Simple bug fixes
================
cyrus_done.patch
Add a couple of missing cyrus_done() calls, just for consistency.
make_md5.patch
The -m and -M options in 2.3.8 are broken because part of the code
is #ifdefed out (a reference to an external cdb database which only
exists on my systems).
This patch does modulo arithmetic on the Mailbox UniqueID instead.
seenstate.patch
imapd generates unsolicited EXPUNGE events in response to FETCH and
STORE commands when flushseenstate is set. This is explicitly
prohibited by the IMAP spec as it messes up concurrent access.
This patch is a halfway house between the flushseenstate and normal
behaviour which fixes the problem. Broken clients such as Outlook
sync_fixmaster.patch:
message_uuid_master_init() should only be called after we switch
to being the cyrus user. Otherwise /var/imap_hermes/master_uuid
is written as root.
sync_fixsimple.patch:
UPLOAD SIMPLE is broken in 2.3. Fortunately I will be the only one
using it.
Changes in functionality
========================
fud.patch:
Use lastchange time in seen database rather than time of last select.
I think that this is more useful with long running clients such as
PINE. Maybe this should be an option in imapd.conf?
lmtp_autocreate.patch:
Automatically create target mailboxes referenced in user Sieve files
(but only if user has sufficient privilege). Otherwise mail ends up
in the inbox if a user renames a mailbox.
Same principle as Aristotelis's autosievefolder patch.
scan.patch
Implement undocumented SCAN extension which PINE requires for cross
mailbox search. Hooks into squatter.
squatter.patch
Add -m and -M flags to squatter so that we can squat consistent fraction
of mailboxes each night (modulo arithmetic on mailbox Uniqueid).
