12. Before completing work, ensure that no design docs are left out of sync
13. Plans go into docs/plans/*.md. These may not be kept in sync, as they are just for brainstorming.
14. Database migrations are automatically created via `flask db migrate -m 'message'`. NEVER create migrations by hand.
15. In the technical documentation, code should be used sparingly. Also, when needed, focus on the APIs, and only use snippets.

# Email Organizer
A self-hosted AI-powered email organization system that automates folder sorting, prioritization, and rule recommendations through natural language configuration.
A self-hosted email organization system that automates folder sorting and management through natural language configuration.
## Core Value Proposition
- **Natural Language Rules**: Define email organization logic in plain English instead of writing sieve/filter rules
- **Smart Separation**: Automatically categorize marketing emails, receipts, and transactional messages
- **Adaptive Intelligence**: Learns your preferences to star important emails and suggest new organizational patterns
- **Natural Language Rules**: Define email organization logic in plain English instead of writing complex filter rules
- **Smart Separation**: Automatically categorize emails into custom folders based on your rules
- **IMAP Integration**: Sync and manage folders directly from your email server
- **User Authentication**: Secure multi-user system with individual configurations
## Technical Overview
**Stack**:
- Backend: Flask (Python 3.10+)
- Frontend: HTMX + AlpineJS + DaisyUI (Tailwind CSS)
- Database: PostgreSQL
- AI: OpenAI-compatible API endpoints
- IMAP: Direct server integration
**Key Components**:
1. **Rule Engine**: Converts natural language rules → executable classification logic
2. **Email Processor**: Polls IMAP server, applies AI classifications, moves messages
3. **Recommendation System**: Analyzes usage patterns to suggest new folders/rules
1. **Authentication System**: User registration, login, and session management
2. **Folder Management**: Create, edit, and organize email folders with natural language rules
3. **IMAP Service**: Direct integration with email servers for folder synchronization
4. **User Interface**: Modern, responsive UI with dynamic updates
## Getting Started
### Prerequisites

```
## Roadmap
### Milestone 1: Prototype (Current Focus)
- [ ] Core infrastructure setup
- [ ] Basic UI for rule configuration
- [ ] Mock email processing pipeline
- [ ] Database schema implementation
## Features
### Future Milestones
- [ ] MVP - enter your imap server. You list out folders and rules, and once a day emails in the "Pending" folder will be reorganized.
- [ ] "Import" your list of folders from your imap server
- [ ] Polling every 5 minutes, working off recent emails since last poll
- [ ] Label support for services like gmail
- [ ] Generate config to automate integration into imap servers like dovecot or gmail or proton
- [ ] Supporting auth / multi user. Admin controls the list of users, users control their folders.
- [ ] Making a paid, hosted version
- [ ] Auth via google / facebook / etc.
- [ ] Automatically star based off of your habits
### Current Implementation
- **User Authentication**: Complete user registration and login system with password validation
- **Folder Management**: Create, edit, delete, and toggle email organization folders
- **IMAP Integration**: Configure and test connections to email servers
- **Folder Synchronization**: Import existing folders from IMAP servers
- **Natural Language Rules**: Define organization rules in plain English
- **Priority System**: Organize folders with priority levels
- **Email Metrics**: Track email counts and recent email information
### User Interface
- **Modern Design**: Clean, responsive interface using DaisyUI
- **Dynamic Updates**: HTMX for seamless UI interactions without page reloads
- **Modal System**: Forms and configuration in intuitive modal dialogs
- **Real-time Feedback**: Immediate visual feedback for all operations
## Architecture
The application follows a modular architecture with clear separation of concerns:
- **Frontend Layer**: HTMX + AlpineJS + DaisyUI for dynamic user interface
- **Application Layer**: Flask blueprints for modular feature organization
- **Data Layer**: PostgreSQL with SQLAlchemy ORM for data persistence
- **Service Layer**: IMAP service for email server communication
For detailed architecture information, see [System Architecture](docs/design/system-architecture.md).
## Data Model
The system uses two main entities with a one-to-many relationship:
**Users**
| Column | Type | Description |
|--------|------|-------------|
| id | UUID | Primary key |
| email | VARCHAR | Unique identifier |
| password_hash | BYTEA | Argon2-hashed |
| imap_config | JSONB | Encrypted server settings |
| id | Integer | Primary key |
| first_name | String | User's first name |

| email | String | Unique identifier |
| password_hash | String | Hashed password |
| imap_config | JSON | Server settings |
| created_at | DateTime | Account creation timestamp |
| updated_at | DateTime | Last update timestamp |
**Folders**
| Column | Type | Description |
|--------|------|-------------|
| id | UUID | Primary key |
| user_id | UUID | Foreign key |
| name | VARCHAR | Display name |
| rule_text | TEXT | Natural language rule |
| priority | INT | Processing order |
| id | Integer | Primary key |
| user_id | Integer | Foreign key to user |
| name | String | Display name |
| rule_text | Text | Natural language rule |
| priority | Integer | Processing order (0=normal, 1=high) |
| organize_enabled | Boolean | Rule active status |
| total_count | Integer | Total emails in folder |
| pending_count | Integer | Emails to process |
| recent_emails | JSON | Recent email metadata |
| created_at | DateTime | Folder creation timestamp |
| updated_at | DateTime | Last update timestamp |
For detailed data model information, see [Data Model](docs/design/data-model.md).
## Development Environment
The development environment includes:
- **PostgreSQL Database**: For data persistence
- **Dovecot IMAP Server**: For testing email integration
- **Docker Compose**: For easy service orchestration
### Development Services
- **Database**: localhost:5432 (email_organizer_dev)
- **IMAP Server**: localhost:1143
- **Test Users**:
- user1@example.com / password1
- user2@example.com / password2
## Roadmap

## Database Schema
### User Model Updates
The existing `User` model already has the `imap_config` field:
```python
class User(Base, UserMixin):
# ... existing fields ...
imap_config = db.Column(db.JSON) # Store IMAP connection details
# ... existing fields ...
```
### Folder Model Updates
The `Folder` model now includes a new field for storing recent email information:
```python
class Folder(Base):
# ... existing fields ...
recent_emails = db.Column(db.JSON, default=list) # Store recent email subjects with dates
# ... existing fields ...
```
### IMAP Configuration Structure
```json

