################################################################################
PyMailGUI user configuration settings.

Email scripts get their server names and other email config options from
this module: change me to reflect your account names, info, and preferences.
This module also specifies some widget style preferences applied to the GUI,
as well as message Unicode encoding policy and more as of version 3.0.

This file defines the base set of available configurations, and assigns their
defaults.  All names here not starting with a "_" are configuration settings.
The term "book" here means _Programming Python, 4th Ed_, this code's origin.

See also:
1) The local textConfig.py here, for customizing PyEdit pop-ups made by
   PyMailGUI, and some settings shared by PyEdit popups and View/Write windows.

2) The account-specific examples in ../MailConfigs that extend, customize,
   and in some cases further document the base configuration settings here.

Warning: PyMailGUI won't run without most variables here: keep a backup copy!
Caveat: somewhere along the way this started using mixed case inconsistently...;
TBD: we could get some user settings from the command line too, and a configure
dialog GUI would be better, but this common module file suffices for now.

[4.0] the end of this file now has a hook for running other config files in
this module's scope, to support multiple accounts usage (e.g., GUI launcher).

# For fonts, use ('family', size, 'style'), where style is space-separated
# words including 'bold', 'normal', 'italic'.  For colors (bg=background and
# fg=foreground), use 'colorname' or hexstr '#RRGGBB'.  None means use defaults.
# View window font/color can also be set interactively in PyEdit's Tools menu.
# SEE ALSO:
# -The setcolor.py example in the GUI part (ch8) to select custom colors

# -File textConfig.py: font/color/size settings here apply to PyMailGUI
#  windows only, and override those in textConfig.py (used for PyEdit popups).
# MORE FONT NOTES:
# -listfont => use a *fixed-width* (monospace) family for best column alignment
# -viewfont => any font works, but fixed-width retains original message spacing
# -fixed-width families include 'courier', 'consolas', and 'lucinda console'

# to Unicode encodings until a new bytes-friendly email package parser is shipped
# which can handle Unicode encodings more accurately on a message-level basis.

# else uses values here across entire session.  Default='latin-1' if GUI Cancel.
# IN ALL CASE, falls back on UTF-8 if your encoding setting or input does not
# work for the text being sent (e.g., ascii chosen for reply to non-ascii text,
# or non-ascii attachments).  The email package is pickier than Python about 
# names: latin-1 is known (uses qp MIME), but latin1 isn't (uses base64 MIME).

# non-ASCII headers, as well as non-ASCII names in email addresses in headers,
# in composed messages when they are sent.  None means use the UTF-8 default,
# which should work for most use cases.  Email names that fail to decode are 
# dropped (the address part is used).  Note that header decoding is performed 
# automatically for _display_, according to header content, not user settings.
#===============================================================================

headersEncodeTo = None     # how to encode non-ASCII headers sent (None=UTF-8)

#===============================================================================

skipTextOnHtmlPart = False       # do not show html part in PyEdit popup too

# (Optional) The maximum number of mail headers or messages that will be 
# downloaded on each load request.  Given this setting N, PyMailGUI fetches at 
# most N of the most-recently arrived mails.  Older mails outside this set are 
# not fetched from the server, but are displayed as empty/dummy emails.  If this
# is assigned to None (or 0), loads will have no such limit.  Use this name if
# you have very many mails in your inbox, and your Internet or mail server
# speed makes full loads too slow to be practical.  PyMailGUI also loads only 
# newly-arrived headers, but this setting is independent of that feature.
#===============================================================================

fetchlimit = 50            # maximum number headers/emails to fetch on loads

# (Optional, for reply) If True, the Reply operation prefills the reply's Cc 
# with all original mail recipients, after removing duplicates and the new sender.
# If False, no CC prefill occurs, and the reply is configured to reply to the 
# original sender only.  The Cc line may always be edited later, in either case.

# The SSL setting takes priority over TLS if both are "on", and plain non-SSL
# mode is used if both are "off".  You may also need to add a port number to
# the end of your POP or SMTP server name string: 'pop.secureserver.net:995'.

# May2016: As of Python 3.5, socket.sendall() used by smtplib now applies a
# timeout to total operations (e.g., a full email content send), not to each
# partial data transfer performed during an operation.  Both for this and
# general usage, PyMailGUI's smtp timeout was increased from 20 to 120 secs
# for large emails on slow smtp servers, and moved here for easy adjustment.
# poplib (for fetches) reads by lines and is not impacted by the Python 3.5
# change, but its timeout was increased too for robustness.  Without timeouts,
# PymailGUI cannot be closed in the GUI if any server transaction hangs.

# be too small for some platforms and users.  Use ('family', size, 'style') for
# font, where style is space-separated words including 'bold', 'normal' (which
# is the non-bold default), and 'italic'.  None means use Tk/tkinter default.
# Unlike the mail's text (initialized to "viewfont" above), there is no way to
# set this font in the GUI itself (mail text has a menu option in its Tools).

#===============================================================================
# [4.0] Specify number of days to retain files in the temporary parts save
# folder, TempParts.  Email parts are saved there when selected for viewing,
# and auto-cleaned when PyMailGUI starts up.  If you prefer to retain all
# temporary parts, set this to None to disable auto-clean.  These files can
# accumulate and consume space, and are not used except for mail views.
# Note that this setting is not account-specific: there is just one TempParts.

daysToRetainTempParts = 30    # 1=one day, 7=one week, None=turn off auto-clean


#===============================================================================
# [4.0] Declare the file types, via their filename extensions, that PyMailGUI
# is allowed to open for email parts coded as "application".  These parts will
# be opened as if clicked in a file-explorer GUI, and rely on program/app
# associations on your computer.  A file will fail to open if no program/app is
# associated to open it, but others automatically open handler programs (e.g.,
# parts ending in ".xls" may open in Excel if it is installed on your device).
#
# Opening is still subject to the approval settings and prompts configured
# elsewhere in this file (okayToOpenParts, verifyPartOpens, and splitOpensAll).
# Use all-lowercase extensions in this list; message part names are mapped
# to lowercase before checking for matches to the list's items.  This setting
# applies to main MIME type "application" only; "text" types (including HTML),
# "image", "audio", and "video" are opened with more specialized techniques.
# This could use MIME subtype instead of extension, but the latter is absolute.
#
# CAUTION: do not add extensions of filetypes that may contain macros or pose 
# other security concerns, unless you are willing to take the risk of opening
# their content.  Excel types with macros such as ".xlsm" and ".xlsb", for
# example, may contain macros run when opened; if you add their extensions
# here, be sure to click or Split+open such parts from trusted sources only.
# Even ".zip" files can be malicious in some unzip programs: open with care!
