<ul>
<li><b>1.636</b></li>
<li><b>Enhancement</b>: Added errors dump listing at the end, before last folder sizes or the statistics. Turned on by default. Use --noerrorsdump to avoid it.</li>
<li><b>Enhancement</b>: Added --maxlinelengthcmd that will be called upon when a line over --maxlinelength is detected. </li>
<li><b>Enhancement</b>: Exchange maxlinelength issue fixed with --maxlinelengthcmd 'reformime -r7' on Linux. Install maildrop package to get reformime command</li>
<li><b>Enhancement</b>: Added --testslive. "imapsync --testslive" performs a live test on real accounts (I own).</li>
<li><b>Enhancement</b>: Added --pipemess in order to pass all message to an external filter tool like "reformime -r7".</li>
<li><b>Enhancement</b>: Added xoauth2 support, available on Unix with underlying openssl. Thanks to Joaquin Lopez.</li>
<li><b>Enhancement</b>: Added --skipmess to skip messages matching a regex.
Example --skipmess 'm/[\x80-ff]/' to slip messages with non-7bit characters ( ie a byte somewhere begins with 1 )</li>
<li><b>Usability</b>: Better output of folders excluded by --exclude and folders included by --include</li>
<li><b>Usability</b>: Added inline help in many places. What you can do with switches to change imapsync behaviour, contextually. Learn imapsync the easy way.</li>
<li><b>Bug fix</b>: imapsync --tests should work under any circumstance now, any Unix, Windows, exe or bin or script. 561 non-regression tests</li>
<li><b>Bug fix</b>: --folderfirst and --folderlast generated an error when their value folder does not exist. Existence is checked.</li>
<li><b>Bug fix</b>: --disarmreadreceipts used to change Disposition-Notification-To in the body when not available in the header. Now never changes the body in all cases.</li>
<li><b>Bug fix</b>: Change default useheader values. Now it is really like --useheader "Message-Id" --useheader "Received".
HMailServer replies two lines with --useheader "Message-Id" --useheader "Message-ID" in older releases.
</li>
<li><b>Bug fix</b>: in imap_utf7_decode() + must not be escaped. Was a bug with Cyrillic characters</li>
<li><b>Refactoring</b>: Started to split the <a href="../FAQ">FAQ</a> file in several parts in <a href="../FAQ.d/">FAQ.d/*</a></li>
<li><b>Refactoring</b>: Split the <a href="../INSTALL">INSTALL</a> file in several parts in <a href="../INSTALL.d/">INSTALL.d/*</a></li>
</ul>
<ul>
<li><b>1.607</b> Folders shown also in utf8.</li>
<li><b>Caveat to upgrade on Unix!</b>: New <b>Unicode::String</b> Perl module dependency, for utf8 output. See the <a href="../INSTALL">INSTALL</a> file.</li>
<li><b>Enhancement</b>: Added --skipemptyfolders to skip syncing empty host1 folders. They are not created on host2.</li>
<li><b>Enhancement</b>: Windows exe now uses IO::SSL 2.002 instead of 1.98 (is it really an enhancement?).</li>
<li><b>Usability</b>: Remove /x from regexes applied with --include and --exclude. Blanks no longer have to be explicit with \ or [ ].</li>
<li><b>Usability</b>: Added utf8 output for folder names, protocol native utf7imap special characters are not user friendly readable</li>
<li><b>Usability</b>: Moved foldersizes output after folders lists output.</li>
<li><b>Usability</b>: Added total size transferred after each message copied.</li>
<li><b>Usability</b>: After ETA, added number of total to be synced, as a denominator dddd after each message copied, like nnn/dddd
where nnn is the number of messages copied. Before there was only nnn without /dddd.</li>
<li><b>Bug fix</b>: Cache fix on Windows. File paths with brackets [] are special, they have to be escaped with glob.
For example, [Gmail] must be written [[]Gmail[]].</li>
<li><b>Bug fix</b>: Added several checks if IsUnconnected. Goal avoid imap commands while disconnected.
