The trash key is mandatory: Delete moves a file into it, so an
account without one cannot delete at all. Report it as a config
problem naming the account and the key, rather than degrading
Delete silently, per the existing "a warning the user cannot act on
teaches them to ignore warnings" rule (item 83).
Several existing test fixtures loaded accounts with no trash key and
asserted zero problems/warnings; added trash=Trash to those where it
was incidental to what the test actually covers.

The `note` field explains why a rule is shaped the way it is, and it was
reachable only by selecting the rule and reading the editor form, which is the
wrong way round for the one field that says what a rule is for.
Note is the LAST column, after Matches, at the user's request: a note is prose
and the widest thing in the table, so it belongs where it can run on without
pushing the narrow columns off screen. That is fiddlier than it looks, because
"Matches" is not in the Column enum at all: it is appended past the end at
index ColumnCount. Note therefore has to be declared before ColumnCount and
still draw after it, and setColumnCount takes a new ColumnTotal rather than
ColumnCount + 1. Both columns hold text, so a mix-up puts the counts under
Note and looks entirely plausible; the test asserts the counts land under
Matches as well as asserting the header order, since the header assertion
alone passes with the two swapped.
The cell is simplified(), because a note is free text and a newline truncates
a tree row at it. The full text is the cell's tooltip and is untouched in the
editor.
Also fixes a defect found on the way, which is not in the backlog entry.
QHeaderView::restoreState REFUSES a state saved with a different column count,
returning false and leaving the header untouched, which is what every existing
uistate.conf now does. The restore path set m_columnsSized and
m_countColumnSized regardless, spending the one auto-size each column gets on
a restore that did nothing: the new Note column would have opened at its
default width, once, permanently. Now guarded on the return value. Upgrading
costs one reset of this dialog's column widths, which is unavoidable, since
the saved state genuinely describes a table that no longer exists.
Backlog item 102.

The pane's context menu started from QWebEngineView::createStandardContextMenu()
and kept it whole, so it offered Back, Forward, Reload and Save page. None of
them can apply: every message is rendered with setHtml() from memory, so there
is no history to go back to and nothing to reload, and the request interceptor
blocks everything by default. They were inert as well as meaningless.
removeBrowserActions() matches on the QAction pointer returned by
page->action(), never on the entry's text, which is translated: a text match
would work in English and fail in every other locale, which is a defect no
test written in English would catch. Removing entries also strands separators
at the edges or doubles them up, which reads as a menu that lost something, so
the filter sweeps them; Qt offers nothing for this.
View source is deliberately NOT filtered. It was removed with the other four
at first, which was an overreach: the user asked for four and view-source has
a real document and a real use. Chromium's own entry cannot work here either,
since it navigates to view-source:<url> and MessagePage refuses that, so
backlog item 113 implements it as our own plain-text dialog.
The test builds a menu by hand, which is right for testing the filter and
proves nothing about what Chromium's real menu contains. That limit is stated
at the test, and is why it does not assert on SelectAll: the real menu has
never offered it, verified by hand against a build with this filter reverted
(backlog item 117).

The `flag` action only ever added the `flagged` tag, so pressing Ctrl+I on a
thread or message that was already important re-applied a tag it already had.
Re-applying a tag changes nothing and repaints nothing, so the key read as
dead, and removing `flagged` meant opening the tag dialog.
It now reads the current state and picks a direction, exactly as `delete` and
`toggle_unread` beside it do. One direction is chosen for the whole selection:
it unmarks only when every selected row is already important, so a single
keystroke cannot leave a selection in two states.
The direction comes from everySelectedRowHasTag(), never a hand-rolled loop.
Two separate bugs went into that helper on 2026-08-16 (items 88 and 105), and
a copy of the then-current `delete` loop would have inherited both: resolving
a reply's row number against the top-level list, and asking a reply's THREAD
where the write is message-scoped, which makes a toggle one-way.
The reply test needs THREE different states to mean anything: the first thread
in the list unflagged, the reply's own thread flagged, and the reply itself
unflagged. With the reply left in its thread's state, the mutation putting
item 105's bug back stayed green, measured. The fixture helper defaults
replyTags to the thread's, so a test that does not pass them explicitly
asserts nothing about scope.
Backlog item 98.

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.

Double-clicking any row drills into its thread: the list becomes that thread
alone, expanded, and the pane shows the double-clicked row's own message. A
reply therefore opens its WHOLE thread with itself selected, never itself alone,
which is what the user asked for and is not the obvious reading of "open it by
itself".
This is recoverStaleThread() triggered by a gesture. That function already ran
thread:<id>, expanded the thread when the row arrived, selected the target
message once the replies landed, and fell back to the root when the message had
gone; all three cases are existing paths through it, so the new code resolves a
row to a thread id and a message id and hands both over.
The row is reached through the INDEX and never through index.row(): a tree
numbers rows per parent, so threadAt(row) on a reply answers about an unrelated
thread. That is item 88's trap, avoided here by construction.
The first click of a double-click arms the mark-read timer, and the handler
cancels it, because a gesture that navigates must not mutate mail. The timer is
armed again for whichever row the recovery lands on, so only the arming for the
row being left is cancelled. Its test asserts the timer was active beforehand,
so it cannot pass by the timer never having been armed at all.
The expander keeps its own double-click: ThreadListView::mousePressEvent accepts
a press inside its rect and returns, so Qt never pairs one into a double-click
there.
Nothing is built for getting back. The filter buttons already are that, per the
user.

