A QToolButton with a checkable menu at the right end of the editor bar,
where item 142 put the controls of the editor. Not registered in KeyMap:
parented to the composer like the formatting actions, so its scope is this
window.
The signature is applied through a QTextCursor rather than setPlainText(),
which destroys the undo stack, and the seeded one is cleared from that
stack for the reason the seeded quote already is: one Ctrl+Z must not wipe
content the user never typed.
A resumed draft seeds nothing. Its body already carries the signature it
was written with, and seeding again would put a second one on a message
written once.
Part of item 152.

[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.

Finding a "-- " delimiter is not authority to delete what follows it. The
block is replaced only when its text matches one of the signatures on disk,
and otherwise the new one is inserted with nothing removed, so a wrong guess
adds a visible duplicate rather than destroying the user's writing.
A quoted delimiter is never the signature either: the quoted original
carries the other party's, and it is not this message's to replace.
The block's lower boundary is quoteStart(), not the first quoted line. The
attribution introduces the quote and belongs with it, so scanning for '>'
alone swallowed "On Mon, someone wrote:" into the signature block: it then
matched no known signature, and had it matched, removal would have stranded
the attribution above the text it introduces. The boundary the insertion
uses and the boundary the removal uses have to be the same one.
The guard's test was mutation-checked by making the match unconditional,
which fails it.

Both placements over one implementation. above_quote inserts before the
attribution rather than before the first quoted line: the attribution
introduces the quote and belongs with it, and a signature between the two
would read as part of the quoted message.
A buffer with no quote makes above_quote identical to end, so a new
message needs no branch of its own.

One file per signature under a directory the caller names, the stem being
the name shown to the user. A name containing a path separator is refused:
it arrives from the config file, and it reaches a path that is read into a
message about to be sent.

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.

Item 157, the half item 153 did not close. A draft was editable by
double-click and by a Message-menu entry, neither of which is where the
user looks while reading one. populateMessageBar() swaps the reply pair
for edit_draft on a displayed draft.
Three things came out of hand-testing it, each invisible to the tests
written before them.
The bar keyed on currentIndex(), which a query leaves valid on a row of
the discarded result, so it kept the draft button after switching to the
inbox and the reply pair after switching to drafts. This is item 150's
trap one level up. It answers from m_currentMessageId/m_currentThreadId
now, which every blanking route clears, refilled from
showPlaceholderPane(), the one site all five of those routes share.
That exposed a defect predating the bar: updateComposeActions() ran only
from the two selection handlers, so Reply and Forward stayed enabled over
a blank pane. Invisible while they sat on the main toolbar among
always-on actions.
The bar is hidden over an empty pane, so it comes and goes with the
subject and the details button rather than hovering over the logo. That
in turn broke the showing half: setBarActions() runs before showThread()
fills m_items, so the first message opened after a blanking left the bar
hidden and the second showed it from stale items, one selection behind
for the life of the view. updateHeader() shows it, beside the details
button it rides with.
The test missed the last one by asserting before the render landed,
measuring the placeholder; it waits on showingPlaceholder() now.

Item 153. DraftStore had a write() and no reader, and nothing opened a
composer from an existing message, so a draft rendered like ordinary mail
and could never be finished or sent.
ComposeContextBuilder::forDraft() reads one back. A new Kind::Draft seeds
every field verbatim: the subject takes no Re:/Fwd: prefix, and the body
goes in exactly as it was left, with none of seedBody()'s quote framing. It
is reachable by double-click and by an edit_draft action in the Message
menu.
Three things the shape of this depends on.
A resumed draft must OWN its file. Maildir has no in-place edit, so an
autosave writes a new file and unlinks the old one; a composer that did not
know its own path would leave the original behind and one message would
become two. ComposeContext::draftPath carries it into m_draftPath, which the
autosave already knew how to replace.
MimeParser had no bcc, and nothing had ever needed one. MessageBuilder
writes Bcc into the draft file deliberately and explains why, so a resumed
draft that ignored it would drop every blind recipient from the message the
user then finishes and sends, reporting nothing.
edit_draft is gated on the file being inside a configured drafts folder,
matched on the PATH. A `draft` tag is not enough: notmuch surfaces the
Maildir D flag as one, and a message flagged by another client sits in the
inbox. Offered on ordinary mail, the composer would own a file it did not
write and the first autosave would delete a received message.
And a live defect found on the way, which is most of why this took as long
as it did. updateComposeActions() ran only from onSelectionChanged. Both
signals fire for an ordinary click, so nothing had noticed; but running a
query and setting the current index emits currentRowChanged ALONE, so the
enablement was computed against the previously selected row. Edit draft
stayed disabled on a draft selected that way, and the reply family had the
same blind spot with no test that could see it. Now connected to both.
Reading currentRowChanged is safe here for the reason CLAUDE.md gives: it
answers "which row is current", and no count is read.
WorkerBackedWindow::AccountSpec gains a drafts field, which the two new
tests need and which no fixture could express before.
|
|
Items 138 and 148.
The query row carried Unread, Inbox, Important, Sent and Trash, and no
Drafts, though the composer has been autosaving into each account's drafts
folder since compose shipped. Reaching them meant typing a query by hand.
Smaller than its size suggested: Account::draftsQuery() and
Config::allDraftsQuery() already existed for the placeholder pane's drafts
count, and builtinFilters() derives the row from kQueryGenerators, so the
work was the generator entry, two resolvedQuery branches, a label and an
icon.
It follows TRASH rather than Sent. Folder-matched like both, because `draft`
is a Maildir flag notmuch surfaces as a tag while the folder is what the
user means and what the composer actually writes into. But NOT flat: Sent is
flat so a thread cannot fold the user's own message back into the
conversation it answers, and a draft reply belongs with its conversation for
the same reason a trashed message does.
An account with no drafts folder shows no button, per item 103's rule. The
existing row test surfaced that by failing until its fixture configured one,
which is the rule working rather than a defect.
Ctrl+W closes the composer, which bound nothing at all: the only way out was
the title bar. The action is parented to the composer, so it is a
WindowShortcut dispatched to the active one only and the main window's
namespace is untouched, exactly like the formatting shortcuts. It calls
close() rather than doing anything of its own, since closeEvent() already
decides whether the draft is saved and a second route out that skipped it
would lose the message.
The Italian gains "Bozze"; lrelease reports 478 finished, 0 unfinished.

