Thunderbird EWS

amaccuish

Just playing around with 144.0.1, trying to set up their new EWS support, I see the following error under gromox-http, anyone know if this is something client-side or server-side that needs to be changed?

[ews#156] Error: "archive" is not one of ["calendar", "contacts", "deleteditems", "drafts", "inbox", "journal", "notes", "outbox", "sentitems", "tasks", "msgfolderroot", "publicfoldersroot", "root", "junkemail", "searchfolders", "voicemail", "recoverableitemsroot", "recoverableitemsdeletions", "recoverableitemsversions", "recoverableitemspurges", "recoverableitemsdiscoveryholds", "archiveroot", "archivemsgfolderroot", "archivedeleteditems", "archiveinbox", "archiverecoverableitemsroot", "archiverecoverableitemsdeletions", "archiverecoverableitemsversions", "archiverecoverableitemspurges", "archiverecoverableitemsdiscoveryholds", "syncissues", "conflicts", "localfailures", "serverfailures", "recipientcache", "quickcontacts", "conversationhistory", "adminauditlogs", "todosearch", "mycontacts", "directory", "imcontactlist", "peopleconnect", "favorites", "mecontact", "personmetadata", "teamspaceactivity", "teamspacemessaging", "teamspaceworkitems", "scheduled", "orionnotes", "tagitems", "alltaggeditems", "allcategorizeditems", "externalcontacts", "teamchat", "teamchathistory", "yammerdata", "yammerroot", "yammerinbound", "yammeroutbound", "yammerfeeds", "kaizaladata", "messageingestion", "onedriveroot", "onedriverecylebin", "onedrivesystem", "onedrivevolume", "important", "starred", "archiv"]

Thank you team for merging 🙏

At least we get a bit further along. I'll leave this here if anyone is interested at looking in to it further, it seems to never proceed to downloading the hierarchy. Tested with Thunderbird 145.0b3. My lay person's guess is that Thunderbird have started to first implement an older EWS version?

Which gromox version you use?

So I reset Thunderbird, recorded a har as I went through setup, and then went through the har. I also looked through the ews code in Firefox. It looks like they filter out any non-mail folders. This is problematic because as far as I can see, grommunio is not returning the FolderClass in response to GetFolder AllProperties. This would fit with the issue I am facing which is after the account is set up, no folders and messages are shown.

https://github.com/thunderbird/thunderbird-desktop/blob/e7422cc1d82fcb4bfb8e0989e1ed3982d5f0f24c/rust/ews_xpcom/src/client.rs#L385

I've included a request/response pair below (edited for brevity). I have not looked at the wsd for EWS to see if this property is meant to be returned.

Additionally there is an error, I believe minor, that Thunderbird can't find the well known folder Archive: "E-3051: unknown distinguished folder id 'archive'"

amaccuish I am not sure whether Thunderbird is wrong for expecting the FolderClass in the response, or grommunio for not including it 🙏
