), not
file order; documented in code and tests rather than left to a false
assumption.
