Takes the flat module count from 66 to 42, continuing what admin/ and
calendar/ started.
lib/mailbox/ archiveDate, emptyFolder, folderMove, labelTree,
mailboxName, mailboxRoute
lib/sieve/ sieve, sieveApply, sieveFolders
lib/input/ keyboard, swipe, touch, listSelection, dropUpload
lib/notify/ notify, webpush, webpushEnable
lib/sw/ swCache, swFacts, staleBuild
lib/text/ html, markdown, text, emlName
FOUR THINGS THE FILENAMES GET WRONG, each checked by reading the file
rather than trusting what it is called:
- appFolder is not a mailbox. It is the `ihasmail` folder in JMAP
*Files*, where the client keeps signature images and synced settings.
It stays flat.
- format holds no formatting of text. It re-exports the date and clock
formatters, so it belongs with dates/datetime, not with text/.
- preview is the file viewer deciding what it can show without
downloading, and source is where to point someone asking for this
instance's AGPL source. Neither is about text.
- notify is not Web Push. It is the tab title, the favicon badge and
the new-mail sound -- in-app notification, which is why it sits with
webpush rather than under sw/ with the service worker's own concerns.
threadScroll stays flat too: it decides where a conversation opens, which
is view state rather than a gesture, and input/ is honest only if
everything in it interprets something the reader did.
No behavior change. Almost every reference was on the @/ alias; eight
relative imports in files that did not move, or that moved away from a
sibling, needed rewriting by hand.

ihasmail
Immutable webmail for Stalwart Mail Server. Mail, calendars, contacts, files and filters in one app that works as well on a phone as on a desktop — and a container with nothing to persist.
ihasmail talks only JMAP to Stalwart. There is no database, no IMAP or SMTP,
and with IMMUTABLE=1 no writable filesystem either: everything durable,
settings included, belongs to Stalwart, so the container is disposable.

What's in it
- Mail — conversations, labels, search operators, keyboard shortcuts, scheduled and undo send, invitations and RSVP, filters made from a message
- Calendar — month, week, day and agenda views, recurrence, attendees and free-busy
- Contacts — address books, groups, vCard import and export
- Files — browse, upload, move, share
- Signature checking — S/MIME signed mail verified as you read it
- Settings that follow the account, kept in the account's own storage on Stalwart
- On a phone — swipe to archive or delete, pull to refresh, hold to select
- Administration — a dashboard, accounts, groups, mailing lists, roles, tenants and domains, each shown only when the Stalwart role allows it
- Ten interface languages and twelve themes — the nine translations are marked Beta until a native speaker has read them
- Platform — installable PWA, Web Push,
mailto:handler, no credentials in the browser, strict CSP
The long version is FEATURES.md and ihasmail.org.
Requirements
Stalwart 0.16 or newer — sign-in refuses anything older, by name. Tested against 0.16.22; what changed in each release is in KNOWN-ISSUES.md.
- No Stalwart yet? ihasmail-oneshot deploys a new Stalwart and ihasmail together on one host, in one command.
- On Stalwart 0.15? stalwart-migrator upgrades it in place, or stay on the
stalwart-0.15-supportrelease.
Quick start (Docker)
cp .env.example .env
# edit: STALWART_URL=https://mail.example.com and APP_SECRET=$(openssl rand -base64 48)
docker compose up --build -d
# → http://localhost:8080 — put a reverse proxy in front for TLS
Or pull the published image, ghcr.io/coffey-labs/ihasmail. Releases are
weekly, so it is usually a few days behind main.
People sign in with their Stalwart mailbox credentials. An account with two-factor authentication needs an app password, created in Stalwart's own settings.
Everything else — TLS, running immutably, several Stalwart servers, settings the installation decides, every environment variable — is in Installing and Configuring.
Development
npm install
npm run dev:mock # built-in mock Stalwart ([email protected] / demo)
npm test
Architecture, the mock's switches and how versions are numbered are in CONTRIBUTING.md.