An Expanding vertical size policy stretched the button to the full height of
the header form beside it, while the icon and the label kept their natural
sizes. The result was a tall rectangle with the icon anchored near the top,
the label near the bottom, and a gap between them: two marks rather than one
control.
Fixed size, derived from the icon so the square still fits its contents if
toolbar_icon_size changes, and aligned vertically centre against the headers
so the whole button is centred rather than its contents. The icon grows to
the configured size plus 8, since at this scale it is the button's subject
and the word underneath is the caption.
Nothing in the layout or the actions could see this, which is why the test
now asserts the vertical policy and that width equals height. Both fail
against the previous code.
|
|
Items 142, 143, 144 and 145, to the layout the user described.
The composer had one addToolBar carrying three scopes at once: text
formatting, message composition, and the terminal action. It read as a menu
bar that is not one. There is now no window toolbar at all.
From: [.............] +--------+
To: [.........] [v Cc/Bcc] | Send |
Subject: [...........................] +
[B][I][</>][S][link]["] [Attach] [Send as HTML]
+---------------------------------------------+
| message text |
+---------------------------------------------+
[Remove] * report.pdf <- only when attached
Send is a large icon-above-text button beside the headers: it is the
terminal action and carries the weight to match. Formatting is a toolbar
widget in the central column directly above the text it formats, icon-only
with the words kept as tooltips, which is where a tooltip stops being
decoration. Attach and the HTML toggle ride the right end of that bar, past
a stretch, because neither formats text. Remove attachment sits with the
list it acts on and appears only once something is attached.
"Also send a formatted copy" becomes "Send as HTML": the old label described
a mechanism without naming it, leaving the reader to infer that "formatted"
meant HTML and that "copy" meant a MIME part rather than a second message.
Cc and Bcc hide behind a disclosure beside To:. revealCcBccIfUsed() only
ever shows, never hides, so nothing but the user's own click can make a
field holding an address invisible: a hidden recipient is a message going
somewhere the sender cannot see, which is worse than the clutter this
removes. The label is hidden with each field, since a QFormLayout holds the
two as separate items and hiding the line edit alone strands a "Cc:" over
empty space.
Two send-lock faults, one predicted and one not. The backlog warned that
setInputsEnabled() disabled the single toolbar wholesale, so the send-path
test was strengthened to name every control BEFORE the split; it then caught
Attach live during a countdown, where a file appended after MessageBuilder
has run is either dropped or added to bytes already sent, silently either
way. With every control named it failed again on format_bold: disabling a
QToolBar greys its buttons but leaves each QAction enabled, so Ctrl+B during
a send would have edited a message already being built, through a button
that looked unavailable. setInputsEnabled() now walks the bar's actions too.
The Italian translation is refreshed; lrelease reports 477 finished, 0
unfinished.

Three corrections from looking at the built bar.
Compose returns to the main toolbar. The split this was built to, "about a
message" against "about the list", does not survive contact: what matters is
what the action NEEDS. Reply and Forward are meaningless without a message on
display, while Compose needs none and is disabled only when no account can
send. So the pane's bar holds exactly the two actions that depend on what it
is showing, and Compose sits with the window-wide ones.
The bar moves below the subject and details rows, directly above the web
view. At the top of the pane it read as window chrome rather than as
belonging to the message. The transient notice bars stay above it: they
explain the message rather than offer an action on it.
Its icons were the style's own default, 16px, which is tiny beside a 32px
toolbar. They are now 7/8 of toolbar_icon_size, which is the 28 the user
asked for at their 32, derived rather than hardcoded so the relation holds
if that key changes. The test asserts the relation as well as the value,
since a bare 28 would stop meaning anything the moment the key moved.
m_headerLabel gains an object name so the placement test can find the row it
must sit below.
|

Items 139, 140 and 141, built together because the seam between them is
wasted work: 140 needs a container and 141 is that container.
The main toolbar had grown to mix two scopes. Sync, Archive, Delete, Mark
all read and Undo act on the list or the selection; Compose, Reply and
Forward are about one message. With everything in one row the distinction
was invisible, and Forward was on no toolbar at all, reachable only from the
Message menu, which is item 139.
Compose, Reply and Forward now sit on a bar above the message pane, and
LEAVE the main toolbar rather than gaining a second home: that is what makes
the toolbar's remaining contents mean one thing. Toggle HTML joins them at
the right end, separated by an expanding spacer, since changing how a
message is displayed is a different scope from acting on it. That layout was
the open design question item 141 recorded, and it was settled with the user
rather than guessed.
The actions are MainWindow's own QAction objects shown a second time, never
copies: a duplicate would carry its own enablement and drift from the menu
entry updateComposeActions() keeps in step. MessageView::setBarActions() is
the seam, so the pane still knows nothing about the window's action map.
Two things worth recording:
QToolBar has no addStretch(), so the separation is an expanding spacer
widget. A test asserting only on action ORDER passes with that spacer
deleted, measured, so it asserts on the spacer's size policy instead.
noTwoActionsShareAnIcon looked up the toolbar with an unnamed
findChild<QToolBar*>(). There are two toolbars now, so it is pinned to
main_toolbar: pointed at the pane's bar it would have asserted that a
thread action is absent from a bar that never holds any, and passed while
the rule it exists for went unchecked.
|
|
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.
|
|
The three out-of-band bars in the message pane were plain labels on the
pane's own background, so they read as part of the page they were trying to
interrupt. They now carry a severity, as the user asked for:
- yellow for a warning that explains a limitation and offers nothing to do
about it (the receive-only ribbon)
- blue for one offering an action (remote content blocked, stale thread),
with the button moved right of a stretch, where the eye ends up after
reading the sentence
Each severity carries its own light and dark set rather than one tint
dimmed, and the theme is read off QPalette::Base, the same surface
HtmlBuilder reads, so a bar and the message under it cannot disagree about
which way round the theme is. Every ground states its own text colour: the
palette's may be near-white, which is unreadable on a pale tint.
The blocked row had to become a widget on the way. It was a bare
QHBoxLayout, which has nothing to paint a ground on, and once wrapped, the
six sites that hid its label and button individually had to hide the
wrapper instead or an empty painted strip would have been left behind.
The test asserts on the stylesheet string rather than on pixels, per
CLAUDE.md on rendering probes: an unshown widget offscreen renders nothing,
so a pixel test would pass whatever the code does. It compares the COLOURS
the sheets name rather than the sheets themselves, since each names its own
widget and would differ by that alone.
|
|
MessageView::clear() resets the blocked-content bar, the stale notice and
the attachment bar by hand, and forgot the receive-only ribbon. Only
setReceiveOnlyAccount() ever hid it, and that is reached from
updateComposeActions(), which runs on a SELECTION change.
So the ribbon survived every route to a blank pane that is not one:
clear_pane, clear_selection, a new query, and a multi-row selection. It sat
over a blank pane, or over another account's mail, naming an account that
was no longer on screen and contradicting the live Reply button beside it.
Worth recording because it cost a test: the first one written for this
selected receive-only mail and then mail from a sending account, which is
how the report reads. It passed against the unfixed code, because that
gesture is precisely the one path that was already covered. The test now
drives clear_pane and a new query as well.
Its own trap, in the test rather than the code: clear_pane leaves the row
CURRENT, so re-selecting it emits no change and the ribbon is never
re-raised. The test moves away and back instead.
|
|
quote_position names where the QUOTE goes, so the reply belongs on the
other side of it and the cursor has to follow the reply rather than the
buffer. seedBody() moved the cursor to Start under both positions, which
is correct only for Below: under Above, the shipped default, it landed on
the "On ... wrote:" attribution line, so every reply had to have room made
before it could be typed.
End under Above, Start under Below.
The existing theQuotePositionDecidesWhereTheQuoteLands passed throughout
the defect and still does, because the quote was in the right place all
along; only the cursor was not. The new test asserts the cursor's block is
blank, and that typing lands on the correct side of the quote, so a fix
that freed the cursor by inverting the position would not satisfy it.
Also re-measures item 136 in the backlog, which is not the intermittent
race it was filed as: undoMovesTheMessageBack fails 6 runs in 6 when named
alone and passes in the full suite, on a clean tree, so it depends on the
tests before it.
|

A composer is deliberately parentless, so that it appears in the task
switcher and stays usable while the main window is. Qt therefore does not
take it down with that window, and being a live top-level it kept the process
alive: the main window vanished, the composer stayed on screen with nothing
behind it, and closing it then raised the unsaved-edits dialog for a session
the user had already ended.
The quit path already ASKED about those edits and saved them. What it never
did was close the windows afterwards.
Closing rather than deleting: WA_DeleteOnClose is set on every composer, so
close() is what frees them, and it lets ComposeWindow::closeEvent() run its
own draft handling on the way out. Iterating a copy of the list, since
closing runs the `closed` handler and that mutates m_composers.
Placed last, after every route that turns back has returned: reaching it means
the application really is quitting.
The test opens TWO composers, so a fix that closed only the last one cannot
pass it. Mutation-checked by removing the loop.

