Item 68, which turned out to be three things once its premise was
measured. The note asked to extend a "passed" subject rule to "Fw:";
there was no subject rule, and the correlation it rested on did not
exist. What did exist was a gap nobody had reported.
Reply and forward now flag their source. The Maildir R and P flags,
which every other client sets and notmuch reads back as "replied" and
"passed", had never been written here: measured on the developer's
index, all 317 "replied" and all 6 "passed" came from other clients.
ComposeWindow emits sourceMessageAnswered after a successful send and
MainWindow routes it through sendMessageTagChange, message-scoped and
off the undo stack, for the reason auto mark-read is: the flag records
that the mail went, and the send cannot be undone.
ComposeContext carries sourceMessageId rather than reusing inReplyTo,
which is deliberately empty on a forward so the recipient's client does
not file it under the thread it left. Keying on it made the "passed"
half dead code that compiled and never fired. A resumed draft is
excluded: its kind records how the file was opened, not what the user is
doing, so flagging on it would set R from a guess.
A received forward gets its own mark. Derived from the subject at paint
time, storing nothing and reaching no server, because "passed" means "I
forwarded this" and setting it from a guess would assert something false
on 222 existing messages. subjectIsForwarded() shares forwardSubject()'s
prefix table so the two cannot disagree, strips a Re: chain first, and
takes extra locale spellings from [general] forward_prefixes, which
extends the built-in table rather than replacing it.
A mutation survived the first round and corrected a claim in the code:
QRegularExpression::escape already makes a punctuation prefix inert, so
the word guard is not about pattern validity. It stops a configured "-"
matching "-: x". The comment and test say that now.

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".
