Delete added the `deleted` tag and moved nothing, so deleted mail sat in
the inbox indefinitely with only a chip saying otherwise. It now moves the
file into the account's trash, records where it came from, and moves it
back on undo.
The origin is derived in the WORKER, not in the UI, because nowhere else
knows it. A Maildir filename does not record the folder a message came
from and notmuch cannot answer once the file has moved, so the moment the
old filename exists inside moveMessages() is the only place it can be
read. It travels back on a new messagesMovedFrom() signal, and the UI
turns it into a `deleted-from:<folder>` tag that Restore reads days later.
The account is resolved from the message's PATH rather than from its
account tag: that tag is optional config, so resolving through it would
silently make an account undeletable. That needed ThreadSummary to carry
the first message's path, since an unexpanded thread row is the ordinary
case and held no path at all. It is reported relative to the database
root, because the UI knows accounts only by their maildir, itself a
database-relative prefix.
accountForMessagePath() accepts both an absolute and a relative path, and
that is load-bearing rather than defensive: a thread row's path is
relative while a reply row's is absolute, since MimeParser has to open it.
Matching only one form left Delete on a reply resolving to no account and
moving nothing, which is the thread-row/reply-row asymmetry this file has
been bitten by before.
Tags are applied only once the worker CONFIRMS the move. Tagging first
would leave a message marked deleted in a folder it never left when a
rename fails, which is the half-done state this removes. A move made
during a sync is held in its own queue and flushed like a tag edit: the
existing queue carries tag changes only, so a move pushed through it would
apply `deleted` and never move the file.
An account with no trash configured reports through the status bar and
tags nothing, as a second line of defence behind the config-load warning.
Six existing tests used `delete` as a stand-in for a message-scoped tag
action on bare windows with no account; they move to `spam` and
`delete_thread`, which stayed tag-only, keeping the property each was
actually testing.

A thread's card has rendered one message since item 66, but every tag
action still acted on the entire conversation. Delete, Archive,
Important, Mark spam and Toggle unread now act on the message the card
shows; the whole-thread versions move to a "Whole thread" submenu in the
Message menu and the thread list's context menu, on Ctrl+Alt+<key>.
Closes items 87, 88, 105, 106, 107, 108, 109, 110 and 111.
The defects fixed along the way, several found by reading rather than by
report:
- threadAt(current.row()) answered about the wrong thread for a reply
row, because a tree numbers rows per parent. The audit found four live
sites, not the one reported: Delete and Toggle unread each chose their
DIRECTION from an unrelated thread, and the tag dialog counted the
wrong thread's tags. threadFor(index) replaces them.
- A message-scoped write made no optimistic model update and no reply
row carried a doomed cue, so acting on a reply moved the pending-edit
count and changed nothing on screen.
- Both toggles read the state of a reply's THREAD, which a
message-scoped write never changes, so they were one-way: the second
press re-sent a tag the message already had.
- flushHeldEdits() re-sent only thread-scoped edits, so a tag change
made on one message during a sync was applied to the row, counted as
unsynced, and then dropped without ever being written.
- applyTagChange() updated a thread's summary but not its loaded
replies, leaving an expanded thread's rows describing a state the
database no longer held.
- A thread's first message is not among its children, so both
message-scoped lookups missed it: acting on a root card repainted
nothing and emptied the message pane's chip row.
- ThreadSummary::tags is notmuch's union over the thread, so a card
standing for one message drew tags belonging to its siblings. The
worker now reads that message's own tags in the walk that already
finds its id, so the split is known before a row is ever opened.
The card shows both tiers: its own message's tags at full size, the rest
of the conversation's smaller and muted, so nothing appears to vanish
when a row is selected.
Auto mark-read is message-scoped as a result, and now arms for a reply,
which it never did. With maildir.synchronize_flags on, the old
thread-wide write reached the server for mail that had never been
displayed.