The reply family is disabled on mail that arrived at an account with no
send_command, behind a ribbon in MessageView naming the account and the key
to add. save_message is deliberately never disabled: it is the escape hatch
for exactly that case.
The ribbon is a WIDGET in the pane's layout, never markup inside the web
view. Composing HTML from configuration into the one document that renders
input from strangers is the wrong direction, and the header row is already a
widget for the same reason.
Compose itself is disabled only when NO account can send, and that state is
not warned about at startup: an installation with no send_command anywhere
is a valid read-only installation.
Every reply resolves through messageScopeFor(), not threadFor(): a thread
row means the one message its card shows. Replying to a thread is
meaningless; a reply answers a message. The context is built from the
DATABASE rather than the model, the rule Restore already follows, because a
row whose state has not been re-queried carries stale values and a reply
built from one would carry the wrong recipients.
The mail root crosses from the worker as its own signal. There was no route
for it at all: mailRootOf() is file-static in notmuchworker.cpp, and item
124 records that composing a destination from database.path writes into the
Xapian tree under a split index. The test uses NotmuchFixture::splitIndex(),
the only layout where the two accessors disagree.
A thread row's path is RELATIVE to the mail root while a message row's is
absolute, so the account lookup matched nothing and the reply family was
dead on mail from an account that could send. Found by the positive guard
test rather than the negative one, which passed throughout for the wrong
reason.
The quit path checks the failed-save case FIRST. In the ordinary case
nothing is lost by saving; there, saving is what is already not working, so
the dialog says plainly that quitting loses that text rather than offering a
save that will fail again. Both dialogs name the composers, and the ordinary
one asks once whatever the count, because three modals in a row is worse
than a coarse answer. Its wording says drafts already saved stay in the
folder, so Discard cannot read as 'delete my three messages'.
The Save loop holds QPointers, not raw pointers. A deleteLater() posted
while a nested exec() runs IS processed by that nested loop, measured in a
standalone program: the guard nulls before the modal returns. Closing a
composer while the quit dialog is up therefore freed a window the loop then
called saveDraftNow() on, crashing at the exact moment the application
promised to preserve that text.
A compose request that matches nothing clears itself and says so. It was
cleared only on a match, so a message deleted between selection and Reply
left the request armed for the session: Reply did nothing, and the next
ordinary click on that message opened a composer nobody asked for while the
pane stayed blank.
Forward carries the original's attachments, which the context has always had
a field for and nothing ever filled, and seeds its HTML toggle from
[compose] send_html. Only Reply seeds that from the original.
save_message keeps its filename inside the chosen directory and no longer
overwrites a file already there. The check was correct and untested: the
test asserted through Attachment's helpers rather than through the function
production calls, so deleting the containment check outright left it green.

A separate top-level QMainWindow, one per draft, several open at once. A
modal dialog cannot consult another message while writing, which is most of
what replying is, and taking over the message pane fights the pane that
exists to show what is being replied to.
No geometry save and no restore, deliberately. Under a tiling compositor
saveGeometry stores normalGeometry while the compositor owns the tile, so
the restore is correct and looks broken; a whole session went into that
once.
Autosave is a debounce AND a dirty check: an unchanged message writes no
file and provokes no sync. The check is on a fingerprint of the
OutgoingMessage, NOT on the built bytes as the plan drafted. GMime is given
a fresh Date and Message-ID on every build, so two builds of an unchanged
message never compare equal; a check on the bytes would have read as
working while writing a file, and an mbsync upload, on every debounce.
Checking before the build also skips the blocking build for the no-change
case, which is the common one.
closeEvent writes the draft when the buffer is dirty. Without it the
debounce is a hole rather than a delay: typing a paragraph and pressing the
window manager's X inside the interval loses it silently, since
WA_DeleteOnClose destroys the window immediately afterwards. A failed save
there does NOT refuse the close, because a window that will not close
because it cannot save is worse than one that closes having raised the
banner, which is what the quit path reads.
One flag covers a send, countdown included. An earlier revision had two,
and the narrower "committed and running" one reads as the honest thing to
guard a live SMTP conversation with. It is not: a close during the
countdown destroys the parented SendDialog, committed() never fires, and
the user pressed Send, watched a countdown, and believes the mail went. The
narrow flag was also written in three places and read in none.
A failed draft write raises a persistent banner rather than a modal or a
fading status line. A modal mid-sentence is hostile while the user is
typing, but the warning must survive until it is dealt with, because the
quit path escalates exactly this state to a dialog on the way out. An
account with no drafts folder reports success rather than failure: nothing
was written and nothing failed, and a false there would make the quit path
offer a retry no retry can change.
A failed send saves the draft before reporting. send() builds from the
widgets without saving, so the revision on disk is whatever the last
debounce wrote: edit, send, fail, close, and the user gets the older text
back, having watched their correction be sent.
A failed sent copy after a successful send is a modal, and never a send
failure: the message went, and reporting otherwise makes someone send it
twice. It is the one failure here that silently diverges what the recipient
received from what the local archive shows, and nobody discovers a missing
sent copy by noticing a line that appeared for a few seconds.
The formatting toolbar applies its edits through a QTextCursor document
replacement inside one edit block, NOT setPlainText as the plan drafted.
Measured against a real widget: setPlainText destroys the document's undo
stack and resets the cursor to 0, so every toolbar press would throw away
everything the user could undo. The cursor route leaves undo available,
collapses to a single undo step, and emits textChanged once. The seeded
quote is cleared off the undo stack afterwards, since it is not an edit the
user made and one Ctrl+Z on a fresh composer must not wipe it.
The per-send connect carries Qt::SingleShotConnection. MessageSender is a
long-lived member, so a bare connect accumulates a permanent receiver per
send and the second result runs both lambdas, the first still holding the
first message's bytes: it files a sent copy of the wrong message and acts
on a dialog it already destroyed. Covered by a test that sends, fails,
corrects and sends again; without the flag it segfaults in QLabel::setText
on the destroyed dialog. Its companion disconnect takes the specific
connection handle rather than every finished receiver on this object, so a
later observer cannot be killed silently.
The attachment warning states sizes with a decimal and a stepped unit.
Integer MB division read as "'x' is 0 MB. Many mail servers refuse messages
above about 0 MB." for any attachment_warn_bytes below a megabyte, in both
halves of one sentence.
The autosave timer is created before buildUi(), which is load-bearing:
buildUi connects every field to markDirty and seeding then fills those
fields, so markDirty runs during construction. Created afterwards it is a
null dereference on the first seeded field, which is every composer.
Twenty-six cases in test_mainwindow, each mutation-checked.