Reconnexion would be better anyway.</li>
</ul>
<ul>
<li><b>1.597</b> Small things</li>
<li><b>Enhancement</b>: Added --nomixfolders to avoid merging folders that are considered different on host1 but the same on destination host2
because of case sensitivities and insensitivities.</li>
<li><b>Bug fix</b>: Fixed "imapsync doesn't see created folders in the listing of folder sizes at the end". (second time this bug shows up)</li>
</ul>
<ul>
<li><b>1.592</b> Logging by default! (an internal feature now)</li>
<li><b>Caveat to upgrade</b>: New <b>IO::Tee</b> Perl module dependency, for logging. See the <a href="../INSTALL">INSTALL</a> file.</li>
<li><b>Windows upgrade</b>: Win32 binary is now distributed in a zip file with two batches scripts ready to use it.</li>
<li><b>Enhancement</b>: Added logging by default in subdirectory <b>./LOG_imapsync/</b></li>
<li><b>Enhancement</b>: <b>Added option --log turned on by default</b>. Use --nolog to disable logging.</li>
<li><b>Enhancement</b>: Added option --logfile. Default is like ./LOG_imapsync/YYYY_MM_DD_HH_MM_SS_user2.txt
where YYYY_MM_DD_HH_MM_SS is the launching date and time like 2014_05_20_23_45_10</li>
<li><b>Enhancement</b>: Added option <b>--disarmreadreceipts</b> to fix resending read receipts on host2. A must with Exchange as host2.</li>
<li><b>Enhancement</b>: Added FTGate support (no EXAMINE imap command used anymore).</li>
<li><b>Usability</b>: Updated the code to easily switch on --noreleasecheck by default but allowing --releasecheck (some users want this feature).</li>
<li><b>Usability</b>: Warn syncing messges will not be simulated when --dry mode is on and folder on host2 does not exist yet.</li>
<li><b>Bug fix</b>: Make TLS works with last IO::Socket::SSL default value (Added SSL_verify_mode => 'SSL_VERIFY_NONE') in --tls mode.</li>
<li><b>Bug fix</b>: Fixed bug when creating folders on host2 with --sep2=\\ (Lotus Notes).</li>
<li><b>Bug fix</b>: Try to get folder size when a folder on host2 has the same name but with a different case
like OLD_MAIL -> old_mail. This avoids "does not exist" output.</li>
</ul>
<ul>
<li><b>1.584</b></li>
<li><b>Enhancement</b>: Added --minmaxlinelength to select messages with long lines only.
It helps to diagnostic Echange error on messages with lines longer than 9000 characters</li>
<li><b>Enhancement</b>: Added --debugmaxlinelength</li>
<li><b>Bug fix</b>: --ssl1 --tls2 was buggy because of default SSL_VERIFY_PEER.
"Can not go to tls encryption on [localhost]:Unable to start TLS: Cannot determine peer hostname for verification..."</li>
<li><b>Bug fix</b>: Check if going to tls is ok, exit otherwise with explicit error message.
Thanks to Dennis Schridde for reporting this ugly bug that deserves this <a href="http://web.nvd.nist.gov/view/vuln/detail?vulnId=CVE-2014-2014">CVE-2014-2014</a>.</li>
<li><b>Debug</b>: Print separator given by NAMESPACE even when --sep1 oe --sep2 is used.</li>
<li><b>Debug</b>: Prints prefix given by NAMESPACE even when --prefix1 or --prefix2 is used.
It is a preparation for advising not to use --prefix unless suggested.</li>
</ul>
<p><b>Good changes</b> made before, listed because <b>they can help</b>:
</p>
<ul>
<li><b>Enhancement</b>: Added <b>--skipcrossduplicates</b> to avoid copying messages that are already copied in another folder, good <b>from Gmail to X</b>.</li>
<li><b>Enhancement</b>: Added --debugcrossduplicates to print which messages (UIDs) are skipped with --skipcrossduplicates (and in what other folders they are).</li>
<li><b>Enhancement</b>: Added --folderfirst string: sync this folder first. --folderfirst "Work" --folderfirst "Friends"</li>
<li><b>Enhancement</b>: Added --folderlast string: sync this folder last. --folderlast "[Gmail]/All Mail" etc.</li>
<li><b>Enhancement</b>: Added <b>--maxmessagespersecond</b> to limit messages tranfer rate and fix <b>Office365 throttle limitation</b> (use --maxmessagespersecond 4).</li>
<li><b>Enhancement</b>: Added --maxbytespersecond to limit byte transfer rate.</li>
<li><b>Enhancement</b>: Added --debugmemory option that prints memory consumption after each message is copied.</li>
<li><b>Enhancement</b>: Added --authmech EXTERNAL.</li>
<li><b>Enhancement</b>: Adapted behavior for allowing --maxdate --mindate with --noabletosearch.
Use internat date instead of Date: header.</li>
<li><b>Enhancement</b>: QQMail IMAP4Server success (with --noabletosearch option) </li>
<li><b>Usability</b>: Apply same treatment to --delete2duplicates as --delete2.