Selecting a thread root used to render the whole conversation, stubs
plus the last messages expanded, but only until the thread had been
expanded once. After that the identical click rendered a single message.
The user reported the inconsistency and asked for the single-message
behaviour throughout, and for the conversation view to go.
The cause was a timing one, not a race. The root card stands for the
thread's first message and onThreadSelected already preferred to load
just that, but the model learned the id only when the replies arrived,
so a fresh row fell through to a whole-thread render.
ThreadSummary now carries firstMessageId from the query itself, so the
id is known before any expansion and the fallback is unreachable. It is
free: notmuch_thread_get_toplevel_messages reads the index, not the
message files, and a walk with it is indistinguishable from one without
over a 36,615-thread database. Contrast recipients, which reads every
file and stays Sent-only.
The Sent view keeps showing what the user sent rather than the thread's
opening message, which is often someone else's. There is no
matched-messages iterator in libnotmuch, only a count, so that branch
walks oldest-first to the first NOTMUCH_MESSAGE_FLAG_MATCH and stops:
0.146s against a 0.143s baseline over 4,515 threads.
onThreadLoaded merges into renderMessages, since onMessageLoaded was
already delegating to it for the actual painting. It still takes a list
because MessageView renders a list; collapsing that is a separate change
to a class with its own tests.
NotmuchWorker::loadThread is kept and documented as having no UI caller.
It is a tested way to read a thread's messages with the match set
resolved, used as a helper by the worker's own tests.

Items 70 and 69, the second folded into the first as item 70's own size note
predicted it should be.
The panes drew their state marks as font glyphs: U+1F4CE for an attachment and
U+2605 for a flagged thread, each with a fallback for a font that cannot render
it. Both fell back to "*", so on such a font a flagged thread and one carrying
an attachment were indistinguishable, which is a defect the fallback introduced
rather than prevented. What a mark looks like was also the desktop's decision
rather than this application's, and the panes are exactly where it should not
be: the user asked for the toolbar and menus to keep following their icon theme
while the panes stop.
Six marks now ship in assets/icons/marks/: flagged, attachment, passed, replied
and the two expander triangles. QIcon::fromTheme still resolves every toolbar
and menu icon and was not touched.
Licensing chose the shapes. The look came from a GPL3 icon theme, and this
project is GPLv2-only, which are incompatible: GPLv2's "no further
restrictions" clause bars shipping GPL3 assets in a v2-only work. The six were
drawn fresh in the same idiom instead, with no path data copied. The idiom is
generic: solid single-path silhouettes at 16x16 with no strokes.
They are compiled in as string literals rather than loaded from a .qrc.
src/CMakeLists.txt already records why resources belong to the executable: a
qrc in the static library registers itself from a global initialiser the linker
drops. The tests link the library, so a resource-based mark would be missing
exactly where it needs asserting. assets/icons/marks/ stays the editable
source.
One asset serves both palettes. Every payload paints with fill="currentColor",
which QSvgRenderer renders black rather than resolving, so Marks::pixmap
composites the wanted colour with CompositionMode_SourceIn. A mark then takes
the card's own pen colour and follows selection and the read/unread dimming
without a second variant to keep in step.
CardLayout reserves a rect per mark and CardDelegate paints into it. The marks
were glyphs inside the subject STRING, so their width came free from the text
metrics; as icons the geometry has to know they are there or the subject runs
underneath them. The expander pill had the same trap, its triangle being a
glyph in expanderLabel(), and now reserves that width explicitly.
Item 69's part: passed and replied were words in the tag strip and are marks
beside the subject now. The message pane's header carries the flagged and
attachment marks next to the subject, per the user's decision that the right
pane needs those two and only outside the message area.
A duplicate that no test caught is worth recording. Every geometry assertion
passed while a card showed passed as BOTH an arrow and a green tag chip: the
chip filter had no reason to know a mark had appeared. It was found by
rendering real cards to an image and looking at them. isDrawnAsAMark() is now
one list consulted by both PillTagsRole and MessageOwnTagsRole, since two
copies drifting apart is how a tag ends up drawn twice on one row and not at
all on another.
Fourteen tests: nine in test_marks, four in test_cardlayout, one in
test_threadlistmodel. Mutation-checked at four points, each failing a test: the
subject ignoring the marks, the flag not indenting the subject, the pill
forgetting the triangle's width, and the recolour composite removed.

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.

