Usurp more of the utils code than can be re-used without further dependencies in
helpers.
Split off specific parts in their own file.
After the helper/utils changes, update the rest of mu4e to take the changes into
account.
Emacs has several standard keybindings
C-x m compose-mail
C-x 4 m compose-mail-other-window
C-x 5 m compose-mail-other-frame
This patch fixes the creation of new mail buffers to respect the
latter two keybindings, C-x 4 m and C-x 5 m.
Note that there is already the variable mu4e-compose-in-new-frame
which if true opens in a new frame. That will still work for C-x m
and C-x 5 m, but if the user runs C-x 4 m, it switches to other-window
as it assumes the keybinding takes precedence. This behaviour can be
changed within mu4e~draft-open-file.
Use "_" as the title of that section so that it is less distracting
when sections are collapsed to get an overview of the library.
Using a separate section is useful because it reduces the risk of
accidentally into the middle of a library.
Placing two semicolons on an otherwise empty line helps to logically
"connect" the surrounding "paragraphs", which in (only) some cases
makes sense.
Previously the three paragraphs of the permission statement were not
connected to each other like this, which is perfectly fine. However
the preceding "This file is not part of GNU Emacs." line was connected
to the first paragraph, which does not make sense considering that the
latter is not connected two the second paragraph, which it relates to
more.
Once those two semicolons are gone, it also makes sense to remove
those from the second line.
Introduce a new variable, mu4e-compose-reply-ignore-address, which matches
addresses to be skipped when doing wide replies.
This is identical in behavior to messages-dont-reply-to-names from message.el
(which we default on).
This commit adds a global variable
mu4e-compose-forward-as-attachment. To enable choosing forwarding
method on a per-message basis would probably require either:
• changing the mu server backend so that it distinguishes between
inline forwarding and forwarding as attachment;
• changing the mu server backend so that it doesn’t return attachments
at all and making both inline and as attachment forwarding via
MIME (and also making mu4e actually display MIME-enclosed inline
emails).
mu4e was making a vain attempt to fontify the compose buffer; this
doesn't work because message (from which mu4e-compose-mode derives) uses
font-locking for that.
So, instead, remap the message-mode faces to the ones used for mu4e.
As discussed in issue #751, mu4e should tried to accommodate some
different ways of choosing the context.
We add a new policy `ask-if-none', that will only query the user if
there is no context yet; this is the new default for
mu4e-context-policy, i.e. what happens when entering the main view.
The default policy for mu4e-compose-context-policy is now `ask',
i.e. ask if none of the contexts match.
The idea is for the defaults to ask when we don't know a context, and we
can't determine one using the match functions; this is probably the
least confusing. When user gets annoyed by too many question, they can
tweak the behavior to their liking. I.e. 'ask questions first, shoot
later'
Document all of this.
