v0.8.0 Release Notes

VIP contacts, Contacts Hub redesign, large-list virtualization, all-new brand — extending AI from "reading mail" to "maintaining relationships"

• VIP (important) contacts (headline, v0.8.0): tag contacts as client / leader / colleague / family / custom from contact details, org directory, or the reading pane; inbound mail from VIPs is auto-flagged on arrival; marking a contact auto-builds an AI profile with scheduled refresh (four-condition scheduling + quota + 429 backoff, globally toggleable); before sending to a VIP, AI checks spelling / attachments / sensitive information (protocol v3.14, tone judged by relationship), fail can block, offline local rules apply, and nothing ever silently passes.
• Contacts Hub redesign (v0.8.0): a standalone-window contact hub (scoped read-only embedded view in the main window); three-way concurrent global search across local + org + VIP (VIP pinned ⭐); unified personal address book (local namespace) deduplicated across accounts; contact groups with left-groups-right-members layout and column-width drag; split-button "new contact" with "pick from directory" prefill.
• Large-list virtualization (v0.8.0): virtual scrolling for the mail list (a 4,351-row DOM shrinks to the viewport subset, with a full-render fallback switch); contact list virtualization in list view; sticky single date-group header with rAF throttling; selection follows scrolling across groups (j/k navigation); rAF-throttled column-width dragging.
• Full UI polish pass (v0.8.0): all P1-P3 issues from four external design-review rounds fixed; mail area reorganized (search into the folder bar / select-all merged into the count row / 200-selection cap); richer hover preview (recipients / relative dates / replied-forwarded badges / local long summary); body width adapts to the viewport (clamp 720px-1100px) with fixed-width legacy-mail cleanup; second-generation brand icons and wordmark rolled out everywhere.
• Enterprise push stability (v0.8.0, four fixes): a 50s read_timeout on EVIM long-polling so black-dead connections after network loss / sleep no longer freeze push; reconnect re-reads device_key / access_token; push_mailchange syncs read/star state of existing mail; token expiry (12008) pops a re-auth guide and MFA can be re-entered.
• Send & sync hardening (v0.8.0): oversize attachments are preflighted before queueing and classified as permanent failures (ending retry-storm CPU burn); background-sync badge residue fixed; unread counts unified to the server-side definition; draft-list jump-to-bottom fixed; signature / empty-draft root cause fixed; opening uncached bodies offline no longer flashes a red error.
• Everything in v0.7.x remains available: sj-track read tracking, replied/forwarded flags, unified address book, first-run AI onboarding, full security hardening, self-service API key reset, and more.
• Windows x86-64 v0.8.0 officially released (code-signed); macOS v0.8.0 on both channels (Intel / Apple Silicon); Windows ARM64 latest is v0.7.6 (v0.8.0 package coming soon); Android latest is v0.7.7

v0.7.6 Release Notes (previous release)

Read tracking, replied / forwarded flags, unified address book — the v0.7.x series finale

• Email read tracking (sj-track, v0.7.1): toggle tracking with one click when composing (whole-message / per-recipient granularity); sent-list read badges (requested / read / partial) and "M of N recipients have read"; a read-details panel shows per-recipient open status and reading environment (region / OS / client / device); transparent quota usage (remaining / limit / period); recipients' side auto-detects tracking beacons with policy-based prompts and MDN receipt support; self-opens and security-gateway bot crawls (bot_open) no longer count as reads.
• Replied / forwarded flags (v0.7.6): indicators in the list, preview, and reading window; after replying / forwarding, server flags are written back automatically (IMAP \Answered / $Forwarded), syncing bidirectionally with the server — consistent across devices, monotonic (never unset); replies / forwards automatically carry the original message context (replyContext).
• Unified personal address book (v0.7.6): a merged aggregate view of personal contacts across accounts, deduplicated by email address; composing to a contact routes sending through its owning account automatically.
• First-run AI onboarding (v0.7.2): a one-time guided tour of the AI morning briefing / writing assistant / reading tools at first launch, with one-click activation straight to API key request — zero-friction setup for new users.
• Title-bar / toolbar unification (v0.7.2): system title bar and toolbar merged into a single row for a borderless, space-saving window; settings / dark mode / font-size entries moved to a bottom-left quick bar; popups unified with mutual exclusion (open-new-closes-old / outside click / Esc).
• Full-stack security hardening (v0.7.3): CSP configured and the frontend global command channel closed, sealing the email XSS attack chain; OTA download and update checks bound against hijacking; account password sentinel masking on the frontend; attachment privilege-escalation reads and direct executable-open interception blocked.
• Coremail missed-mail fix (v0.7.2 / v0.7.3): servers such as 126 / 163 / yeah silently dropped batches of new mail due to a UID-range query flaw — switched to full query plus client-side filtering, with backfill for previously missed mail; lenient decoding for non-standard encoded subject lines.
• Compose experience (v0.7.1 ~ v0.7.5): clipboard images inlined in the body (cid), drag-resize and insert-image for body pictures, full-size body image viewer (zoom / pan); bold / italic / underline / strikethrough / text color / highlight / font family / font size all fixed; byte-true progress for large attachments; drafts deleted only after successful delivery; replies to image-heavy mails of any size work normally (in-memory channel).
• Two-step account setup (v0.7.3): step one asks only for your email address; step two auto-guesses / pre-fills connection settings (imap.<domain> / smtp.<domain>), with "change connection method" available anytime.
• Fixes: duplicate drafts from "edit again" on drafts; unresponsive Gmail authorization button; system folders like "Sent" being accidentally renameable; dark-mode "white-on-white" body text and non-inverted dark text, independent windows not following the theme, and more.
• Everything in v0.7.0 remains available: self-service API key reset, tray-style AI chat panel, real usage dashboard, full-repo async command migration, and more.
• Windows x86-64 and ARM64 v0.7.6 officially released; Android v0.7.7 now available (ARM64 APK); macOS latest is v0.7.0

