In the new reply code, the References header gets inserted by
message.el using a function called message-shorten-references. Unlike
all the other header-inserting functions, it doesn't put a newline
after the header, causing the next header to end up on the same
line. In our case, this header happened to be User-Agent, so it's hard
to notice. This is probably a bug in message.el, but we need to work
around it.
This fixes the problem by wrapping message-shorten-references in a
function that inserts a newline after if necessary. This should
protect against the message.el bug being fixed in the future.
By default, emacs hides the User-Agent and References headers when
composing mail. This is a good thing for users, but a bad thing for
testing, since we can create ugly or invalid headers and not have it
show up in the tests.
By setting message-hidden-headers to an empty list, we force emacs to
show all the headers, so we can check that they're correct. Users
won't see this, but it will let us catch future bugs.
As a side-effect, this breaks all the reply tests, since there is a
bug with the References and User-Agent headers, fixed in the next commit.
Bug 1: Replying from alternate addresses
----------------------------------------
The reply code was inconsistent in its use of symbols and strings for
header names being passed to message.el functions. This caused the
From header to be lookup up incorrectly, causing an additional From
header to be added with the user's primary address instead of the
correct alternate address.
This is fixed by using symbols everywhere, i.e. never using strings
for header names when interacting with message.el.
This change also removes our use of `mail-header`, since we don't use
it anywhere else, and using assq makes it clear how the header lists
are expected to work.
Bug 2: Duplicate headers in emacs 23.2
--------------------------------------
The message.el code in emacs 23.2 assumes that header names will
always be passed as symbols, so our use of strings caused
problems. The symptom was that on 23.2 (and presumably on earlier
versions) the reply message would end up with two of some headers.
Converting everything to symbols also fixes this issue.
Since the recent reply changes were pushed, there has been a bug that
causes emacs to always reply from the primary address, even if the
JSON or default CLI reply output uses an alternate address.
This adds two tests to the emacs test library based on the two "Reply
form..." tests in the reply test library. One is currently marked
broken.
Previously, this function took an argument called "message-id", even
though it was a general query, rather than a message ID. This changes
it to "query".
This makes more logical sense, since it makes the recursive printer
responsible for the entire reply body and lets it start at the root of
the MIME tree instead of the first child. (We could move reply header
creation in there, too, but if we ever support proper reply to
multiple messages, we'll want just one set of reply headers computed
from the entire message set and many bodies.)
Previously, show and reply had separate implementations of decoding
and printing text parts. Now both use show's implementation, which
was more complete. Show's implementation has been extended with an
option to add reply quoting to the extracted part (this is implemented
as a named flag to avoid naked booleans, even though it's the only
flag it can take).
This adds a lib function to turn a message ID into a properly escaped
message ID query and uses this function wherever we previously
hand-constructed ID queries. Wherever this new function is used,
documentation has been clarified to refer to "id: queries" instead of
"message IDs".
This fixes the broken test introduced by the previous patch.
To simplify code, keep all tagging operations in a single array
instead of separate add and remove arrays. Apply tag changes in the
order specified on the command line, instead of first removing and
then adding the tags.
This results in a minor functional change: If a tag is both added and
removed, the last specified operation is now used. Previously the tag
was always added. Change the relevant test to reflect the new
behaviour.

The current behaviour is that regardless of the order in which the
addition and removal of a tag are specified, the tag is added.

The function notmuch-match-content-type was comparing content types
case sensitively. Fix it so it tests case insensitively.
This fixes a bug where emacs would not include any body when replying
to a message with content-type TEXT/PLAIN.
Some 0.12 NEWS items descriptions were indented with 3 spaces whereas
all other lines are indented with 2 spaces. Brought those
escaped lines back in line with others.
This allows for testing against both versions of gmime on a single
machine, without having to mess with pkg-config paths.
This is rework of Tom Prince's patch submitted in

In the future, IFS value needs to be changed in a few places
in configure -- and then restored. Store the original value
to $DEFAULT_IFS for easy restoration.
Formerly the code assumed the arguments to be triples and threw an
error if this was not the case. But those arguments are only there for
compatibility with autotools and are not used within the build system,
so just dropping the code parsing these values makes the build system
more robust.

Use the new JSON reply format to create replies in emacs. Quote HTML
parts nicely by using mm-display-part to turn them into displayable
text, then quoting them with message-cite-original. This is very
useful for users who regularly receive HTML-only email.
Use message-mode's message-cite-original function to create the
quoted body for reply messages. In order to make this act like the
existing notmuch defaults, you will need to set the following in
your emacs configuration:
message-citation-line-format "On %a, %d %b %Y, %f wrote:"
message-citation-line-function 'message-insert-formatted-citation-line
The tests have been updated to reflect the (ugly) emacs default.
This new JSON format for replies includes headers generated for a
reply message as well as the headers of the original message. Using
this data, a client can intelligently create a reply. For example, the
emacs client will be able to create replies with quoted HTML parts by
parsing the HTML parts.
In X, Emacs distinguishes the tab key, which produces a 'tab event;
from C-i, which produces a ?\t event. However, in a terminal, these
are indistinguishable and only produce a ?\t event. In order to
simplify things, Emacs automatically translates from 'tab to ?\t (see
"Function key translations" in M-x describe-bindings), so functions
only need to be bound to ?\t to work in all situations.
Previously, the search tab completion code usedq (kbd "<tab>"), which
produced the event sequence [tab], which only matched the 'tab event
and hence only worked in X. This patch changes it to (kbd "TAB"),
which matches the general ?\t event and works in all situations.
When the exclude tags contain a tag that does not occur anywhere in
the Xapian database the exclusion fails. We modify the way the query
is constructed to `work around' this. (In fact the new code is cleaner
anyway.)
It also seems to fix another exclusion failure bug reported by
jrollins but we have not yet worked out why it helps in that case.
This adds three tests for --output=messages searches. One test is for
the case when one exclude tag does not occur in the Xapian
database. This triggers a Xapian bug in some cases and causes the
whole exclusion to fail. The next commit avoids this bug.