"server": "imap.gmail.com",
"port": 993,

## Implementation Dependencies
### New Dependencies
Add to `requirements.txt`:
```
imapclient==3.0.1
```
### Database Migration
No database migration is required as the existing `imap_config` field in the `User` model is sufficient.

## Success Metrics
1. **Functional**: Users can configure IMAP connections, test them, and sync folders successfully.
2. **Usability**: The UI is intuitive and provides clear feedback for all operations.
3. **Reliability**: IMAP connections are stable and handle various server configurations.
4. **Performance**: Folder synchronization completes in reasonable time.
5. **Security**: User credentials are handled securely.
## Acceptance Criteria
Based on the original requirements:
1.**Verify that a user can enter their imap server's connection details, and that they can be saved**
- Users can access the IMAP configuration modal
- Form validation ensures all required fields are filled
- Configuration is saved to the user's `imap_config` field
2.**Verify that, once the connection is made, the list of folders are created for that user, copying the name and structure from IMAP**
- Connection testing validates the IMAP server access
- Folder synchronization fetches all available folders
- Folders are created in the local database with appropriate names
3.**Verify that nested folders are just created with slashes in the name**
- Nested folder names from IMAP servers are preserved with slash notation
- Display names maintain the hierarchical structure
4.**Verify that a failed connection attempt gives the user a validation error message and allows them to retry**
- Connection failures show clear error messages
- Users can modify their configuration and retry the connection
- Form validation prevents submission with invalid data
## Implementation Plan
### Phase 1: Core IMAP Service
1. Create `app/imap_service.py` with basic IMAP connection functionality
2. Implement connection testing logic
3. Add folder listing and synchronization
### Phase 2: UI Integration
1. Create IMAP configuration modal template
2. Add routes for IMAP configuration and testing
3. Update sidebar to include IMAP settings option
### Phase 3: Testing and Validation
1. Write unit tests for IMAP service
2. Write integration tests for IMAP routes
3. Test with various IMAP server configurations
### Phase 4: Error Handling and Polish
1. Add comprehensive error handling
2. Improve user feedback and validation messages
3. Optimize performance and reliability
This design provides a comprehensive approach to implementing IMAP connectivity while maintaining the existing application architecture and following the established patterns.
5. **Security**: User credentials are handled securely.
