Not Zed e71de4c021 New function to fold headers.
2000-09-28  Not Zed  <NotZed@HelixCode.com>

        * camel-mime-utils.c (header_fold): New function to fold headers.

2000-09-27  Not Zed  <NotZed@HelixCode.com>

        * camel-mime-parser.c (folder_scan_header): If we had an empty
        header, then it must be end of the headers too.
        (folder_scan_init): No we dont need to init the outbuf with a nul
        terminator.

        * camel-folder-summary.c (camel_folder_summary_set_uid): New
        function to reset the uid to a higher value.

        * providers/mbox/camel-mbox-summary.c (camel_mbox_summary_sync):
        "something failed (yo!)" what sort of crap is this?  Fixed all the
        indenting again, what wanker keeps running stuff through indent?
        (message_info_new): Check the uid we loaded off the disk, if it
        existed already, assign a new one.  If it didn't then make sure
        the nextuid is higher.

        * camel-charset-map.c: New file, used to build a large unicode
        decoding mapping table, and use it to determine what is the
        lowest charset a given word can be encoded with.  Uses tables from
        libunicode's source.

        * camel-internet-address.c (internet_encode): Use
        header_phrase_encode to properly encode the fullname, as required.
        refixed indenting.  Who keeps doing that?
        (camel_internet_address_find_address): Changed fatal return/warnings
        into assertions.

        * camel-mime-utils.c (header_raw_append_parse): Check : explicitly
        (removed from is_fieldname() macro).
        (camel_mime_special_table): Changed to short, so we can represent
        more bit types.
        (quoted_encode): Take a mask of the safe chars for this encoding.
        (header_address_decode): Removed a #warning that makes no sense
        anymore.
        (header_decode_date): Fixed the 'broken date' parser code, if it
        ever decoded it it just threw away the result.
        (header_encode_string): Use better charset matching for encoding
        strings as well.

2000-08-31  Not Zed  <NotZed@HelixCode.com>

        * providers/mh/camel-mh-summary.c (camel_mh_summary_sync): Save
        the index if we do a sync.
        (camel_mh_summary_check): Save the index here too.  Probably.

			A generic Messaging Library


                                   ----
				

Introduction:
-------------

Camel will be a generic messaging library. It will evntually support 
the standard messaging system for receiving and sending messages.
It aims at being the backend for the future gnome-mailer system.

The name "camel" stands for ... nothing. Open area of development there.
You know, that "bazaar" thing. Maybe could we organize a big contest on
gnome-list to find the best explanation :)

Camel draws heavily from JavaMail and the IMAP4rev1 RFC. People
wanting to hack on a provider should read the JavaMail API
specification, but CMC and MAPI are of interest too.

Please, before starting anything, wait for me to finish the abstract
classes. Some parts are not definitive yet.

 
Organization:
-------------

The library is roughly a set of abstract classes, some kind of generic
"interfaces" (idl interfaces, not java interfaces ).

Particular implementations are called providers.

Here are the basic objects:

* CamelService : an abstract class representing an access to a server.
Handles the connection and authentication to any server.

* CamelStore (CamelService): A hierarchy of folders on a server.

* CamelFolder : An object containing messages. A folder is always
associated with a store.

* CamelMessage : An object contained in folders. Is defined by a set
of attributes and a content. (Attributes include: the date it was
received, the sender address, .....)

* CamelTransport (CamelService): A way to send messages.
