Release Notes
- IMAP sync resilience & gap-fill repair – Improved initial sync by switching from sequential ID to UID-based search, preventing missed messages when new mail arrives during download.
- Retry & batch downloading – Added automatic retry on network failures; downloads now occur in small batches to reduce timeout risks.
- Rate-limit detection – Bichon now detects IMAP server rate limiting and surfaces clear user alerts, preventing confusion about “stuck” syncs.
- Live progress UI – Real-time progress feedback during missing-mail repair and batch sync operations.
This release includes all features previously introduced during the 2.x alpha cycle.
