Review of the pop-out work found ways to lose text, a wrong sign-out and
changes reaching ordinary browser tabs.
- Drafts: a closing window hands text over only to a main window holding
its login, and asks instead when the last save failed, the browser is
offline, a save is running or plugins could still have a say. A failed
rescue goes to "Continue draft". The opening window lets go only once
the composer is on screen, also for Edit draft in a message window.
Send options travel with the draft. Closing during a send asks first.
- Sessions: answers are encrypted for the window that asked, and only a
window holding the login answers. A renewal queued on the lock can be
called off by a sign-out, signs nobody out once its account is gone, and
takes the cached token after waiting (Rauthy `nbf`, #552).
- Ordinary tabs run none of the host. No lock is held for life.
- A message window hides after a refused session and waits for its
folders; a composer stays on screen with its text. Another tab dropping a
login it couldn't restore no longer closes pop-outs.
- Plain-text mail stays selectable in the desktop app. Folder save renames
reserved and shell names and skips one refused name. All display-mode
checks know the overlay. The attachment bar keeps to one row.
The earlier test that accepted text being gone after a failed rescue now
asserts that it reaches the "Continue draft" slot.
Any site could POST a form to the share target on load: with no clicks
the composer opened with its subject and file, and autosave stored a
real draft on the server 2 seconds later. The worker can't see where a
POST came from, and Chromium's link capturing accepts form submissions,
so an installed-app window proves nothing either.
- every share landing now asks first, in every window and browser; a
text landing address gets the same question. Nothing goes up before
the answer.
- handed-in text and files are the composer's starting state: no
autosave, page-close save or sign-out flush before the first real
edit.
- the worker ignores frames, keeps at most 5 entries and 100 MB for 15
minutes, sweeps on activate, on each share and from a page timer,
and seals what it keeps with a key passed in the landing fragment.
Offline wipes clear it too.
- the server fallback uses the fragment and caps by encoded length:
3000 Japanese characters made a 27 KB `Location` and a 431.
- a second compose handoff waits until the composer closes, also one
set aside by reading a message, where it used to replace the first.
- a launch leaving the mail page saves what was just typed first.
- an expired handoff or a missing stored file now says so; shares get
the control-character stripping and limits of `parseMailto`.
Existing tests changed because the landing moved from the query to the
fragment, stored entries gained a sealed part, and a share now asks
first.
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 installed app only handled mailto: and webcal: launches. The launch
consumer dropped files, and nothing could hand a File to the composer or
the import dialogs, because the pending mailto is JSON in sessionStorage.
- manifest: `shortcuts` named in the browser's language, `file_handlers`
for .eml, .ics and .vcf, and `share_target`, all with the base path and
per-domain branding. Lite's manifest is unchanged.
- `lib/launch-handoff.ts`: the one place files and links wait, in memory
and in the Cache API, so they survive a sign-in that leaves the page.
The desktop bridge can call the same functions, since launchQueue never
fires in Electron. Sign-out clears it.
- launch consumer: routes files by type, and takes a shortcut to an open
window, which focus-existing would otherwise only focus.
- .eml opens in a new host for the preview, also before sign-in, with the
strictest device policy deciding about saving. .ics and .vcf open their
import dialogs through a new `initialFile` prop. A .ics needs the server,
so offline the dialog says so and carries on once back online.
- composer: `initialFiles` goes through `addFiles`, so plugin vetoes and
size limits still apply, also from a Pro compose tab.
- `sw.js` takes the share POST before the offline check and keeps the files
for the page. Without a worker, `/protocol/share` passes text and links
on and the page says the files are lost. `protocol` joins the app
sections and the handler pages join the shell, so a mailto: launch
offline no longer gets a network error.
Browsers without launchQueue or a service worker behave as before.
Some user-facing strings still said "Bulwark" on a deployment with its own
APP_NAME: Settings > General > Default apps (protocol handlers), the "Open
Bulwark" notification, the rate-limit banner and toast, the plugin connect
dialog, one plugin permission text and the connector page.
These strings now take an {appName} placeholder, filled by productName():
the configured APP_NAME, or "Bulwark" when it is unset or the default
"Webmail" (the same rule as the TOTP issuer and the About card, #1160).
A stock install reads as before.
The settings search (the settings page and api.app.searchSettings) indexes
these texts with the name filled in, so "bulwark" or the configured name
finds Default apps and no result carries the raw placeholder.
Locales: the 13 keys in every locale that has "Bulwark" in them. Languages
that inflect the name (cs, et, hu, ko, ro, sk, tr) use a neutral form such
as "{appName} uygulamasında" instead of a declined "Bulwark'ta"; a native
check of those is welcome.
Not changed on purpose: the mobile app, push relay, Lite, demo and admin
texts, which speak about Bulwark itself.
