Crate rmut_session 

rmut’s mail session: an open mailbox and the operations over it.

Everything here works without a screen. A front end owns the menus, the keys and the drawing, and drives a Session for the rest: what is in the mailbox, what is selected, what a mark or a sync did. Outcomes leave as Notices through the sink the front end installs, so an operation never has to know how it will be shown.

Structs

CommandRun

What a command line did, for the front end to finish and report.

Compose

A draft file going through editor → send/postpone/discard.

ComposeBase

Snapshot of the message being replied to / forwarded, taken when the compose flow starts.

ComposeSetup

Facts

What the session knows about the open folder without asking the connection. Cheap, and unchanged while a job is in flight.

Held

A message that has been sent but is waiting out $undo_send before it goes anywhere. The finalized text is ready to transmit; the draft it came from is kept whole, so cancelling puts the compose menu back exactly as it was.

Hook

A compiled hook: the pattern its message must match, and what the hook carries (an enter-command line, or an Fcc mailbox).

Imap

A handle on the connection: the facts, and the thread doing the talking.

Msg

MsgMark

One message’s state before a step touched it. The path is the identity: it only changes when the mailbox is written, and a write drops the whole stack.

Session

One open mailbox and everything rmut knows about it.

UndoStep

One undoable step: what it was, the messages as they stood before it, and where the cursor was.

Enums

Answer

An answer on its way back in.

Ask

A question waiting on an answer.

AskKind

Which question is being answered, and everything the operation was holding when it stopped to ask. The front end carries it back untouched, so nothing about a half-done operation lives in the front end.

ComposeKind

Done

What a job left behind.

FrontOp

The functions a session cannot carry out, because they are about the display rather than the mail: a menu to open, a screen to repaint, an editor to hand the terminal to. The session has done whatever checking it can (a mailbox with unsaved changes will not be left, an unconfigured query will not be prompted for) before handing one of these back, so a front end can act on it directly.

Function

One thing the index can be told to do, under the name mutt gives it. A front end binds keys or menu items to these; bind and :exec name them straight out.

Job

What the session asks the connection to do.

Key

The keystroke answering a Ask::Key. Other is anything the question does not recognise, which usually calls it off.

Manage

One folder-management action, its folder names already stripped of the imap:account/ prefix.

Outcome

What came of running a function.

PageSpot

Where on the visible page the cursor should land.

PatternOp

The pattern operations, mutt’s D/U/T/Ctrl+T.

Request

Something only the front end can do, handed back for it to honour or refuse.

Security

PGP treatment for an outgoing draft, chosen at the send prompt.

SidebarOp

What to do with the mailbox pane.

SortKey

ThreadOp

Wants

What a line answer is, so a front end can help the user give one.

Functions

account_password

Run the account’s password command once per session. OAuth tokens expire, so those are fetched fresh for every connection instead.

default_from

default_quote_re

mutt’s $quote_regexp default.

draft_full

The draft as a full message: the file as edited, with any withheld header block put back in front.

expand_tilde

A path with a leading ~ expanded, as mutt does everywhere it takes one.

header_value

First value of a (single-line) header in a draft head block.

parse_sort

“[reverse-]date|from|subject|size|threads” from the config.

pipe_to

Run a shell command with bytes on its stdin.

run_sendmail

With rcpts the addresses go on the command line (a bounce keeps its Resent-To out of -t’s reach); otherwise -t reads To/Cc/Bcc.

send_via_smtp

wrap_order

Visit order for a wrapping scan over n entries starting after (before, when backwards) sel: each index paired with a flag set once the walk passed the end (start). The starting index comes last, so a lone match under the cursor still counts as a wrap.