Three rows in every state so nothing reflows and the window never jumps. The
bar changes MODE rather than place: determinate while the countdown drains,
because a countdown has measurable progress, and indeterminate once the
command starts, because a send does not. That is the pairing item 134's
widget was extracted to serve.
The delay is where cancelling is safe and it is the only place it is.
Nothing has reached a server during the countdown, so Undo means genuinely
nothing happened; killing send_command once it runs leaves an UNKNOWN send,
which is worse than either clean outcome. Undo therefore disables itself the
moment the command starts, and stays visible while disabled: a control that
vanishes re-lays out the popup mid-operation, and a greyed Undo says why
cancelling is no longer possible where an absent one looks like it was never
offered.
The test for this asserts the NEGATIVE property, that committed() never
fires after Undo, including after the original countdown would have elapsed.
Asserting only that undone() fired would pass against a design that ran the
command and threw the result away, which is the whole failure the delay
exists to prevent.
Removing the close BUTTON is not the same as closing the code path, and the
first draft did only the former while its comments claimed otherwise. Escape
still reached QDialog::reject(), and close() during the countdown hid the
window while leaving the timer running, so the send committed with nothing
on screen and the only cancel control destroyed: measured, committed=1 on a
dialog the user had dismissed. A never-shown dialog did the same, since
close() returns early without reaching done(). That is CLAUDE.md's done(int)
trap in the one place it costs mail rather than state.
Dismissal is REFUSED before commit rather than treated as an implicit Undo,
at the user's decision: a close that silently means cancel overloads one
gesture with two meanings, while a refusal leaves Undo as the only way out,
which is what the popup's single control already says. done(int) refuses
pre-commit and forces Accepted after, closeEvent covers the never-shown
route done() cannot see, and Undo passes through both. Task 12 needs no
special entry point, since it closes after the send finishes and that is
post-commit by definition.
A refusal must not read as a hang, so the label says how to leave. Making
the hint silent was a mutation that SURVIVED, because the text was written
in two places and neutering one was masked by the other; extracting it to
one function exposed a real defect behind the wrong green, in that the next
tick overwrote the hint 100ms later and the refusal was effectively silent
anyway. It is held for 1500ms now, with a test that it survives a tick and
still releases.
setStage is public and Task 12 passes values into it, so it refuses to wind
back to CountingDown after commit rather than trusting its caller with an
invariant this class documents as inviolable; the label read "Sending in
0..." and the bar returned to determinate. Both m_committed guards carry
tests: removing them left the suite green, so two deliberate safety
additions rested on reasoning alone.
Every route out is asserted, per the rule that a test using close() while
the user uses Cancel covers one route of three: close() shown, close()
never-shown, Escape bare and with Shift and Ctrl, reject() direct, and Undo,
which must still work or the popup is a trap.
The status label is sized to the longest string it can hold in the current
language rather than to its content: Italian 'Rimozione della bozza...' is
longer than 'Removing draft...', and a label sized to content resizes the
popup between stages.

Handlers are empty for now; this commit is the registration, so the three
coverage tests guard every later task rather than being satisfied at the end.
Two corrections to the spec, both found in the code rather than assumed. It
calls for a new top-level Message menu and one already exists, so these join
it; two menus named Message would be a defect. And it says every action
needs a binding, which item 132 changed while this was being planned:
save_message ships with no chord, since it is the rarely-used escape hatch
and menu reachability is now the rule that must hold.
reply_no_quote shares reply's icon and is added to the no-duplicate-icons
exception list for the same reason the five thread actions are: it never
reaches the toolbar, and a menu entry always carries its text. That list is
renamed menuOnlySharedIconActions, after the property that earns the
exemption rather than the tier that first needed it.
Bindings are provisional. The user intends to rework them, and Ctrl+Alt+R
for reply_no_quote is an imperfect fit since that tier elsewhere means a
wider scope rather than a variant.
The six labels went through a mnemonic pass that nothing enforced before.
Four of them collided inside the Message menu on first writing, and the
whole class was invisible to a green suite: Qt does not error on a duplicate
mnemonic, it cycles the highlight instead of activating, so the key simply
stops working. Item 57 had already decided this rule by rejecting a label
that would have collided, but it lived in prose and in one test's comment,
which is precisely why it was broken again here.
noMenuHasTwoEntriesSharingAMnemonic() enforces it now, scoped per menu since
a mnemonic resolves among the open menu's entries, and keyed on
QKeySequence::mnemonic() rather than on parsing & by hand, because && is a
literal ampersand and only Qt answers which key it will dispatch. Three
pre-existing collisions are a named freeze list rather than a silent fix or
a narrowed test: Alt+R three ways and Alt+S twice in Message, Alt+O in View.
Renaming entries a user has had in their fingers since 0.1.0 belongs to the
shortcuts rework, and the freeze is written as exact groups so a new entry
joining any of them still fails.
Two of the test's own design choices came from mutation checks that failed
for the right reason while reporting the wrong thing. Reporting collisions
as pairs was order-dependent, so a new colliding entry re-keyed a frozen
pair and the fresh defect read as "a frozen collision no longer happens";
matching frozen entries by whole string broke the same way, since a growing
group stopped matching its frozen text. It reports whole groups and matches
on menu plus key.

MarkdownFormat, task 8 of the compose-and-send plan. Three free functions
over (text, selection start, selection end) returning the new text and the
selection that follows it, so the grammar is tested without a widget.
Three gaps in the plan's draft, each now pinned by a test checked against the
mutation that breaks it:
- QString::lastIndexOf INCLUDES the position it is given, so quoting with the
cursor at the end of a line found that line's newline and quoted the
FOLLOWING one. The draft's fixtures never placed a cursor there.
- A backwards selection was normalised but never tested, so the swap was
unguarded; a right-to-left drag is an ordinary gesture and Qt reports the
anchor after the cursor. normalise() now swaps and clamps in one place.
- A blank line inside a quoted range produced "> " with trailing whitespace,
which editors and mail clients strip anyway. It is written bare.
Two further defects came out of review:
- quote()'s selectionStart was unasserted for any block not starting at line
zero. Hardcoding it to 0 passed all nineteen tests, because the one test
naming the property quoted the first line, where right and wrong coincide.
A wrong selection there means a second press quotes a line the user never
selected, and a following Bold bolds the wrong text.
- A selection splitting a surrogate pair split the character across the
inserted tokens, leaving invalid UTF-16. Not reachable from the toolbar,
where arrow keys and mouse hit-testing both move in whole clusters, but
reachable by any code computing a position arithmetically. normalise()
nudges off a low surrogate; a collapsed cursor moves back on both ends,
since widening would turn "insert an empty pair here" into "wrap the emoji".
The buttons stack rather than toggle: a second Bold press gives ****this****,
and a second Quote press nests. That is what the spec specifies, and the
preserved selection exists so a second press can apply a SECOND token. A
toggle was built during this task at the user's request and reverted on
finding it contradicts the spec at two sites; it is recorded as backlog item
135, where the unanswered question is what replaces bold-then-italic.

ComposeContext, task 7 of the compose-and-send plan. Address parsing,
recipient derivation, the References chain, subject prefixing and account
resolution, as free functions over values so they test without a painter.
Recipient derivation was designed from the spec rather than transcribed: the
plan's draft omitted it and its tests could not compile, calling
QVERIFY(config.load(path)) against a void return.
Six defects found in review, each pinned by a test checked against the
mutation that breaks it:
- Message-ids reached GMime bare, and GMime writes an EMPTY header for a bare
addr-spec rather than complaining. In-Reply-To and References both shipped
blank, so every reply would have arrived as an orphan thread with nothing
wrong to see locally. MessageBuilder now brackets on write, in the one place
that composes those headers rather than in each caller.
- internet_address_to_string was called with FALSE for the encode flag, so a
display name carrying a raw newline rendered with the newline intact. That
is a header-injection primitive.
- A reply to the user's own message addressed the user. It now goes to that
message's original recipients, mirroring their To/Cc split, which is what
the Sent view and a follow-up on unanswered mail need.
- A From parsing to no mailbox left To empty, reachable from real mail
("From: Mailer Daemon"). MessageBuilder treats an empty recipient list as
success, so the message would have been handed to the send command with
nobody to deliver to and filed in Sent looking sent.
- The References header was split on whitespace alone, so a client's
non-conformant "<a@x>,<b@y>" became one token and the bracket strip produced
the fabricated id "a@x>,<b@y".
- Reply and forward prefixes were recognised in English only, doubling every
AW:, SV:, WG: and Re[2]: a mixed-locale mailbox receives. Single-letter
spellings are deliberately excluded: with R: recognised, "R: report on Q3"
reads as a prefix and a genuine first reply threads nowhere.
The mailbox-only guard in parseAddressHeader survived its first mutation
check, because removing it still yields no recipients: the invalid GObject
cast makes GMime's own assertion return NULL. That is undefined behaviour
papered over by an assertion G_DISABLE_CHECKS compiles out, so the test now
asserts on the emitted critical rather than on the count. Registering the log
handler on a NULL domain catches nothing; the criticals carry "GLib-GObject"
and "gmime".

