Task-2088884 (Mail: Use editable computed stored fields in composer)
Part-of: odoo/odoo#107356
RATIONALE
Improve usage of composer in comment or email mode: support batch-posting in
comment, support more configuration from templates, improve global model.
SPECIFICATIONS
Correctly update 'auto_delete' field
* add missing update in onchange, to either take value from template, either
fallback on default_get values as other fields;
* in comment mode, actual value for 'auto_delete' is True by default. Composer
value was not used and bypassed by a context value being True by default.
Context key support is removed, correctly replaced by the composer field
value itself;
Task-3035101 (Mail: Support batch-posting from composer)
Part-of: odoo/odoo#99482
RATIONALE
Improve usage of composer in comment or email mode: support batch-posting in
comment, support more configuration from templates, improve global model.
SPECIFICATIONS
Support a real res_ids field on mail.compose.message model. Instead of relying
on active_ids from context, store it once for all at composer level and use
it in code. Active_ids usage is still done at default_get level, using it to
populate the field.
Improve usage of domain, renamed to res_domain to match other document related
fields naming. Add support of a res_domain_user_id field allowing to set the
user from which the domain should be evaluated.
Composer now runs on a list of IDs. Mass mail mode and comment mode are now
distinct from running on a singleton or on more records. Rendered or raw
mode is not triggered by
* mass mailing mode: always display raw mode, whatever the number of records;
* comment mode: display rendered mode when having a single record (like the
previous comment mode). Display raw mode when having either no records
either at least two records.
Task-3035101 (Mail: Support batch-posting from composer)
Part-of: odoo/odoo#99482
Purpose is to rewrite value generation as code is messy with a lot of dict
updates, rewriting key on top of existing keys until reaching the final value.
In this commit we better split computation, to have computation that is static
(currently, posting a comment as composer holds final code) separated from
dynamic computation (posting a mass mailing, as rendering is done based on
qweb or inline template value).
It allows to better understand how composer and template fields are used when
sending emails or posting messages. This commit should not change anything
functionally, even if some values are weirdly computed. Future commits will
improve support of composer / template fields, notably through computed field
and less cross computation.
Also split sending methods: do a mailing in batch in case of mass mailing
(allowing commit per batch), and simply loop on records to post a message
in case of comment (or mass post).
Task-2710804 (Mail: Clean MailThread Posting API)

Purpose is to try to have code easier to read and to update by having a
common way of sorting / writing code. Reorder some fields definitions and
dictionaries, update docstrings, ... in mail applications or when invoking
mail thread API.
Additional stuff worth noting here
* add some tagged in tests helping debugging / choosing tests to execute;
* in a test about mail generation with server action: correctly check
body_html field, not body which comes from the mail.message inheritance
(currently filled due to a side effect but actual field to check is the
html one);
* add same check on input for ``_render_template_qweb`` as done on other
rendering methods (even if rendering on [False] should be supported);
* move code translation update from specific tests into main test class
(code update due to new translations, followup of odoo/odoo@f8c2b02abe);
Some test linting done here
* reorder mail_render tests, remove some duplicated tests;
* reorder mail_template tests, remove some duplicated tests;

Currently when creating a composer in mass mode
the composer always shows the 'mass mailing name' option
even when a mailing cannot be created.
This silently creates a regular mass mail.
This hides that option when selecting records of models
that do not inherit from thread. So that users do not falsly
believe a mailing will be created.

There were inconsistencies in the calls to `_render`.
* the view context could contain information that misled developers.
Indeed, the context and value of the view are not supposed to be found
in the rendering. Thus by calling `ir.qweb` with the name of the
template, we ensure that there is no unwanted information and in
addition the cache key is that of the name of the template which saves
a query.
* the context used for rendering was modified by a method on
`ir.ui.view`, except this is not information used by this model. There
is now a `_prepare_environment` method residing on `ir.qweb`. This
method allows to modify the value dictionary as well as the context in
which the rendering will be done. This preparation of the data as well
as my security check is done only once per rendering. This also saves
some queries
* Freeze options for rendering were inconsistent. It could be that
options on which rendering depends were not part of the cache key. Thus,
depending on the user who generated the generation of the rendering
function, there was or was not information in the template. For example
for automatic branding. This is no longer possible, because it is the
context that is used. The options serving as a cache key are only
recorded for information (for the profiling system for example). A
simplification of the `ir.qweb.field` models could be made.
The report rendering and call `ir.qweb` instead of `ir.ui.view`.