An edit made while a sync is running is held rather than sent, because the
worker's read-write open blocks on notmuch's exclusive lock. At sync end
onExternalSyncStateChanged() refreshed the list first and flushed the held
edits afterwards, so the refresh read a database that still carried the old
tag, reconciled it into the model, and overwrote the optimistic update the hold
had deliberately left applied. The flush then wrote the tag correctly.
The database ended up right and the list ended up wrong, with nothing scheduled
to re-read it, which is why it looked like the edit had been lost. Reported by
hand: a message read during a sync went back to unread when the sync finished.
The flush moves ahead of the refresh and keeps both properties it already had.
It stays outside the Idle branch, so edits held when /proc/locks becomes
unreadable are not stranded waiting for an Idle that never comes, and it stays
after the status-bar retire, so its own "N held changes sent" message survives.
Both orders leave identical end state, so the first version of the test passed
against the defect: after the handler returns the queue is empty and the write
has been sent whichever ran first. flushGenerationForTesting() stamps the query
generation at flush time, which is what separates them, and the test fails
against the old order with Actual: 3, Expected: 2.

runAutoSync() returned without rescheduling when a sync was already in flight.
The comment defending it argued the edits were not lost, because they reached
the mail store at edit time and the running sync was "very likely" to carry
them. Very likely is not always: an edit made after mbsync has already passed
that account's mailbox is not carried by it, the timer had fired, nothing
re-armed it, and the pending count sat non-zero until a manual sync or the next
cron run.
Skipping is unchanged and still required by item 71: the cron job holds the same
lock and mbsync fails on a second concurrent run. What changes is that the skip
schedules another attempt. scheduleAutoSync() re-checks the delay, the sync
command and the pending count on the way in, so this cannot arm a sync for
nothing, and against a long external sync it re-arms once per debounce interval,
which is a timer rather than a sync.
The test fires the timer by hand and asserts it is active again afterwards, at
the configured interval rather than a shorter one, with the pending indicator
still showing. It fails against the old skip path.
Item 89's other half is dropped rather than built. The list churn it described
is a tag-defined view working as intended: a thread that loses `unread` leaves
the Unread view, and the user resolved it by living in the Inbox view instead.
Three designs were drafted before asking and none is worth building.

Running a query blanks the message pane but left m_currentThreadId,
m_currentMessageId and m_currentMessageThreadId naming the thread that had
been showing. Both selection handlers compare a newly selected row against
those to decide whether it is already on display, so a result containing that
same thread was recognised as "already showing" and onThreadSelected() was
never called. The card painted as selected, the status bar reported one
thread, and the pane stayed on the placeholder.
This is why it looked like an `id:` query defect. The id is copied out of the
details dialog of the message being read, so that thread is current at the
moment the query replaces the view. Any query returning a different thread
hides the fault entirely.
Filed as the unverified half of item 66 and assumed to be the same
empty-MessageIdRole failure. It is not: 66's fix was correct and this
reproduced against it, so it is recorded as item 96. Four hypotheses were
eliminated by measurement first: the row does carry the message id, the
account-scoped query does return it, MimeParser parses the reported message
(ok, 40701 bytes of HTML), and both real ids resolve bare and quoted.
The regression test's first query must open the SAME thread the second one
returns; with two different threads it passes against the defect, which is how
the first version of it was green. Reverting the fix fails it.

The four filter buttons gave no sign of which one you were looking at, so
the row said what you could do and never where you were.
The active filter is drawn as a checked QToolButton, which lets the style
paint its own pressed look: a hand-picked highlight colour would have to be
picked once per theme and would still be wrong under a third.
The check state is derived from the query TEXT rather than from the last
button clicked, which is the whole design decision. A record of what was
pressed goes on lying the moment the query is edited into something else,
where a highlight that follows the query clears itself and lights again
when a filter's query is typed by hand. It is resolved against the account
box, so changing account recomputes it rather than dropping it: the same
filter under two accounts is two different query strings and both are
still "Inbox".
Buttons are held in a hash keyed by generator, cleared at the top of the
row build because the row is rebuilt wholesale on every saved-query edit
and stale entries would dangle. The connections are owned by the row
widget, so a rebuild takes them with it rather than leaving a second copy
firing at deleted buttons.
Unread opens already highlighted, which is correct rather than incidental:
startup_query defaults to it, so the window opens on that view. The test
asserts it, so the assertions that follow are known to be a change of
state rather than a button that happened to start unchecked.
Mutation checked against the design that was rejected: deriving the state
from the click instead of the query fails all three tests, each naming the
behaviour it protects.