MessageSender runs the configured command with the message on stdin and
judges the result by its exit status alone. Nothing here waits on the
event loop, so a send does not block the GUI thread; a 1.6MB payload was
probed through a reading stub without deadlocking the pipe buffer.
The command is split and passed to QProcess as a program and an argument
list, never through a shell. A test asserts that by giving the command
shell metacharacters and checking that the marker file a shell would have
created does not exist, so the property fails a mutation rather than
resting on a comment.
Four corrections to the plan's draft. splitCommand handles double quotes
only, so a single-quoted argument splits wrongly and the header now says
so. A crashing command delivers finished(11, CrashExit) and would have
been reported as "exited with status 11", so a crash branch was added. A
command that exits without draining a large stdin emits WriteError before
finished(), which the draft handled correctly and by luck, untested. And
an empty send_command is checked after trimming.
Two contract gaps found in review, both about what this class promises
rather than what it does.
The exactly-once guarantee covers the EMIT, not what a caller receives: a
long-lived sender plus a connect() inside each send accumulates
receivers, and the second result then runs the first send's lambda too,
filing a sent copy of the wrong message. The header now scopes the
promise and requires Qt::SingleShotConnection. The plan's Task 11 call
site already had that flag, sixty-nine lines below the connect and
outside anything a reader would see, so the plan gained a note where
someone retyping it will read it.
And destruction mid-send killed the command with no report, announced
only by a Qt warning: a live SMTP conversation abandoned, possibly
partially delivered, while the user believes it was cancelled. The
destructor now closes stdin, waits a bounded five seconds, and only then
kills. It emits nothing either way, because the outcome after a kill is
genuinely unknown and reporting "not sent" for a message that may have
gone out is the mailsync.sh mistake pointing the other way. Claiming
m_reported before kill() is what makes that true, since kill() delivers
finished(CrashExit), which would otherwise emit exactly that untruth.
No timeout on the send itself: killing a slow but working send is worse
than waiting. Task 10 owns the popup, and deliberately offers no cancel
after commit, so this class promises none either.
Also refreshes the translations Task 5 left out. That gap was invisible
because test_translations builds its rows from the .ts file, so a string
that never entered it is never asserted on.

DraftStore::write() renders a built message into <folder>/cur with the
given Maildir flags, writing through QSaveFile and unlinking the previous
revision only after the new file is in place.
Two orderings here are load-bearing and both are covered by a test that
was checked against the mutation that breaks it.
The unlink runs only after the write has succeeded, so a failed save
leaves the previous revision intact rather than losing both. Provoking
that failure needs care: the plan's version used an unwritable path where
mkpath() fails and the function returns before reaching either the write
or the unlink, so a mutation moving the unlink up survived it. The test
uses an existing but read-only cur/ instead, where the failure lands at
the write.
And the size comparison stays ahead of commit() in the condition, because
QSaveFile::commit() returns true after a short write and renames the
truncated bytes into place: measured, write 4096 of 65536 with commit
reporting true and the file left in the listing. What leaves the
directory empty is the short-circuit returning before commit() is
reached, after which ~QSaveFile() discards the uncommitted scratch file.
Reducing the condition to !file.commit() looks like a simplification and
writes a truncated draft into cur/, where notmuch would index it and
mbsync would upload it.
Resolving the mail root stays the caller's job, per item 124; this takes
an absolute folder path and composes nothing.

Two silent failures on the path that produces bytes for other people.
A directory passed the attachment guard, because QFileInfo reports a
directory as existing and readable, and opening one read-only is legal. GMime's
base64 encoder then looped on read() returning EISDIR without advancing:
measured at 2.1 million failed reads in twenty seconds and still going. Since
build() runs synchronously from autosave on the GUI thread, dragging a folder
into a composer froze the whole application with the draft unrecoverable.
isFile() also excludes device nodes and FIFOs, which block the same way.
An unparseable recipient was dropped rather than reported. The old code
skipped anything that failed to parse and then only wrote the header if what
survived was non-empty, so a message whose only recipient was mistyped was
built with no To: header at all and reported success. With msmtp -t taking its
recipients from the headers, that is a message handed to the send command with
nobody to deliver to, and a copy filed in Sent that looks sent and reached no
one. A recipient the user typed and this cannot understand now stops the send,
the way a missing attachment already does.
The directory test carries a timeout deliberately: a regression there hangs
the binary rather than failing it. Two details make that work and the first
draft had neither. It must not join the worker, since a thread stuck in the
defect never returns and the join reproduces the hang instead of reporting it,
verified by reverting the fix: with the join the binary had to be killed at
150s with no verdict, without it it reports a FAIL and exits in 15s. The
result is shared through a shared_ptr so the leaked thread cannot write into a
returned stack frame.
Also: the no-address error names the account, since it matters once several
exist; messageId is assigned once on the success path rather than set early
and cleared on each failure, which is an invariant the next early return would
forget; and the Bcc comment now records that keeping the header stores the
blind list in plaintext in the sent copy and any draft, which mbsync syncs to
the server. That is accepted knowingly, and saying so stops a later reader
"fixing" it and silently breaking blind delivery.
One correction to the review that prompted this. The claim that
internet_address_list_parse returns a zero-length list rather than NULL did not
reproduce: measured on GMime 3.2 with a standalone probe, every garbage input
tried returned NULL, and no input was found producing a non-null empty list.
The length check is kept as defensive code and is documented as such rather
than as observed behaviour, since no fixture reaches it and a mutation on it
survives the suite. The defect itself was real and is what the test kills.

One built message serves three consumers: the autosaved draft, the bytes on
the send command's stdin, and the sent copy. A draft is therefore
byte-identical to what would be sent.
Three GMime defaults are wrong for this application and each is corrected
explicitly, because all three fail only on accented text and this user
writes Italian:
GMime encodes as iso-8859-1 unless told otherwise, so the subject carries an
explicit utf-8 argument. g_mime_text_part_set_text() encodes with whatever
charset is set when it is CALLED, so setting the charset afterwards produces
a part labelled utf-8 carrying latin-1 bytes; the content stream is built
directly instead. And neither Date nor Message-ID is generated unless asked
for, and a message without a Message-ID cannot be threaded by anything that
receives it.
Attachments are checked at build time rather than at attach time: a file can
vanish in between, and a message missing the thing it was written to carry
must never reach the send command.
An account with no address fails the build rather than producing a message
with an empty From. Config::account() returns a default-constructed Account
for an unknown key rather than failing, so without that guard a bad key
would produce silently malformed mail.

toInt() and toLongLong() return 0 on failure rather than the default, so a
typo in autosave_interval_ms produced a zero-interval timer. That timer is
restarted on every keystroke, so it would fire on the next event-loop pass
and turn a 30 second debounce into a Maildir write per keystroke, each one
uploaded by mbsync: exactly the behaviour the debounce exists to prevent.
This file already had the right shape in five places, a checked parse that
reports the bad value and keeps the default. The [compose] keys were the
only numerics skipping it. The interval is also clamped, since nothing
assigns a meaning to a zero or negative autosave.
quote_position now warns on an unrecognised value, matching sync_on_exit,
language and date_format; the only silent fallbacks in this file are for
absent keys rather than malformed ones. And a missing `sent` folder is a
notice rather than a problem, because the spec blesses that configuration
and a modal on every launch for a permanently correct setup is how users
learn to dismiss dialogs unread.

