The lock is off by default, and an OS policy can require it and set the
timeout. It locks after a time without use counted across all windows and
tabs, on OS screen lock in the desktop app, and from Lock now.
Locking saves open composers, stops the outbox at its next message, closes
the store and stops its worker with every key, then reloads the page, so
nothing of the old page stays in reach. The new page holds the app back at a
Suspense boundary until someone unlocks. Pop-outs get no session while
locked, push notifications name nobody, and subjects leave plain storage.
One random lock key wraps each account's key as a layer. The PIN wraps the
lock key with PBKDF2 at 600,000 iterations, with a wait after wrong tries
that a reload doesn't reset. A passkey with PRF and the desktop's OS storage
wrap it too. Details and limits are in the decisions file.
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.