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

Nothing loaded a translation before this: no QTranslator, no .ts file and
no build rule, so every string was English whatever the locale said. The
language now comes from the environment, LANG=it_IT.UTF-8, and any other
locale runs in English as before.
The audit found that the tr() discipline was largely holding, and found
eight strings that could never be translated into any language. kFields[]
in tagrulesdialog.cpp declared the rule-builder field labels with
QT_TR_NOOP inside an anonymous namespace, where lupdate reports "tr()
cannot be called without context" and extracts nothing, while the use site
calls TagRulesDialog::tr() on them at runtime. From, To, Cc, Subject, Tag,
Folder, Attachment and Date: the whole vocabulary of the rule builder,
absent from every translation file that could ever exist. The source
compiles and reads correctly; only lupdate reveals it.
Q_DECLARE_TR_FUNCTIONS is not the fix for that case, though it is the fix
for a free function calling tr(). Measured against lupdate: a class
carrying the macro beside the array still extracts 0 strings, because the
context must be attached to the literal itself. QT_TRANSLATE_NOOP names it
explicitly and matches the tr() that already reads them, so the use site
needed no change.
Twenty configuration and keybinding warnings were not translatable either.
They are user-facing, reaching the status label and the "Configuration
problems" dialog. Config already had the tr() macro; KeyMap needed it.
Translating the filter labels then broke startup_query, found in hand
testing: a filter's name is a translated label, so `startup_query = Inbox`
matched nothing where the filter shows as "In arrivo". The application
opened a different view and reported the user's own working config as
invalid. Resolution matches the generator as well now, which is stored in
queries.json and identical in every locale; the translated name still
works. The regression test installs a real QTranslator rather than a stub,
since the bug lives in the gap between the stored string and the displayed
one, and it writes a queries.json because the warning it asserts on is
guarded by a non-empty saved-query list: without one the branch never runs
and the test passes against a broken check.
main.cpp's --help and --version stay bare printf, as they run before
QApplication exists and no translator could serve them.
Verified per the backlog's own standard, that lupdate output is the
evidence rather than reading: 355 strings extracted with zero context
warnings, where before there were 327 with eight; lrelease reporting 355
finished and 0 unfinished; the built .qm loaded in a standalone probe
printing "From -> Da" and both Italian plural forms; and the install rule
placing it where main.cpp looks. test_translations guards it and was
mutation checked, failing on an emptied translation and naming the defect
when QT_TRANSLATE_NOOP is reverted.