DraftStore needs the same filename generation moveMessages() already has,
and duplicating it would duplicate a correctness property rather than a
convenience: the comment records that carrying mbsync's ,U= infix across a
folder boundary produced 'Maildir error: duplicate UID' on real mail.
A pure move with no behaviour change, committed on its own so a bisect can
tell it apart from the feature that needed it. The function gains its own
tests, including the UID-infix case that previously had none.

The header still credited CMARK_OPT_SAFE after the .cpp comment and the test
were corrected, which left the wrong mechanism named in the file
MessageBuilder's author will actually read.
Three test weaknesses, each measured rather than assumed. The accented-text
test survived a SYMMETRIC latin-1 mutation, since the round trip cancels for
codepoints under U+0100, so it now carries a character latin-1 cannot
represent. The tasklist test asserted on the bare word "checked", which
ordinary prose would satisfy, and now asserts the attribute. And the
extension registration is wrapped in a function-local static: cmark-gfm's
registry has no once-guard, and this project has a worker thread, so the
first call racing itself would tear the registry rather than crash cleanly.

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.

CMARK_OPT_SAFE has had no effect since cmark-gfm made safe mode the
default; the flag is retained for API compatibility and the real
protection is that CMARK_OPT_UNSAFE is never set. Measured against
0.29.0.gfm.13: rendering with OPT_DEFAULT alone, with OPT_SAFE, and with
OPT_UNSAFE shows the first two suppress a script element and a
javascript: link while the third leaks both.
The comment credited the flag, which would have sent the next reader to
the wrong place, and the test could not tell the two apart: it would
have passed just as well with the flag deleted. What it has to guard
against is OPT_UNSAFE being introduced, so it now also asserts that
unsafe links are stripped, which is a protection this gets for free and
previously asserted nothing about.

The composer's body is markdown and the text/html part is generated from it.
cmark-gfm rather than plain cmark for autolink: under CommonMark a bare URL
in a mail body is not a link, and in mail it is expected to be clickable.
Three extensions are enabled and tables are deliberately not, since they
render badly across mail clients whoever generates them. Raw HTML in the
input is suppressed with CMARK_OPT_SAFE: the body is the user's own text,
but a body that can inject markup into its own generated HTML part is a
sharp edge with no upside.
The build needs TWO lookups. Only the core library ships a pkg-config file;
libcmark-gfm-extensions has none and is located with find_library, the way
notmuch already is. All three extensions live in that second library, so
finding only the first produces a build that compiles and silently renders
plain CommonMark.

The status bar's sync bar was a bare QProgressBar configured inline in
MainWindow, and item 123's send popup needs the same thing again. It also
needs the half MainWindow does not use: the popup drains a determinate bar
through its cancellable countdown and switches THE SAME widget to
indeterminate when send_command starts and the duration stops being
knowable. Building that inline a second time is what this removes.
BusyIndicator carries both modes. setBusy() resets the range as well as the
visibility, so the switch out of the countdown cannot leave the bar drawing
its last fraction, and setProgress() treats a total of zero as busy rather
than passing it through: setRange(0, 0) IS the indeterminate range, so a
zero total would otherwise hand the caller an animating bar while it
believed it had drawn an empty one.
Only the bar is extracted, not the status label the backlog row mentions
beside it. m_statusLabel has 34 uses across MainWindow for transient
messages, selection counts and sync phases; it belongs to the window rather
than to the indicator, and the send popup owns its own phase text.
The hidden-on-construction test needs a shown parent, which cost a mutation
to find. Measured against a standalone Qt program: a parentless widget
reports isVisible() false and isHidden() true whether or not hide() was ever
called, so both obvious assertions passed against a constructor with the
hide() deleted. What differs is WA_WState_ExplicitShowHide, and the
behaviour it produces appears only once a parent is shown, which is how the
status bar holds this widget.
All five mutations checked and killed: the zero-total guard, the range reset
in setBusy(), the value clamp, the show() in setProgress() and the hide() in
the constructor.

Reported by hand after the item 127 fix: right-clicking a link still
offered Save link.
It had been deferred to item 114 alongside Save image, on the grounds that
both are inert without a downloadRequested handler. That is true and it was
the wrong conclusion, because the two are not the same question.
Save image is content the message already carries, and item 114 is about
making it work. Save link fetches a remote URL chosen by the sender,
through the pane's profile, which is the one profile in this application
that must never fetch remote content: that is what m_allowRemote and the
interceptor exist to prevent. Answering it with a download handler would
put a network fetch of attacker-controlled content behind one context-menu
entry.
Saving what the user actually wants already has a path that never touches
the network: saveAttachment(), which writes a MIME part already parsed into
memory and sanitises the filename.
So it is removed rather than implemented, and the test asserts its absence.
Item 114 now carries the constraint that follows: a downloadRequested
handler added to make Save image work must not make Save link reachable
again, which the natural per-profile implementation would do by default.
Mutation checked: dropping the entry from the filter fails the test with
"a link action survived: Save link".

Items 126 and 127, in one sitting because the second is only safe after
the first.
126: an anchor carrying target="_blank" did nothing when clicked, with no
error and nothing on screen. Chromium routes such a click to
QWebEnginePage::createWindow() rather than to acceptNavigationRequest, and
MessagePage did not override it, so the base implementation returned
nullptr and the URL was discarded before any of our code saw it. Plain
anchors were unaffected and already worked, which is why this presented as
"HTML mail is broken" while a text mail's links opened: marketing HTML sets
_blank on practically every anchor.
createWindow() receives a WebWindowType and no URL, so an override cannot
simply read the target: it arrives afterwards as a navigation on whatever
page is returned. LinkRelayPage is that page. It has no view, hands the URL
to the same handler the plain-link path uses, refuses the navigation, and
deletes itself. Nothing is ever fetched and no second QWebEngineView is
created.
127: OpenLinkInNewTab, OpenLinkInNewWindow and OpenLinkInThisWindow join
removeBrowserActions()'s list. Item 100's list is the PAGE actions and was
tested by right-clicking the page; these appear only over a link, so it
never saw them. CopyLinkToClipboard stays, being the fallback for any link
that will not open. The order matters: 126 gives the page a working
createWindow(), so those entries would have stopped being dead and started
opening links into a tab that does not exist.
Testing needed two seams. The click cannot be synthesised, since JavaScript
is off in this profile (measured: runJavaScript returns an invalid QVariant)
and a synthetic press would depend on the anchor's rect and the desktop's
fonts; setUrl() is no substitute because it arrives as NavigationTypeTyped.
clickLinkForTest() and relayBlankTargetForTest() drive the real overrides on
the real page, and setLinkOpener() substitutes a recorder for
QDesktopServices::openUrl.
Both routes are asserted rather than only the broken one, since they share a
handler now. Three mutations checked and caught, including the filter also
removing CopyLinkToClipboard, which a later sweep of "dead link actions"
would otherwise take silently.

notmuch can be configured with `mail_root` and `path` as separate keys,
which puts the Xapian index outside the Maildir. Under that layout
notmuch_database_get_path() returns the INDEX directory, and the worker
treated it as the mail root at four sites.
The consequences are not symmetric. Message paths resolved to `../..`
escapes that match no account prefix, which is a display defect. But
moveMessages() composes its destination from the same root, so Delete
would have written into the Xapian tree: outside the Maildir, invisible
to mbsync, and gone from every other client. That is the stranded-mail
failure of item 103 with a new cause.
notmuch_config_get(NOTMUCH_CONFIG_MAIL_ROOT) is correct under both
layouts, so no conditional is needed. Verified against the live database:
with only `path` set it returns the same string as get_path(), making
this a no-op for the current configuration.
The fixture gains an opt-in splitIndex(). That is load-bearing rather
than convenience: in the ordinary layout the index lives inside the mail
root and both accessors return the same string, so a test written
against it passes whichever one the code uses. All three new tests fail
against the old accessor, confirmed by mutation.
Also records the finding as backlog item 124, and corrects item 121's
timings, which had been copied from item 74 rather than measured. A cold
run seven minutes after boot, with the index verifiably unread, gives
2008 ms to the first rows and 38618 ms to a complete list, against the
642 ms and 5714 ms recorded there.

