Two bugs with one shape: the interface confidently told you something
that was not so.
Connecting Gmail without a registered OAuth client said "Det er der
allerede." Thirteen different situations answered a plain `conflict`, and
the frontend renders that as "that already exists" — which for four of
them is not vague but wrong. An unconfigured Gmail is not a Gmail that is
already connected; a second factor that is off is not one that is on; the
Inbox is not a project that already exists somewhere else. Those four
have their own codes now, and their own sentences.
The mail-to-task address came out as todo+…@localhost. VERDANDE_SMTP_FROM
defaults to verdande@localhost and the domain was taken from it
unconditionally, so an instance with no mail server handed out an address
that looks real, can never receive anything, and gives no hint which of
the two it is. The default no longer wins over the public hostname, and
the response now carries whether a mail server exists at all — because
even with the right domain, nothing routes to it until one does.
errors.go has always claimed the code list is kept in one place "so the
frontend's mapping can be checked against it". Nothing checked it, and
the mapping was missing bad_request. Now a test reads both files and
fails on a code with no message.

Gmail now connects. Authorisation-code flow with PKCE, the verifier kept
server-side rather than in a cookie — the callback is a top-level
navigation from Google, and a SameSite=Lax cookie is the kind of thing
that works until a browser tightens its defaults. State is checked, the
attempt expires after ten minutes, and the spent verifier is deleted
rather than left at rest.
Scope is gmail.readonly and the sync is one-way on purpose. Unstarring a
message does not delete the task; completing the task does not touch the
mailbox. Two-way would mean deciding what happens when both sides
changed, and the only honest answer is a sync model far larger than the
feature. The query carries newer_than:30d so connecting an account with
a decade of starred mail does not create a decade of tasks.
The update check is off unless the operator turns it on, asks GitHub at
most every six hours, and sends nothing about the instance — no
identifier, no version, no counts. A development build never reports an
update: somebody running their own tree is ahead of every release, and
telling them otherwise trains them to ignore the notice. Only
administrators see it, because only they can act on it.
