Linus Rath d34641d1f9 fix: sync contacts whose photo is too large for the device #34
A contact's rows are written in one provider batch, and one batch is
one Binder transaction of at most 1 MB. A contact with a larger photo
failed with `tooLarge` on every run, stayed on `stale`, never showed
on the device, and its device edits never uploaded.

Photos above about 512 KiB are now kept on the server only: the
contact is written without the photo. The shadow records that the
device holds no row for the card's photo, so the missing row is not
read as a deletion. The same applies to a photo whose bytes could not
be fetched, which an unrelated edit of the contact used to delete from
the server. A photo set on the device still replaces the server's, and
one deleted there is still deleted on the server.

Checked with planner tests for the insert, the size limit, a photo
that could not be fetched and a merge, and end to end through the
engine with the probe's 900 KB photo.

Bulwark Webmail

Bulwark Mobile

Beta - work in progress. Many features are unfinished or rough. Expect bugs, missing functionality, and breaking changes between releases. Do not rely on this for primary email yet.

React Native (Expo SDK 54) client for Bulwark Webmail - a JMAP-based mail, calendar, and contacts app.

What works today

  • Sign in to any JMAP server (e.g. Stalwart)
  • Multiple accounts
  • Email list, threads, compose
  • Calendar (basic)
  • Contacts (basic)
  • Push notifications via the Bulwark relay - FCM by default, or UnifiedPush (e.g. ntfy) for devices without Google Play services
  • In-app sideload updates from GitHub Releases

What's missing or rough

  • iOS builds, but push notifications and client certificates are Android-only so far
  • S/MIME, plugins, themes - UI stubs only (filters & rules, the vacation responder and file storage are real implementations)
  • Calendar editing is partial; contacts editing is basic
  • No Play Store distribution yet (sideload APK from Releases); iOS ships via TestFlight

Run locally

npm install
npx expo start

Then press a for Android, i for iOS, or scan the QR with Expo Go.

For release APK builds and signing see docs/android-release.md. For iOS builds and TestFlight distribution see docs/ios-release.md.