The user's preference after seeing item 115 ship: a small transient in the
bottom right of the pane with a checkmark, rather than a status bar message at
the far end of the window. A copy happens in the pane, so the confirmation
belongs there.
Three properties are load-bearing and each has a mutation that fails. The toast
is a hand-placed CHILD rather than a layout item, because it floats over the
message instead of taking a strip away from it: nothing reflows when it appears
and the text just copied does not jump. That is why resizeEvent() is overridden,
since a hand-placed child does not follow its parent. It is autoFillBackground
and painted from the theme's ToolTipBase/ToolTipText, so it stays readable over
a rendered message and follows the desktop theme the way the document already
does. And its timer is restarted rather than started, so a second copy gets its
own full reading time instead of inheriting what is left of the first.
The resize test was wrong on its first draft and passed against the mutation it
exists to catch. It grew the pane, which moves the right and bottom edges away,
so a toast left at its old position still satisfied "inside the pane"; measured
green with the reposition deleted. It shrinks now, where a stale position lands
outside the new rect, which is also what the user would see.
No new strings: the four messages are unchanged, only where they appear.

mbsync's manual, under "the more efficient default UID mapping scheme": "it is
important that the MUA renames files when moving them between Maildir folders",
and "the general expectation is that a completely new filename is generated as
if the message was new".
qtmaildir is that MUA and did not rename. moveMessages() kept
QFileInfo(from).fileName() verbatim, `,U=<n>` included. That infix is mbsync's
per-folder IMAP UID, so carrying it across a folder boundary makes it a claim
about a folder the file is no longer in; moving a message out and back then
reinserts a UID the server has since reassigned. Reported by the user as
`Maildir error: duplicate UID 1`, and measured on the real Maildir: four
collisions in one folder, eight distinct messages, none lost.
freshMaildirName() regenerates the unique part and keeps ONLY the `:2,<flags>`
suffix. Keeping the flags is not a contradiction of "as if the message was new":
they record seen, flagged and replied, and maildir.synchronize_flags is true, so
dropping them would mark every deleted message unread and lose Important on the
way to the trash.
Two things fell out of the change and both were defects waiting to happen. The
already-in-the-destination guard compared full PATHS, which worked only because
the name was carried across; with a fresh name it can never be true, so a
message already in the destination would be renamed on every move. It compares
directories now. And test_mainwindow's folderHasMessageFile() matched on the
filename stem, so all fifty-odd assertions using it began reporting "the file is
not there" about files that were there. It reads the Message-ID out of each file
instead, which is what those assertions always meant.
Three mutations fail: the old name carried across, the flags dropped, and the
uniqueness counter frozen so two messages moved in one batch collide.

Items 115 and 117, both from the user's notes.
Select all was never in Chromium's menu for this pane, measured by hand with a
selection active and against a build with removeBrowserActions() reverted, so
the filter is not what removed it. MessageView::addPaneActions() supplies it,
static and taking the menu, mirroring removeBrowserActions() beside it. Two
comments claiming the standard menu already offered it are corrected; either
would have sent the next reader down the same three wrong theories the item
records.
The copy entries all worked and none of them said so. Four now report through
the pane's existing statusMessage, each naming what it copied rather than saying
"Copied", which is the item's own constraint when three of them sit together in
one menu. Connected to the page's own QActions, so the report follows the entry
wherever it is triggered from.
The two differ in what can be tested, and the tests say so rather than papering
over it. The copy path is fully covered: triggering the action runs the
production path, and mutations for a duplicated message and an unwired entry
both fail. addPaneActions() is covered, but showBodyContextMenu() CALLING it is
not and cannot be, since createStandardContextMenu() returns nothing outside a
real context-menu event; a mutation deleting that call leaves the suite green,
measured. The call site is a hand test and the test file records that so nobody
adds an assertion that appears to cover it.
The copy strings are QT_TR_NOOP inside an array, which CLAUDE.md warns extracts
nothing at file scope. Verified rather than assumed: lupdate found all four
under the MessageView context, because the array sits inside a member function.
387 finished, 0 unfinished.

Reported from a hand test: Restore moved the message correctly and the row it
came from sat in the trash list until the Trash filter was clicked again.
The trash view is path-based, so a restored message stops matching the query
the list was built from. That is a state no tag change can express, and nothing
in onMessagesMoved() removes a row, deliberately: in an ordinary view a deleted
message's card should stay put, since one deleted message does not doom the
conversation.
refreshCurrentQuery(), not runCurrentQuery(). The refresh runs immediately
after the undo entry is pushed, and re-running the query outright clears the
undo stack, which would make Restore the one mutation in the window with no way
back. Gated on isShowingTrash() rather than on the destination, because a
Delete is a move too and reaches the same slot.
Three tests, each catching a different mutation: the row leaves, undo survives
the refresh and still moves the file back, and a delete outside the trash view
leaves its row alone.
The third one was wrong on its first draft and passed against the mutation it
existed to catch. It used a `tag:inbox` view, which looks ordinary but which a
deleted message keeps matching, since Delete adds `deleted` and the origin tag
and removes nothing. A path query on the inbox folder is the honest instrument:
the file really leaves, so the row survives only because nothing refreshed.

Every version before item 103 tagged a message `deleted` and left its file
exactly where it was, so deleted mail accumulated in the inboxes with only a
chip to say otherwise. `Find stranded deleted mail` runs the query that finds
it: tagged `deleted`, and not inside any configured trash folder.
It reports and moves nothing. Acting on its own would be a bulk delete with no
selection behind it, and the user asked for something they could come back to
and review. Repeatable rather than a startup migration, for the same reason:
mail reaches this state again whenever another client tags without moving.
A menu entry only, at the user's request, so it cannot be confused with the
Trash filter beside the other four.
Also adds everyActionIsReachableFromAMenu(), which asserts the fifth
registration site nothing enforced. CLAUDE.md documents four places; a menu is
the fifth, and `restore` shipped on this branch reachable by a chord and by
nothing a user could see. The new test found three more of the same:
open_thread, clear_pane and clear_selection were all keyboard-only. All three
now sit in the View menu.