PURPOSE
This commit consolidates UTM usage across all applications.
Global purpose is to avoid having undesired side-effects, such as unlinking an
utm.source/utm.medium/utm.campaign and at the same time cascading the deletion
to various records without noticing.
SPECS
ALLOW MORE PEOPLE TO CLEAN UTM RECORDS
Currently, not even the system administrator can delete utm.mediums and
utm.sources (he can only delete campaigns).
These were considered as "technical records", but allowing some cleanup is
a good idea since these records are often automatically generated and can
create a lot of unnecessary noise in the database.
That's why we now allow the following groups to delete all UTM records
(sources, mediums and campaigns):
- group_system
- group_mass_mailing_user
- group_social_manager (enterprise)
PREVENT DELETION
For some use cases, removing an utm.source/utm.medium/utm.campaign would
cascade delete the related record, which was unintended / hidden side effect.
These combinations were secured by preventing to unlink:
- mailing.mailing source_id field
Trying to delete the utm.source will throw an error message
- mailing.mailing medium_id field
Trying to delete the utm.medium will throw an error message
- hr.recruitment.source source_id field
Trying to delete the utm.source will throw an error message
ADDING CLEAN ERROR MESSAGES
When trying to delete an UTM record that is linked with ondelete="restrict", we
improved the error message to give a clear explication to the user, e.g:
"You can't delete these UTM sources as they are linked to the following
mailings in the Mass Mailing APP, and deleting the source would break the
statistics: Newsletter"
SPECIFY 'ondelete' strategy
For a lot of uses of sources/mediums/campaigns, the 'ondelete' strategy was not
specified, leading to the confusion of "is this really how we want to handle
this?".
A lot of ondelete="set null" have been added in various field definitions to
ensure that this is the desired and logical strategy we want for that
specific model.
PREVENT REMOVING HARDCODED UTM RECORDS
In some functional flows, UTM records are hardcoded using their direct
record reference.
This is notably the case for the recruitment process and its creation of
aliases, and for the Email / SMS Marketing flows.
As deleting them would break these flows, we prevent their deletion in a
"api.ondelete" method.
ENFORCE NEW RULES WITH TESTS
A lot of python tests have been added to make sure we enforce the decisions
taken here above.

On the CRM module, the user can send an email to all the contacts
associated to the leads matching some criteria by (1) displaying the
list view, (2) applying a search filter, (3) clicking on the "EMAIL"
button and (4) checking a checkbox on the mail composer to ask the
server to use the active search. To do the same thing, the user can
(1) display the list view, (2) apply a search filter, (3) select all
the records and (3) click on the "EMAIL" button.
To avoid redundancy and improve the usability of the composer, we will
remove the search domain passing from the mail composer. Note that it
will still be possible to pass a search domain programmatically.
To improve the guidance of the mail composer, we will add helper
messages, update the labels and move the options in a dedicated pane.
The wording of the buttons will also be updated dynamically based on
the selected options.
Example: When the user enters something in the `mass_mailing_name` field
to create a new mass mailing campaign from the new message, the label of
the "Send" button will be set to "Send Mass Mailing" which gives more
indication on what will happen when the user clicks on it.

Currently most of mail related failure types are computed in mass mailing.
This is mainly due to historical reasons. We could move some of this
computation directly at mail level and store failure information directly
in mail.mail records.
SPECIFICATIONS
Overall purpose is to get near SMS implementation where base composer prepare
more advanced pre computation: blacklist, optout, seen list.
Detect and store failure types directly on mail.mail: blacklist, optout,
duplicates, missing email, wrong email, ...
State computation is moved from mass mailing to mail. It is also improved as
currently everything is based on "first recipient found". This is globally
valid for mass mailing who uses default recipients (customer). However when
dealing with generic mailing this is not true anymore.
We choose to store and update status on mail.mail records only when having
a single recipient. When several recipients are defined on a given mail.mail
we cannot really decide a status prior to sending it and skip this computation.
Mass mailing override now uses information from mail.mail to update its linked
traces as computation is now delegated to base composer model.

mail as
* "UNKNOWN" -> "unknown", a generic unknown of uncategorized error;
* "RECIPIENT" -> "mail_email_missing", indicates email address is
invalid;
* "SMTP" -> "mail_smtp", connection issue;
"BOUNCE" key is never used and removed. Actually we use a bounce state for