Answers "start me in work - Inbox rather than All accounts - Inbox". The key
names an account by its [account.<key>] suffix and the dropdown is set to it
before the startup query runs; because a built-in filter composes with the
dropdown, that is the whole mechanism and the key never reaches a query
builder. Validated on load: a name matching no account is reported and cleared,
since the dropdown has no entry for it and would sit on All accounts without
saying why.
Which side applies the scope depends on what the startup entry is, and getting
it wrong is silent in both directions. A generated filter comes back from
resolvedQuery() already scoped, so letting runQuery() apply the dropdown again
gives path:"work/**" and (path:"work/**" and (tag:inbox)). A saved query does
not, because resolvedQuery() ignores the account key for one, so claiming it
was already scoped leaves it unscoped with the dropdown pointing at Work.
The first of those shipped in this session's working tree and passed its test,
because the assertion used contains() and the double-scoped string contains the
scope too. It asserts the exact query now. The second was found by writing the
test for the case rather than by reading, and is covered by
aStartupAccountAlsoScopesASavedStartupQuery.
The README's startup_query documentation was wrong on two counts after the
previous commit: the fallback is the Unread filter rather than the first query
in the file, and the name can now match a built-in filter.
|
|
Two defects, both reachable only after item 93.
startupSavedQuery() searched the saved queries alone, so a startup_query of
"Inbox" matched nothing once Inbox shipped as a built-in filter and the
duplicated entry was removed from queries.json. It then fell back to
m_savedQueries.first(), which is an arbitrary choice that used to look
reasonable while every install carried an Inbox entry: with the duplicates gone
it opened on a leftover search for one sender, and an empty queries.json opened
on nothing at all. The search now covers the saved queries first, so the user's
own entry wins a name collision, then the built-in filters; the fallback is the
Unread filter, which is always present.
The default startup name has always been "Unread" and now resolves for the
first time: before this it named nothing unless the user happened to have such
an entry.
The constructor also read startup.query directly, and a generated entry stores
no query at all, so even a matching filter opened an empty bar. It resolves
through Config::resolvedQuery() now, unscoped, since the account dropdown
starts on "All accounts".
Icons per the user's choices: a star for Important rather than the flag
action's own icon, since on the query row an icon reads as a category rather
than as an instruction, and mail-folder-sent rather than mail-sent.
Three tests changed rather than adapted, because their premises were the
defect. Two asserted the first-saved-query fallback.
aCronSyncDoesNotRefreshBeforeAnyQueryHasRun assumed a fresh window had run no
query, which is no longer true; it is now
aCronSyncRefreshesTheLastRunQueryNotTheQueryBar and asserts the property that
actually matters on a cron timer, through a new lastRunQueryForTesting() seam,
since a legitimate refresh bumps the generation and the counter cannot tell the
two apart.
|
|
Item 57 renamed the `flag` action to "Important" in 0.14.0, chosen over
"Starred" partly because &I was free where &S collided with Mark spam. Item 93
then shipped the filter for the same tag as "Flagged", so one window offered
both names for one thing. The generator keeps its own name, `flagged`: that
string is stored in queries.json and matched against a closed set, so it is
wire format rather than a label.
The filters are QToolButtons now, like the Save button at the other end of the
row, carrying a themed icon with the text beside it. Icon AND text for the
reason the Save button already records: this row is a row of text buttons, so
an icon alone reads as a different kind of control than it is. Theme icons
rather than the shipped SVGs in Marks, because item 70's split is that the
panes are ours and the chrome is the system's, and the query row is chrome.
mail-mark-important matches the `flag` action's own icon, since the filter
finds what the action marks.
The icon test asserts a NAME was requested rather than that the icon resolved:
QIcon::fromTheme returns null where no icon theme is installed, so isNull()
would fail for a reason unrelated to this code. Dropping the setIcon call fails
it.
Widening the buttons to QToolButton broke eleven tests that reached them
through findChild<QPushButton *>, which does not match a sibling type. The
helpers and the filter lookups take QAbstractButton; savedQueryButton() stays
on QPushButton, since the user's own queries really are those.
|
|
An unpinned query could not be run. Its menu action carried both a triggered
connection and a submenu of edit actions, and Qt does not emit triggered for an
action that owns a menu: clicking the entry only opened the submenu, so the
connection had never fired.
It shipped unnoticed because the menu was the rarely-used half while the user's
queries were pinned buttons. Item 93 moved every query into the menu, which is
how it surfaced, and item 94 makes the menu their only home, so this is now the
path that has to work.
Running is an item inside the submenu, first and above a separator, with the
edit actions below it. The entry keeps its submenu because an unpinned query
must still be editable and deletable.
The test asserts the Run item exists and is first, then that triggering it
reaches the query, then that Edit and Delete survived beside it. Restoring the
old wiring fails it on the first of those, naming the Qt behaviour rather than
just reporting a wrong query string.
|
|
Item 93, the UI half. Unread, Inbox, Flagged and Sent are buttons the
application ships, sitting first on the row, ahead of the user's pinned saved
queries.
runFilter() is runSavedQuery()'s opposite in the one way that matters: it READS
the account box and never writes it. That is item 90's defect. A filter narrows
what the user is already looking at, so the dropdown is its input rather than
something it resets on the way past. A saved query keeps setting the account
from what it stored, because it is a destination and states its own scope.
runQuery() gains an AccountScope parameter. A filter's text arrives already
resolved in the selected account's scope, and scoping it again would put
path:"work/Sent/**" inside path:"work/**".
Two migration changes, both of which unpin rather than delete:
- Sent is no longer migrated from the INI into queries.json. The built-in
filter covers it, and migrating one too would put two Sent buttons on the
row, one editable and one not.
- A stored entry naming a known generator is unpinned on load, which is what
every install upgraded through 0.19.0 carries. It keeps its name and its
generator and moves to the menu. Deleting it would be data loss on a file
whose readers are supposed to preserve what they do not own.
The test suite needed the same distinction the design makes.
savedQueryButtonLabels() now skips the filters, and savedQueryButton(window,
label) replaces five positional row->findChild<QPushButton *>() lookups that
were silently returning Unread.
One rendering probe had to be fixed rather than adapted.
replyRowsKeepTheirTextUnderTheThreadLine resized the window to 300px, and four
more buttons pushed the reply row below the viewport: the pixel loop then ran
zero times and reported "0 pixels, the row was painted over", which is a
different defect from the one it exists to catch. It gets 600px and a guard
asserting the row is really inside the viewport, so the next person to shrink
it gets told the truth. Verified by putting 300 back: the guard names the row
at 83..165 in an 82px viewport.
|
|
Item 93, the Config half. Four built-in filters, Unread, Inbox, Flagged and
Sent, as generated entries in kQueryGenerators, which was already a closed set
validated on load for Sent alone.
resolvedQuery() gains an overload taking an account key, and that is what makes
a filter compose with the account dropdown instead of fighting it. A generator
is asked for the account's OWN query rather than having its all-accounts query
wrapped in a scope: wrapping gives
path:"a/**" and (path:"a/Sent/**" or path:"b/Sent/**")
which returns the right rows only because path: is hierarchical, so a row-count
test passes against it. The tests assert on the query string for that reason,
and the mutation putting the wrap back fails two of them.
An ordinary saved query ignores the account key and keeps resolving through its
own stored account, which is the behaviour item 90 leaves alone.
matchNothingQuery() exists because an empty query means "match everything" to
notmuch: an account configuring no sent folder would otherwise give a button
labelled Sent that shows the entire Maildir.
Config gains Q_DECLARE_TR_FUNCTIONS for the filter names, which are button
labels. The generator names are not translated: they are matched against the
closed set and stored in queries.json, so translating them would make a file
written in one locale unreadable in another.
No UI yet, and no migration: the query row still builds from pinned saved
queries.
|
|
Item 74. runQuery() set the status bar once and only queryFinished cleared
it, so the bar kept claiming a query was running for the whole walk while
rows were visibly arriving behind it. Measured cold against a 1.1 GB index:
the first batch reaches the model at 642 ms and the walk finishes at 5714 ms,
so five seconds of a slow query read as a frozen one.
onThreadsReady now sets the bar from the model's own row count after each
batch, which is the number of rows the user can actually see. No timing
changes; this only stops the bar from lying.
The refresh branch returns before the new line, so a background refresh stays
silent exactly as onQueryFinished already keeps it. That silence has its own
test, which fails when the write is moved above the guard.
beginRefreshForTesting() is a new seam: refreshCurrentQuery() returns early
without a worker and a bare window has none, so a test cannot otherwise reach
the refresh path.