v0.7.0 Release Notes

Self-service API key reset, tray-style AI chat panel, real usage dashboard — AI with more peace of mind

• Self-service API key reset: API keys are stored as hashes only — previously, losing one meant finding an admin; since v0.7.0, if the application says the account already exists, you can start a self-service reset inline — it only sends a confirmation email and makes zero changes to account state; follow the email instructions to verify, receive a new key, and have all old keys revoked at once, with the client applying the new key automatically.
• Tray-style AI chat panel: the chat dialog can be minimized to a tray at the bottom-right, with a notification when streaming finishes — long tasks like lengthy translations or batch summaries can run in the background.
• Split AI assistant button: the main area opens the chat dialog directly; the dropdown arrow opens the configuration / usage menu — fewer layers of navigation.
• Usage dashboard on real data: placeholder data replaced with real server-side usage queries, showing quota reset policy; only total tokens and request counts — cleaner information.
• Clear out-of-quota messaging: the compose / translate / summarize / profile endpoints uniformly detect quota blocks and show guided messaging when quota is exhausted.
• Frontend freezes eliminated for good: all synchronous blocking commands across the repo made async — a slow CAPI no longer hangs the whole app.
• Account entry improvements: adding accounts is smoother, error feedback is routed closer to its source, and guidance appears when AI is not configured.
• Fix: permanent quota switched to a cumulative basis with the time window hidden, removing the "this month vs permanent" confusion; usage panel period-section wrapping and copy improvements.
• Everything in v0.6.0 remains available: forward-as-attachment, profiles in AI context, font size tiers, system integration (mailto/.eml), and more.
• Windows x86-64 and ARM64 v0.7.0 officially released; macOS v0.7.0 released

v0.6.0 Release Notes

Forward as attachment, profiles in AI context, font size tiers — a more professional email experience

• Forward as attachment: the forward button becomes a split dropdown; the entire original message is packaged as a .eml (message/rfc822) attachment, fully preserving headers, body structure, and all attachments; both IMAP/CAPI protocols supported, with large-mail protection (>30MB suggests forward-with-original instead, 23–30MB warns).
• Contact profiles & relationship profiles: merged into a single detail panel, producing identity and relationship fields in one AI call; profile material prefers mails sent by the profiled person, supplemented with received mails (direction labeled) when insufficient.
• Profiles in AI writing context: user profiles and contact/relationship profiles are injected into AI compose, summarize, classify, and more — when AI replies on your behalf it already knows the other person's title and your shared history; when writing your own mail it follows your personal style.
• Org-structure info injection: for enterprise contacts (CAPI accounts), profile material queries the corporate directory in real time, injecting structured fields like name / company / department / title; viewing details auto-locates the person's department.
• Font size tiers: small / standard / large app-wide scaling, shared across the main window, independent reading windows, and independent compose windows; icons and badges stay at original size.
• UI polish: clearer mail / reading-window headers (sender and recipient regions separated, softer labels); divider lines deepened across all skins with clearer list hierarchy; enterprise directory member list highlights the selection and auto-scrolls.
• Security hardening: external-input escaping / sanitization, .eml parsing 50MB cap with nested defenses, attachment-save injection prevention
