Also, we probably shouldn't + use shutil.copy2() for this; at least we have to handle symlinked targets in a + sane way, see Debian bug #349068. mbox_sync_mailbox() in the mutt code might + be an example how to write back a changed mailbox. +* Double-check the entire locking code. + +IMAP SEARCH BEFORE disregards time and timezone information. This should at +least be documented. E.g. I've found that '-d 0' didn't match all messages in +an IMAP mailbox. This is because the SEARCH key is (BEFORE 14-Nov-2007) on 14 +November, not matching messages that arrived today. Do we need an '--all' +option to fix this? + +Document mbox format issues: link to +http://homepages.tesco.net/~J.deBoynePollard/FGA/mail-mbox-formats.html, +qmail mbox manpage, Debian manpage, RFC 4155. Document what mbox format we can +read, and what we write. +FIXME: we cannot yet parse rfc 2822 addr-spec stuff like quoted local-parts in +return-path addresses. + +Minor annoyance: when a From_ line is generated, guess_delivery_time() reports +the used date header a second time. + Check sf.net and Debian BTS for new bugs. Again. IMAP: ensure mailbox archives are properly named. Currently imap folder names |