If --uidexpunge2 can be done, do it, else do --expunge2 (unless --nouidexpunge2 or --noexpunge2).</li>
<li><b>Usability</b>: Added --timeout in the --help output. Default timeout is 120 seconds now
(was nothing by imapsync, 600 with underlying modules).</li>
<li><b>Enhancement/Bug fix</b>: Added --ssl1_SSL_version and --ssl2_SSL_version to force the SSL_version
in case the default auto-negociation does not work. Example: <b>--ssl1 --ssl1_SSL_version SSLv3</b></li>
<li><b>Enhancement</b>: Added option --messageidnodomain to fix Mailenable bug changing the domain part of Message-Id header, and avoid duplicates</li>
<li><b>Enhancement</b>: Added option --syncflagsaftercopy to fix Mailenable bug not getting the flags with the APPEND</li>
<li><b>Enhancement</b>: Added option <b>--maxlinelength</b> to skip messages whose max line length is over a number of bytes.
Exchange 2013 and Office365 need <b>--maxlinelength 1000</b> (which is a RFC2822 must) to avoid disconnections.</li>
<li><b>Usability</b>: Added --fixInboxINBOX, turned on by default, to map automatically Inbox INBOX folder names.</li>
<li><b>Usability</b>: IMAP server removing consecutive spaces on the header part doesn't generate duplicates (MailEnable does that)</li>
<li><b>Usability</b>: SSL_verify_mode 0 to avoid warning about Man-In-The-Middle.</li>
<li><b>Enhancement</b>: Added XOAUTH authentication. Thanks to Eduardo Bortoluzzi Junior.</li>
<li><b>Enhancement</b>: Added <b>--search1</b> and <b>--search2</b> to allow different searches on each host.</li>
<li><b>Usability</b>: Added --delete1 as an alias for --delete</li>
<li><b>Speed</b>: Option <b>--nocheckmessageexists is activated by default</b> since --checkmessageexists often slow down transfers too much.</li>
<li><b>Usability</b>: Option --foldersizesatend is on if --foldersizes is on. Off if --nofoldersizesatend</li>
<li><b>Usability</b>: Added <b>host2 minus host1 statistic</b>: number of messages and bytes.
One difference at the start and one at the end.
Useful to <b>detect quickly a difference between host2 and host1</b>.
Need both --foldersizes and --foldersizesatend options (which are on by default).</li>
<li><b>Usability</b>: Added <b>--foldersizesatend</b>.
It gets the folders sizes at the end of the whole transfer.
Turned on by default (use --nofoldersizesatend to turn it off).</li>
<li><b>Enhancement</b>: Added option <b>--delete2duplicates</b>;
it deletes messages in host2 that are duplicates.
--delete2duplicates is on when --delete2 is set unless --nodelete2duplicates is set too.
</li>
<li><b>Enhancement</b>: Added option <b>--pidfilelocking</b>;
it aborts imapsync, when just launched,
in case another imapsync may be running.
Turned off by default</li>
<li><b>Usability</b>: Added option <b>--showpasswords</b>.
it shows passwords on output instead of "MASKED".
Turned off by default.
Useful to restart a run by reading the log
or to see what happen with special characters.
</li>
<li><b>Bug fix</b>: Added option <b>--fixslash2</b>
to avoid the '<b>Invalid mailbox name</b>' error.
It acts when --sep1 is character / and --sep2 is not character /
and host1 folder name contains --sep2 characters.
Turned on by default (--nofixslash2 to unable it).</li>
<li><b>Enhancement</b>: Added option <b>--noabletosearch</b>
to allow the listing of messages without the imap "SEARCH ALL" command.
It's useful for playing with poor imap servers like <b>Softalk 7.6.4</b>
(8.6 is fine with SEARCH ALL).</li>
<li><b>Enhancement</b>: Added <b>--noexpungeaftereach</b>
to speedup --delete --expunge from Gmail.</li>
<li><b>Enhancement</b>: Added option <b>--nocheckmessageexists</b> to <b>speed up</b> with <b>Tobit imap server</b> as host1.</li>
<li><b>Enhancement</b>: Added option --exitwhenover option <b>to avoid locking</b>
when transfers exceed maximum limit.
See for example <a href="https://support.google.com/a/answer/1071518?hl=en">this Gmail constraint</a>
<ul>
<li>imapsync ... --exitwhenover 2500000000 # 2.5GB if <b>host1 is Gmail</b></li>
<li>imapsync ... --exitwhenover 500000000 # 500MB if <b>host2 is Gmail</b></li>
</ul>
</li>
<li><b>Usability</b>: Default headers used to identify a message are like --useheader "Message-Id" --useheader "Received"
(<b>Exchange compatibility</b> bu default).</li>
<li><b>Enhancement</b>: Added option --addheader to fix the issue
"ignored (no header so we ignore this message)" (on <b>Sent</b> folder usually).
Thanks to Ameir Abdeldayem</li>
<li><b>Enhancement</b>: Added --nofilterflags to check any STORE flags
by ignoring PERMANENTFLAGS (Exchange tests)</li>
</ul>