Reverts bde7409 and 66f1159. The user hit the worst possible symptom:
clicking one message marked a DIFFERENT, unrelated message read.
The cause is in markCurrentThreadRead, which reads
m_model->threadAt(current.row()). CLAUDE.md records this exact trap: a
tree numbers rows PER PARENT, so a reply's row() indexes its siblings
and threadAt() on it answers about an unrelated thread near the top of
the list. The guards then compared the right ids against the wrong
thread and let a write through for whatever message the timer's state
named.
That fault predates these commits, but they made it reachable and
harmful: while the write was thread-scoped the mismatch was mostly
masked, and scoping it to a single message turned it into "a random
message is now read".
Reverting rather than fixing forward. Marking the wrong mail read syncs
out to the server and cannot be undone from here, so the safe state is
the previous behaviour, which is too broad but predictable. The item 66
work in 4a4f82f stands: a thread root still renders one message.

Follows the message-scoped mark-read. The user reported the write going
out with nothing visible changing: the status bar counted an unsynced
edit while the card stayed bold and the message pane still showed the
`unread` tag, until the next query corrected it.
sendMessageTagChange made no optimistic model update on purpose, because
applyTagChange is keyed by THREAD and repainting a whole row for a
one-message edit would claim every reply had changed too. That trade is
right for an explicit tag edit and wrong for auto mark-read, where the
visible change IS the feature and the delay exists to deliver it.
ThreadListModel::applyMessageTagChange updates the message wherever it
is held, as a child row and as `first`, and lets the thread's summary
follow only when the answer is unambiguous: a thread reads as unread
while ANY message does, so the tag is cleared from the thread only when
no other message still carries it. For an unexpanded multi-message
thread the per-message tags are not loaded, so the summary is left for
the next query rather than guessed at.
Mutation checked: without the call the card holds `unread` for the full
timeout.

Reported by the user: selecting an unexpanded thread root marked every
message in the thread read, replies included. maildir.synchronize_flags
is on, so removing `unread` rewrites Maildir filenames and the next sync
carries it to the server: mail the user never saw stops being unread
everywhere.
This was coherent while a root click rendered the whole conversation,
because everything marked read had been displayed. Removing that view
made a root render one message and left the thread-wide write in place,
so the defect arrived with the previous commit.
markCurrentThreadRead now sends m_currentMessageId, which is what the
pane rendered, through sendMessageTagChange. The thread-level `unread`
guard is dropped with it: a thread carries `unread` while ANY message in
it is unread, so it would pass a read root under unread replies and send
a write for a message already read. Scheduling still checks it, which
keeps a fully-read thread from arming a timer.
The test asserts on which worker entry point the window used, because
reading tags back cannot answer this. Three earlier versions passed
against the unfixed code: TagsRole is empty for a message row by design,
MessageOwnTagsRole subtracts thread tags and drops marks so it can never
hold `unread`, and raw node tags are not refreshed until onTagsApplied
confirms, which lands after the assertion. Mutation checked.

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.

showWarnings() did two separable things and one of them could not be
reached from a test. It set the status label, which is harmless, and it
raised a QMessageBox from the MainWindow constructor, which under the
offscreen platform nothing can dismiss: the constructor never returned
and the suite hung with no output, reading as an infrastructure failure
rather than a test one.
It splits in two. applyWarnings() keeps the status label and stays in
the constructor. configProblems() returns the list, and main.cpp raises
the dialog after show(), which also gives it a visible parent to sit on.
The distinction between warnings and problems is preserved exactly: a
keybinding being ignored interrupts startup, "no sync command
configured" does not.
The warning path now has its first test, using the config shape that
caused the original hang. Mutation checked by putting the modal back in
the constructor: the test times out at 124 rather than failing, which is
the behaviour this removes.

Third entry in the message pane's submenus and in each details row,
greyed rather than hidden when the query bar is empty, so the feature
stays visible to someone exploring a fresh window.
requestSearch refuses an Exclude with no query as well, so the guard
does not rest on the menu's enabled state alone. Mutation checked:
disabling that condition fails the new test on the blocked emit.

The menus cannot read the query bar and must not. MainWindow already
watched textChanged for the Save button; the same lambda now also tells
MessageView, which passes it to the details dialog at construction,
where it cannot go stale.
Nothing consumes it yet.

