An installed app had no title bar of its own, no way to save attachments
except a zip, and "pop out" stayed inside the page. A new window was a
second copy of the app that had to restore the session itself, and on
start-up that evicts any login made without "Remember me" from the list
every window shares.
- Title bar: `display_override` with `window-controls-overlay`, one
`--titlebar-inset` variable at the page roots and skeletons, and a drag
strip with the window title. 0 without an overlay, so nothing moves.
- Save all to a folder: `showDirectoryPicker`, asking the device policy
before the picker and before each file, with the zip as the fallback.
- Pop-out routes `/popout/message/<id>` and `/popout/compose`, on offer in
an installed app or when the desktop bridge has windows. Hidden in Lite.
- A pop-out borrows the main window's session and never evicts or starts a
token timer. Every renewal now takes a Web Lock, so two windows can't
send the same refresh token, which Stalwart 1.0 may treat as a replay.
- A draft moves to its window under the same id. A closing window hands
unsaved text to the main window to save, since its own request wouldn't
survive the close.
- Read state, drafts, theme and language follow across windows, and
`html[data-desktop]` gates the app-like behaviour in `app/desktop.css`.
- The button and the panel of Calendar, Contacts, Files and Settings
show only when the plugin's shouldShow says yes, so a plugin switched
off for these views (admin, user or no service) leaves no button that
opens an empty panel, and no extra rows in Contacts and Settings.
- Files: while the details are open the panel steps aside there only;
the other views keep it as the user left it. With both stored open the
details fold when the page loads.
- Resizing stops where the view keeps its 480 px, so a drag or the arrow
keys no longer fold the panel away (and the handle keeps the focus).
- Settings and Contacts render the same element with or without the
panel, so a form keeps what was typed when the panel starts docking.
- Contacts on a phone: the panel button sits over an open contact too.
- The panel buttons of the reader and the views have one name, "Plugin
panel", with aria-pressed, and name the plugin's panel shortcut in
their title; the open panels are named landmarks.
The reader tests look the button up by its new name and pressed state
(viewer-toolbar-over-side-panel, reader-plugin-surfaces,
viewer-plugin-panel-width), since "Show/Hide plugin panel" is gone.
A security and an accessibility review of the proofreading hook found
gaps, fixed here.
What leaves the browser:
- A checker gets a name for each composer of its own, not the composer's
id, so it can't reach the message through the other api.composer calls
after proofreading stops.
- Checking pauses while a plugin that can sign or encrypt is turned on but
still starting, and while the policy couldn't be fetched (the built-in
defaults could undo an admin's lock).
- No plugin can hold up turning proofreading off (onBeforeSettingChange).
- Suggestions can't carry zero-width, bidi or line-separator characters;
messages lose bidi overrides; a flood of annotations is cut off early.
- The notices name the plugin as installed, not a label it chose, and say
that text written before signing or encryption was turned on may
already have been checked.
- A checker registered during start-up no longer fails its first check.
Keyboard and screen readers:
- Escape in the issue panel closes the panel, not the message.
- Underlines carry aria-invalid, as the browser's own markers do.
- The focus goes somewhere sensible when a button or an issue goes away,
Tab past the popup's edges goes back to the text, and the shortcuts work
in the popup and the panel.
- Ctrl+' and Ctrl+; follow the character typed, so other layouts keep
their own keys (Ctrl+S on Dvorak), with Ä and Ö on German keyboards.
- The popup is described by its message, sits inside a modal composer,
fits narrow screens, and the panel fits a phone.
Automatic signature insertion was unconditional: any identity with a
signature got it embedded in new mail and appended to replies, forwards
and quick replies. Users who want a signature only in specific contexts
had no way to opt out.
Add two per-account synced settings, both defaulting to off:
- signatureNewMailEnabled: insert the signature in new messages (and
re-opened drafts, which open in compose mode)
- signatureReplyForwardEnabled: append it in replies, forwards and the
quick reply box
With a toggle off the composer neither embeds the signature into the
body, nor appends one at send or draft-save time, nor shows the
read-only preview under the editor - the preview would promise a
signature that never goes out. A signature pasted in by hand is never
stripped (bodyCarriesSignature still short-circuits the append).
Also flip signatureSeparatorEnabled's default from true to false: the
RFC 3676 "-- " delimiter surprised users more than it helped. Only the
default changes - no migration, so users who already set it keep their
choice.

Settings > Backup & reset gets "Keep mail on this device", off until the
user turns it on in this browser. While it is on:
- the JMAP client hands the server's answers to an encrypted cache in
IndexedDB (AES-GCM, non-extractable key) and answers from it when the
network is gone: the folder list, the last 30 days of the Inbox and of
the folders the user opened, bodies and attachments, at most 250 MB,
oldest out first; a background sync keeps it current
- read, flag, tags and moves made offline are queued and sent in order
when the server answers again; deleting for good and emptying a folder
are refused offline
- the composer, quick reply and the S/MIME and PGP plugins' sends that
complete the composer's go to an outbox once every step up to the
transport ran (checks, label, signature, plugin send checks); only the
finished send waits, with files attached offline
- the service worker keeps this build's app shell, so the app also
starts offline from the kept session and the last policy
- a full sign-out, the idle sign-out and signing one account out delete
it, a sign-out the user starts asks first when mail is unsent, and the
login page names what an automatic sign-out deleted; a policy fetch
that forbids it (devices.noOffline) wipes that account
Not in Lite.
- Settings > Backup & reset gets a Mail files section for Import mail
and Export all mail, instead of sitting under settings backup.
- The pause message names Stalwart's 50000000-byte quota as 50 MB, not
48 MB, and the dialog and settings texts mention .ost files.
- The old import's leftovers go: expandImportableEmails and
EML_IMPORT_ACCEPT in lib/eml-import.ts, and the strings
email_viewer.import_email, mailbox_context_menu.import_email and
notifications.import_email_success/_error in all 30 locales.
lib/__tests__/eml-import.test.ts loses the tests of the removed
functions; its #891 checks that an .eml and an .eml in a ZIP keep their
Date header now run against the import's own sources.