Del is the key a user reaches for and Ctrl+D is not a guess anyone makes.
Both are bound; Del is listed FIRST because that is the one the menus
advertise.
Bare, which is safe here for a reason that does not generalise to other
bare keys. A QAction shortcut is dispatched before the focused widget sees
the key, and Qt withholds only plain LETTERS from editable widgets, so by
the argument that made bare Return break the query bar this should delete
mail while the user edits a query. It does not: QLineEdit accepts the
ShortcutOverride for Delete itself, because Delete is one of its own
editing keys, which Return is not. Measured with and without an explicit
filter, the action fires 0 times either way, so no filter is added.
theDeleteKeyEditsTextInTheQueryBar() pins that Qt behaviour, since the
binding rests on it.
**Two defects surfaced from the second binding, both real.**
An action can now have more than one default, and KeyMap did not allow for
it. sequenceFor() decided "is this a built-in?" by comparing against
defaultSequenceFor(), which returns only the FIRST default, so the second
looked like a user override and won the "a user binding beats the default"
rule. The menus advertised Ctrl+D to a user who had configured nothing, and
sequenceFor() and defaultSequenceFor() disagreed about an untouched action.
isDefaultBinding() asks whether a sequence is ANY of the action's defaults;
when two defaults tie, the one defaultBindings() lists first wins, which is
the author's stated preference rather than an alphabetical accident.
And Restore read each message's origin tag FROM THE MODEL. The model's tags
come from the query, so a row whose delete has not been re-queried still
carries its pre-delete tags: measured `[inbox,unread]` on a message already
sitting in the trash, one run in three. No origin tag was found, the
message took the no-origin branch, and Restore moved it to the INBOX
instead of the folder it came from, silently, with the origin tag left
behind as the only evidence. A restore has to be right about the
destination or it is worse than doing nothing.
The trash-view Restore now resolves its messages against the DATABASE
first, through a new NotmuchWorker::resolveMessages(). That and
resolveThreadMessages() share one walk, resolveQuery(), rather than
growing a near-duplicate: they differ only in whether the terms are `id:`
or `thread:`. restoreSelectedThreads() already worked this way; this is the
same reasoning applied to the message-scoped path.
The flake was found by running one test five times rather than trusting a
single green, and the fix verified the same way: 5 of 5, then the full
suite three times over.

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.

Item 103's implementation was committed unreviewed and never hand-tested.
Reviewing it, and then hand-testing it against real mail, found seven
defects. Six of them lose or corrupt state and none was caught by the
suite, which was green throughout.
**Undo pushed a command instead of consuming one.** onMessagesMoved()
pushed a MoveCommand for every confirmed move, including the move an undo
had just made, so undoText went "Delete", "Undo Delete", "Undo Undo
Delete". A second press of undo re-deleted the message the first had
rescued. PendingMove carries a fromUndo flag, which has to survive the
queued round trip and so cannot be a window-wide "am I undoing" flag.
**Held moves were invisible to the quit guard.** pendingEditCount() summed
the held tag edits and not the held moves, so a Delete pressed during a
sync left the count at zero: the indicator stayed hidden and closeEvent()'s
guard never fired, discarding the move on quit with no prompt. That is item
106's data loss with a worse shape, because a dropped move leaves the file
in the folder the user asked it out of.
**Two moves to one folder dropped the second's tags.** m_pendingMoves was
keyed on the destination, so two Deletes in one account before the first
confirmation both named `acct/Trash` and the second insert overwrote the
first. That file reached the trash carrying neither `deleted` nor
`deleted-from:`, unrestorable and invisible to a `tag:deleted` query. It is
a FIFO now: the worker moves one batch at a time and emits in request
order, so position alone matches a confirmation to its request.
**Second Delete left the origin tag behind.** The restore passed the origin
PLACEHOLDER in its removal list, and onMessagesMoved() resolves that from
the folder the worker reports, which on a restore is the trash. It asked to
remove `deleted-from:Trash`, a tag never written, while the real
`deleted-from:inbox` was never named. A restore does not need the
placeholder: it already read the origin to decide where to send the file.
originTagFor() is now the one derivation both sides use.
**Ctrl+Z left it behind too**, for a different reason: MoveCommand was
constructed with the unresolved pending.add. The command carries the
resolved tags now, and is pushed per origin group rather than once per
batch, because the placeholder resolves to a different tag per origin.
**A thread root re-deleted itself.** everySelectedRowHasTag() asked a
thread row about its THREAD's tags, which notmuch gives as a union. Delete
the root of a three-message thread and the replies are untouched, so the
union carries no `deleted` and a second press ran Delete again: the message
moved trash-to-trash and came out with `deleted`, `deleted-from:inbox` AND
`deleted-from:Trash`, with no way back. The union was a documented
approximation, called bounded because the worst case for a TAG toggle was
re-applying a tag the message already had. A MOVE re-applies the move.
Resolved through messageById(), NOT through ThreadSummary::firstMessageTags,
which is the value the query delivered and is never refreshed by an
optimistic update: after a delete the node reads `deleted` while the
summary still reads `unread`.
**Delete thread never moved anything.** It was left calling tagSelected()
when Delete became a move, so a whole conversation sat in the inbox wearing
a `deleted` chip. It moves every message now, each with its own origin, so
a thread spanning folders reassembles on restore. A reply row resolves to
its own thread through selectedThreadIds(): scopeFor() reports a reply
under messageIds and leaves threadIds empty, which made a thread action on
a reply row do nothing at all.
**And the root card did not repaint** until it was clicked, while its
replies did. sendMove() had no optimistic update at all, so nothing moved
until the worker answered; and applyMessageTagChange() deliberately leaves
a multi-message thread's SUMMARY alone, which is correct for a one-message
edit and wrong for a thread-scoped one. The replies have nodes and
repainted; the root card reads the summary. The thread paths repaint
synchronously with applyTagChange() before the worker is asked, which also
keeps the toggle's direction readable for the next press.
Every fix carries a test and every test was mutation-checked. Three false
greens were found while writing them and are recorded at their assertions:
a disjunction that emptied on the wrong term, a QTRY_VERIFY(rowCount() == 0)
satisfied by the interval before the worker answers, and a query issued
before the confirming write had landed. Absence is asked of notmuch
directly through a new notmuchCount() helper for that reason.
Two bare-window tests moved off assertions about synchronous pending writes
onto the model, since the thread actions now round-trip through the worker.

Delete thread MOVES every message now, and a move needs message ids and
file paths that the UI does not hold: a thread the user never expanded has
no nodes in the model for its replies, so those live only in the database.
resolveThreadMessages() answers with both, in one combined query, for the
same reason applyTagsToThreads() resolves threads here rather than in the
UI: a query per thread reopens the same Xapian cursor once per selected
row.
Paths come back RELATIVE to the database root, matching
ThreadSummary::firstMessagePath, because the UI knows accounts only by
their maildir, itself a database-relative prefix. Without them the caller
would know which messages to move and not where any of them belongs.
Tags come back too, because Restore reads a message's `deleted-from:` tag
to decide where to send it and an unexpanded thread's messages have no node
to read tags from.
They are joined by a TAB, not a space. A notmuch tag may absolutely contain
a space: the folder "Inbox/SlackBuilds users" produces
`deleted-from:Inbox/SlackBuilds users`, and splitting that on spaces
truncated the folder to "Inbox/SlackBuilds". Restore then moved the
messages into a folder of that name, CREATING it, so real messages ended up
in a directory mbsync does not sync and read as missing. Under `Create
Both` that folder can propagate to the mail server. A tab cannot appear in
a tag, since notmuch's own dump format is line-based and
whitespace-delimited.

validateTagName() ran on the removal list as well as the addition list, so
a tag whose name contains a space could be seen on a message and never
deleted: the one dialog that could clear it refused the only text that
names it, and it did so with a modal warning, so the dialog would not even
close.
Whether a tag SHOULD exist is a separate question from whether the user may
delete one that already does, and the answer to the second is always yes.
Validation now runs on additions only, which is where the rule earns its
keep: it stops a troublesome name being created.
Reached by a real Maildir folder named "Inbox/SlackBuilds users", whose
origin tag carried the space through. Only the TYPED route was ever
blocked; unchecking the tag in the list appends to the removal list after
validation has run and worked throughout. The test asserts both routes for
that reason, and asserts that ADDING a spaced tag is still refused, since
the fix must not weaken the rule it narrows.
The natural mutation for this test hangs rather than fails: restoring the
validation raises a modal warning with nothing to dismiss it. The test
avoids calling accept() on the add-rejection case and asks the validator
directly, and the mutation check drops the tag silently instead.

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.

The first mutation here that is not a notmuch tag. Indexes the new path
before dropping the old one, since removing the last filename for a
message id deletes the database entry and every tag on it.
