Before, we were using several IMAP-specific concepts to represent
information being displayed in the UI. Factor these structures out of
the IMAP package to make it easier for other backends to provide the
required information.
|
|
A sequence-set is an IMAP-specific implementation detail. Throughout the
UI, aerc simply operates using lists of opaque identifiers. In order to
loosen the coupling between the UI and IMAP in particular, replace most
usages of imap.SeqSet with []uint32, leaving the translation to a SeqSet
to the IMAP backend as needed.
|
|
Before, the information needed to display different parts of the UI was
tightly coupled to the specific messages being sent back and forth to
the backend worker. Separating out a models package allows us to be more
specific about exactly what a backend is able to and required to
provide for the UI.

Unfortunately, the IMAP protocol hasn't been designed to be used from multiple
goroutines at the same time. For instance, if you fetch twice the same message
from two different goroutines, it's not possible to tell whether the response
is for one receiver or the other. For this reason, go-imap clients aren't safe
to use from multiple goroutines.
This commit changes the IMAP workers to be synchronous again (a command is
executed only after the previous one has completed). To use IMAP from different
threads, popular clients (e.g. Thunderbird) typically open multiple
connections.