ActionScope is what an action is about to touch, resolved from the selection in
one place so no call site reinvents the mapping. A thread root contributes the
whole thread, a message row contributes one message, and messageCount is what
the status bar reports.
The count comes from totalCount, not from the loaded children. A thread that was
never expanded still has all of its messages, and counting only the rows that
happen to be on screen would understate what the action does: mutation-checked,
and the wrong version reports 1 message where 7 are about to be tagged.
A mixed selection is honoured as given rather than escalated to thread scope or
narrowed to message scope. Silently widening it would defeat the reason the
scope is shown at all.

loadThread could not be extended to do this. It walks
notmuch_query_search_messages, and a message obtained that way returns NULL from
notmuch_message_get_replies (notmuch.h:1617-1628), so that walk cannot produce
reply depth at all. The tree comes from notmuch_thread_get_toplevel_messages
instead, and the pane keeps the flat list it wants.
walkReplies takes raw notmuch_message_t*, against this file's rule that every
handle is RAII-owned. Messages reached through a thread are freed with it
(notmuch.h:1637), so an NmMessage wrapper would destroy memory the thread frees
again. The NmThread in the caller is what keeps them alive.
Every message in the thread gets a node regardless of the query: the list is
where the reply count is read, and hiding unmatched replies would make that
count disagree with the rows under it.
Both tests mutation-checked. Flattening depth fails the depth assertion, and
skipping the thread walk fails it too, so neither passes against the two
mistakes the notmuch API invites.

A message row has to be drawn without opening the message, so it needs sender,
subject and date. MessageRef carries none of them: it exists for rendering a
thread into the pane and holds only id, path, tags and matched.
depth defaults to 0, the thread's first message, which the root row stands for
rather than a child row. threadId is carried so a batch of nodes names the
thread it belongs to without the caller tracking it alongside.

Nothing in the UI reported database-level facts: every query gave a
thread count for that query, and nothing said how much mail there is
overall. A dialog under Help now shows messages, threads and tags from
notmuch, plus the account list from config, since notmuch does not model
accounts at all.
A separate worker call rather than a reuse of requestCounts, which counts
threads to match the row count of a query. This counts messages, which is
what a user means by "how much mail is in here". The test pins 4 messages
in 3 threads against the fixture and fails if they are ever made equal,
so routing both through one count cannot pass unnoticed.
Every field starts at -1 and renders as "unknown" when notmuch could not
answer it. Printing 0 would say the Maildir is empty, and telling someone
their mail is gone is the worst way to report an index that failed to
open.
The dialog opens showing "Counting..." rather than blocking, since
counting every message is not free on a large database. That makes two
lifetimes matter: the reply can arrive after the dialog is closed, so the
label is a QPointer, and the dialog can be closed and reopened while a
count runs, so a generation counter drops the older answer. The test
drains DeferredDelete before firing the late reply, because close()
deletes through deleteLater and without that the dangling case is never
actually reached.

An attachment was only discoverable by opening the thread. A narrow
leftmost column now marks the threads that carry one.
No new worker query is involved: notmuch applies the "attachment" tag
while indexing, so ThreadSummary already holds what this needs. The
marker is a glyph rather than an icon resource, which ships no new asset
and inherits the row font, so it strikes through with a doomed thread
like every other cell. It falls back to "*" where the system font cannot
draw U+1F4CE, since an unrenderable codepoint reads as breakage rather
than as a marker.
Two silent Qt behaviours had to be handled, both found by probe:
QHeaderView::restoreState() returns true for a blob saved against fewer
columns and applies the old widths shifted one place right. Adding a
column in front would therefore have mangled every existing saved
layout with no error to detect it by. The column count is now stored
beside the blob and a mismatch discards it, so the widths reset once on
upgrade instead of landing on the wrong columns.
QHeaderView's default minimumSectionSize is 58px on this platform, and
setColumnWidth() clamps to it without reporting the smaller value back,
so the column could not be narrow at all until it was lowered.

Selecting a thread and hitting Delete changed nothing on screen, so
there was no way to tell the action had stuck.
The tag was always applied: applyTagChange() emitted dataChanged across
the row, and the Tags column did update. But Subject was set to stretch
while Tags came after it, so Subject took all free width and pushed Tags
out of view. The feedback lived in the one column that could not be seen.
Columns are now Tags, Date, From, Subject, with Subject stretching last
so nothing can be pushed off the right edge. A thread tagged deleted or
spam fills its whole row, muted red or orange with white struck-through
text, through the background, foreground and font roles, so no cue
depends on one column remaining visible.
Strike-through accompanies the fill on purpose: it survives a theme that
overrides backgrounds and reads without colour. Bold for unread still
composes with it.
Archive adds no tag, so an archived row is left unstyled for now.

ThreadSummary, MessageRef, and TagChange are plain-value structs that
carry query results across the worker/UI thread boundary via queued
signals. NmHandle<T, Destroy> wraps libnotmuch's C handles (query,
threads, messages, thread, message, tags) so early returns in the
query paths can't leak.