Four signatures, no behaviour change: the two shipped operations map to
Replace and Narrow. runSearchFromPane becomes a switch and gains the
Exclude arm, which nothing can reach until the menu entry exists.
Seven call sites across three test files moved with it, two more than
the plan predicted: test_messageview and test_mainwindow also drive
these signals directly.
mainwindow.h and messagedetailsdialog.h now include searchterm.h for
the type; messageview.h already did.

Introduced alone, ahead of the four signatures that change to it, so

Parenthesises both sides, as extend() does: unparenthesised, a
disjunction in the query bar binds so the exclusion covers only its last
term and leaves the excluded mail on screen, with nothing reporting an
error.
An empty existing query returns empty rather than the addition alone,
which is where this deliberately differs from extend(). Excluding from
nothing means the whole Maildir minus one value; the menus will grey the
entry out and this is the second layer.

The connection is direct, so emitting first runs the query synchronously: the
model clears and the pane blanks while the modal dialog is still up, holding
the m_items it was built from. Closing first leaves no window in which the
dialog describes a thread the pane has already dropped.
|
|
The panes carry a finished query and know nothing of the query bar; the window
sets the field and calls the existing runner, so the account scope and the
generation counter keep working as they do for a typed query.
Narrowing combines here rather than in a pane, because only the window can see
what the bar currently holds. The tag strip's chips join the header, the body
selection and the details dialog as a fourth surface.
Also fixes the details dialog to actually close when a search is chosen: the
comment above the connection already described this requirement, but nothing
called accept() or reject(), so the dialog stayed open, the query ran behind
it, and the modal exec() never returned. This hung the whole test suite on
QT_QPA_PLATFORM=offscreen once a covering test was added.

A text box could not carry a per-value context menu without parsing displayed
text back into structure, and the user did not want a text box. Each row now
holds its own value, its message index and its query, built from the parsed
message.
Every value label states Qt::PlainText. The QPlainTextEdit this replaced was
plain by design rather than by style: header values come from strangers, and a
QLabel guesses the format under AutoText.
|
|
selectedText() reads the selection with no script injection; JavaScript stays
disabled in the profile. The page's standard menu is kept and the entries are
added to it below a separator.
The quoting is tested through a function taking the text, so it needs no live
web engine: a selection is arbitrary prose and can carry quotes, newlines and
query syntax, none of which notmuch reports as an error.
|
|
The menu lists what is searchable rather than hit-testing which line of a
rich-text label was clicked, which breaks as soon as the label wraps. The
values are collected by the pass that renders the header, so nothing parses
the markup back into structure.
From, To and Cc appear only for a single-message thread, sharing the condition
with the header's own display: a thread's recipient differs message to
message, and the menu must not offer what the header is not stating.
The test fixture's Date: header named the wrong weekday, which Qt::RFC2822Date
rejects outright, so no date offer would have been produced from it.
|
|
The loop was assigning a variable it never read, overwritten on every pass and
used only after, which reads as an accumulator and is not one. The overflow
chip's position is derived where it is used instead.
|
|
chipRectAt() is the single source of a chip's geometry, used by paintEvent and
by the hit test, so the drawn chip and the clickable chip cannot drift.
The +N chip yields nothing: it stands for a list of tags rather than one, so
there is no single value a search could be built from.
|
|
The date search needs it and the logic already existed inside a file-local
function, including the fix for Qt::RFC2822Date rejecting a string that
carries a trailing timezone comment. Extracted rather than rewritten, so the
second caller cannot end up without that fix.
|
|
One place for the query grammar behind every search surface, with no widget
involved so it is tested without a painter or a web engine.
extend() parenthesises both sides. The query bar may hold a hand-written
disjunction, and 'a or b AND c' binds as 'a or (b AND c)', which widens a
search meant to narrow it and reports nothing.
|

Right-click a stored saved query and the rules dialog opens on a new
rule carrying its query, with the tags left empty and focused. Generated
entries are excluded: their query is composed from the accounts, so a
rule made from one would freeze a snapshot that goes stale.

The dialog is non-modal and single-instance, so a second Create tagging
rule reaches one that is already up. Seeding it beats dropping the
request, which would read as a broken menu item.

The seed is a whole TagRule rather than a query string, so item 78 can
reuse the same path to seed from a sender. It is a pending edit like one
made with Add rule: appended, selected, Add tags focused, and written
only on Save.

