v2 release is all about the new local messages cache
feature
The local store is currently implemented only for the tutanota
accounts, see respective issue #32. Support for protonmail
account types is under review (there is a bridge thing).
New features
- Caching all the
emails
,contacts
andfolders
in the local database (which is stored indatabase.bin
file under the app settings directory). App syncs the changes into the local database automatically and in a reactive way. So this feature can be treated as a dynamic incremental backup. Attachments ignored. - Exploring the local database via GUI, including the offline mode: navigating between folders, viewing emails, switching plain/conversation mails view mode, etc.
- Improved unread mail calculating. Before v2, unread notifications for
tutanota
accounts was enabled only for a singleinbox
folder and only for the latest 50 emails, see details in #30. Enablinglocal store
allows getting unread notifications without notable delay and for all the folders since app takes the unread value from the database instead of the periodic server polling.
The beta testing goal is to make sure the above-listed features work stable enough, so feedback is welcomed.
See on the below screenshot how to enable the local store
feature:
Initial database bootstrapping might take a while, depending on the amount of data and account history length (timeout is currently set to 3 minutes).
What makes the local store viewer different from the original Web Client
- Conversation view mode (ref1 / ref2).
- Showing unread mail count on each folder (ref1 / ref2).
- Functional while offline.