A rule named "justeat orders" in the field labelled Name was written to
rules.json correctly and then dropped by every reader, because load()
required ^[a-z0-9][a-z0-9-]*$ and the save path validated nothing. The
rule stayed in the file, invisible in the dialog, never applied by the
post-new hook, and the next save from the dialog would have deleted it
outright.
The asymmetry was the defect, not the pattern. TagRules::validate() is
now the single predicate: the dialog refuses to save against it, and
load() uses it to repair rather than drop, so a rule that fails is
visible and fixable instead of silently discarded.
- The typed name is sanitised into an id when the field is committed,
so the field shows what will reach the file. uniqueId() suffixes a
collision, since sanitising is many-to-one and can manufacture the
duplicate that load() then drops.
- An already-legal id is never rewritten, including one like "a---b"
that sanitising would otherwise collapse. Rewriting valid ids would
churn a file mailctl also reads.
- A bad id loads repaired, with the warning kept: what is on disk is
not what the hook runs until the file is saved back.
Deliberately not mirrored into mailrules.py. The hook tags real mail
unattended every ten minutes, where silently renaming an id is worse
than dropping the rule; the file converges as soon as the dialog saves.
No format change, so no version bump and no two-repo commitment.
The load warning was not missing: it had been showing "1 rule could not
be read and was skipped" on every open, in the same font and colour as
the intro prose two lines above it, and read as more explanation. It is
now a red banner beside Save, with an icon and a dismiss button, and it
says the rules need attention rather than that they were skipped, which
is no longer true. Dismissal is per-appearance only; a persistent one
would re-hide the problem that went unnoticed for a session.
Both new dialog tests were confirmed to fail with the sanitiser
reverted, and the banner's styling, position and dismissal each fail
under mutation. 20 of 20 suites green, 34 tests in test_tagrules.
Closes item 83.

Saving a generated entry wrote `"query": ""` and `"flat": true` alongside its
generator. Both reload correctly, so nothing was broken, but queries.json is
meant to be hand-edited and each redundant key is one more thing to read past.
A generated entry has no query of its own, and the sent generator already
implies flat.
Written now only when they say something, which is the rule `pinned` and
`account` already followed: `query` is skipped for a generated entry in favour
of `generated`, and `flat` is skipped when the generator implies it.
Omitting `flat` is only safe because loadSavedQueries() reapplies it from the
generator, so the two are coupled: the mutation that stops reapplying it fails
this test and one other, in both suites. That is deliberate, since a round-trip
test can otherwise pass while quietly writing less than it reads.

Item 82. Saving a query worked and nothing else did: changing one field meant
retyping the whole query under the same name, and deleting one meant editing
the file by hand. An action that creates something the UI cannot then change or
remove is incomplete, and the user hit it within minutes of the first hand test.
Right-clicking a saved query, on its button or its menu entry, now offers Edit,
Move to menu / Show as a button, and Delete. Every path funnels through one
replaceSavedQuery(), which matches on the name the dialog was OPENED with rather
than the one it returns, so a rename replaces the entry instead of leaving the
original behind beside a new one, and which merges the stored entry's unknown
fields in a single place rather than in three. Delete confirms first: the rule
against confirmation dialogs covers tag mutations, which the undo stack can take
back, and this writes user config that it cannot.
Two cases the item did not anticipate. A generated entry has no query to edit,
so the dialog shows its composed query read-only rather than offering a field
that changes nothing, and carries `generated` and `flat` through an edit rather
than letting it decay into a plain entry holding a snapshot of what it resolved
to today. And the overwrite notice had to learn to ignore the entry being
edited, since warning that "Inbox" already exists while editing Inbox is noise.
This also fixes a defect that predated it and was already reachable from the
save path. rebuildSavedQueryRow() called deleteLater() on the old row, which
defers destruction to the event loop, so the stale row went on answering
findChild() and every lookup after a rebuild reported the state from before the
edit. Nothing looked wrong on screen, which is why it surfaced only as three
tests failing against a row that had in fact been rebuilt correctly.
Five tests, three mutations. Matching on the returned name fails two, never
writing the file fails three, and dropping the unknown-field merge fails one.
That last one initially proved nothing: it drove UNPIN, which copies the stored
entry and so carries `unknown` along by itself, and passed with the merge
deleted. It now goes through the edit path with a replacement that has none,
which is what the dialog actually returns.

The user asked whether the default queries could be unified with Sent. The
answer runs the other way: Sent joins the saved queries rather than the saved
queries becoming hardcoded.
Inbox, Unread and Important are complete strings that depend on nothing and can
never go stale, so generating them would buy nothing and would cost the four
things the file just gained: reordering, unpinning, renaming and deleting.
Hardcoding them would also make them undeletable, which is a regression for
anyone who does not want one of them.
Sent is different only in that its query CANNOT be stored: it is composed from
every account's `sent` key, so a stored copy goes stale the moment a folder is
renamed. That is a property of Sent, not of "default queries". Storing the
GENERATOR rather than its output keeps both halves: `"generated": "sent"` still
resolves from the accounts at click time, and the entry is an ordinary row that
can be reordered, renamed, unpinned or removed. The row now follows one rule
instead of carrying one member the user did not own.
Two properties had to travel with the entry. The composed query, resolved
through Config::resolvedQuery() so what lands in the bar is what actually ran;
and FLAT mode, since a sent view lists messages and a threaded one folds every
reply back into the conversation the user sent one message into. The sent
generator implies flat rather than trusting the file to say so, because a
hand-edited row would otherwise produce a threaded sent view.
An unknown generator is reported but the row is KEPT: a later build may know it,
and dropping it here would delete it from the file on the next save, which is
the same data loss the unknown-field handling exists to prevent. A generator
whose accounts configure nothing is skipped entirely, exactly as the hardcoded
button was hidden rather than offering one that finds nothing.
Eight new tests. The four pre-existing Sent tests reach this through migration
and were left alone, which is what proves the migrated path still behaves; the
new ones cover a STORED file, which is the path every launch after the first
takes. Mutations: a generator resolving to nothing fails three, ignoring flat
fails two, and not skipping an empty generator fails one. A rename test guards
the property the change exists for, since anything keyed on the literal name
"Sent" would break it.

document-save is the floppy/disk shape. It means "write a file somewhere",
which leaves the user to guess what is being written, and next to a row of
saved-query buttons it reads as an unrelated control. Saving a query is
bookmarking a search, so bookmark-new is the icon every desktop already uses
for "keep this for later". Verified to resolve with real art in the desktop's
actual theme rather than assumed present.
The button also shows its label now instead of the icon alone. It sits among
text buttons, and an icon on its own next to them reads as a different kind of
control; it is also the one action whose meaning an icon cannot carry, since
"save" is a familiar shape whose question is always "save what?". The toolbar
is unaffected and still follows the desktop's own button style.
The label is the button's own text rather than the action's. "&Save query..."
is menu phrasing, and setDefaultAction copies it verbatim, so the button
rendered an accelerator ampersand and the ellipsis that promises a dialog. The
action keeps both for the menu it lives in, and the test asserts the override
survives setDefaultAction rather than trusting that it does.

nothing is pinned
The saved-query buttons are the row's content and read as a set; the overflow
menu is a control over that set, so it belongs apart from them rather than
trailing the last button. Moving the stretch above it pushes it to the right
edge.
Doing that exposed a latent defect in the same function. The row hid itself when
its layout held nothing but the stretch, which was written as a count of one and
happened to be right only because the stretch went last. With the stretch moved
the count changes, and the condition as written would have hidden a row holding
only the menu: a config with saved queries but none pinned would have had no
route to any of them, the menu buried along with the row. The check now counts
the content added before the stretch and treats an unpinned query as content in
its own right.
Both are mutation-checked. Putting the stretch back at the end fails the
alignment test, and restoring the old hide condition fails the new one, which
asserts the row survives with nothing but unpinned queries in it. The alignment
is asserted on the layout's own ordering rather than on x coordinates, since a
geometry assertion would also pass for a row that merely ran out of width.

The spec asked for "a Save query button beside the search bar" and what shipped
was a menu entry and Ctrl+S. The user went looking for the button where the
design said it would be and did not find it.
Saving is a thing you decide on while looking at the results, so it belongs
where the results came from rather than behind a menu or a remembered chord.
The button takes the action through setDefaultAction rather than a second
connect, so it inherits the text, icon, tooltip and enabled state and cannot end
up offering to save an empty query while the menu entry correctly refuses. The
mutation that replaces it with a plain clicked() connection fails the test.
Also records item 82: a saved query cannot be edited, unpinned or deleted from
the UI. Item 23 specified saving and nothing else, and that is exactly what was
built, so the only way to unpin a query is a text editor or retyping it in full
under the same name. An action that creates something the UI cannot then change
or remove is incomplete, and this was found within minutes of the first hand
test. It is filed as a defect rather than an enhancement, and the spec now says
so where a reader would otherwise take the design for complete.

Second half of item 23, on top of the storage change. A query can now be kept
without hand-editing a file, and the row of buttons no longer grows without
bound.
Ctrl+S opens a dialog on whatever is in the query bar, taking a name, an
optional account scope and whether the query is pinned. It preselects the
account already chosen in the dropdown, since that is the scope the user is
looking at, and it says so when a name is about to replace an existing query
rather than refusing the name: overwriting a saved query on purpose is a normal
edit, and the only thing worth preventing is doing it without noticing. Saving
over an entry keeps the stored entry's unknown fields rather than the dialog's
fresh value, so a field written by a later build survives being edited here.
The saved queries move to a row of their own beneath the query bar, pinned ones
as buttons and the rest behind a More queries menu that only exists when
something is in it. The ponytail note that stood in the query row predicted
exactly this: an unbounded list of buttons sharing the row squeezed the field.
Sent moves down with them and is still not a saved query, for the reason already
recorded there.
A saved query's account scope goes through the account DROPDOWN rather than
being baked into the query text. runQuery() already wraps the query in the
selected account's path, so pre-scoping here would apply it twice, and setting
the dropdown also shows the user which scope they are in. An unscoped query
clears the selection rather than inheriting whatever the last one left, which is
the same defect the rules preview had.
Seven tests, three mutations. Ignoring the pinned flag fails two of them,
pre-scoping the text instead of setting the dropdown fails two, and letting an
unscoped query inherit the previous account fails one. The menu-absence test
initially passed against no implementation at all, since it only asserted a
widget was missing; it now proves the row was populated first, which is the
guard that class of test needs.
Two existing invariants caught real omissions rather than needing adjustment:
every registered action must appear in KeyMap::knownActions(), which is what
gives it a configurable binding, and every action needs its own icon.