PURPOSE
Improve modeling and performances of mass mailing by manually updating trace
status instead of using complex computed fields and lessening fields usage.
Remove some fields and keep only relevant metrics to simplify and clean trace
model.
SPECIFICATIONS
In this commit we clean the way trace state is managed. Currently it is a
computed field based on several datetime fields. However this generates a
lot of noise in the table as well as unnecessary computation
* there are several columns (one for each state) storing datetime at
which status was reached. Generally only 2 or 3 contain relevant
information;
* state could be set in code directly to avoid a computed field based on
many triggers;
* recomputing it each time a date changes is not necessarily necessary;
* state value can always be updated manually as this is main done through
some automated server update (mailgateway, link clicks, ...);
As trace states and its triggers should not be updated manually it is better
to synchronize it in code flow. When there is an exception or update done
through sending or gateway status is updated as well accordingly. Various
datetime fields are also updated at the same time. In order to align with
notification model mail and sms trace status are updated to a classic field.
Only last status update is now kept as there is no need to store the entire
history of status change.
We keep only a datetime for relevant metrics: open, reply and click. Other
datetime bring no real value. Knowing when a trace was in error or bounced
is not necessary. Indeed exception generally indicates a server issue (at
sending), cancel indicates a data issue (at sending) and bounce depends on
customer email server.
Status update is removed as using write_date is sufficient. Once created
traces are updated only when an external event occurs (opened, replied, ...).
It allows to simplify trace model.
We also rename ignored field into canceled to match naming use through mail
and sms.
QUERY COUNTERS
This change has some positive update on query counters when sending mailings
as traces have less unnecessary status update compared to priori this change.

Currently there are differences between mail and sms error management
especially when sending them in batch (mass mode). Moreover cancel
(ignored) and error (exception) states meaning is not clear. Finally
some failure types management between mail and sms can be cleaned.
SPECIFICATIONS
Meaning of ignored / error we want to enforce now is
* error: there was something wrong at sending and user has an action to
perform, i.e. server failed -> check its logs;
* canceled: invalid recipients due to contact information or mailing
configuration (blacklist, opt out, void or invalid email or phone number).
In indicates issues linked to records themselves;
In this task we also add failure information granularity on mailing traces
linked to email like what is done currently on SMS. This can be related to
mailing (blacklist, optout, duplicates) or related to recipient (no recipient,
incorrectly formatted).
We also correctly distinguish optout from blacklist when sending SMS.
SPECIFIC USE CASES
* recipient without email / number: mail / sms is set as canceled, trace is
ignored;
* recipient with invalid email (no @) / number (formatting impossible):
mail / sms is set as canceled, trace is ignored;
-> we now distinguish when possible a void email from a wrong email using
a newly-added selection key (mail_email_missing);
* recipient with email / number blacklisted: mail / sms is canceled, trace
is ignored;
* recipient with email / number that optouted from mailing: mail / sms is
canceled, trace is ignored;
* recipient with email that bounces: mail is sent and will be set as bounce
when receiving bounce in gateway; trace follow same path;
* recipient with number that bounces: not supported as currently no support
of bounce through IAP;
* mail server error, IAP error: mail / sms is set as exception / error,
trace is set in exception;
This means we introduce new failure types on mailing.trace model to reflect
those failure types
* ``mail_missing``: missing email (different from wrong value);
* ``mail_bl``: blacklisted;
* ``mail_optout``: optouted;
* ``mail_dup``: duplicated email skipped during mass email send;
We introduce ``sms_optout`` on SMS and trace models as it was merged with
blacklist previously. Now both errors are distinguished.

This improvement allows user to review mail attachments that were sent using
composer in mass mail mode while creating a mass mailing on the fly. This is
achieved via `Action > Send email` menu and setting a mailing name.
For example, you sent different mails to different set of partners and you want
to check that you sent correct attachments and didn't miss anything. This
behavior is doable in Email Marketing apps. Before this commit you would need
to open different partners in Contacts app and check messages in the chatter.
Now attachments are displayed in composer.
STEPS:
* Install mass_mailing
* Open Contacts menu
* Select any number of records
* Click `Action > Send email`
* Set **Mass Mailing Name**
* Attach a file
* Send
* Open ``Email Marketing`` app
* Open the created mailing
* Check ``[Settings]`` tab
BEFORE: Attachments field is empty
AFTER: You can see the attachments sent to the partners
WHY: In 2014 attachments were added to mailing.mailing, but not to composer

In mass mailing access to partners when performing a mass mailing has been
done in batch to speedup computation [1]. Emails are put into a dictionary
allowing to find back the email based on partner_id.
However the matching between the partner and its emails is done using a
shortcut using the current document ID as partner ID. It works when performing
a mass mailing on partners but fails when performing a mass mailing on models
having message_get_default_recipients not returning only emails. Currently
in saas-14 main models return only emails (crm, event, mailing contacts) but
other models may encounter issues (applicants, tickets).
This commit fixes it by correctly matching partner id and its found email.

To avoid sending mail to an opted-out mass_mailing_contact with email address
that is not strictly an email address (a <a@a.com> instead of a@a.com),

In order to avoid sending mail indefinitely to a wrong email address,
Take the mail statistics for the recipient of the last 3 month :
if more than 5 mails bounced (with interval of more than 1 week)
the email is blacklisted.
Purpose
=======
- Apply the blacklist implementation to Improve mailing subscription to be more
compliant with the European GDPR law. Keep a list of people who does not want
to receive promotional emails (or mass mailing in general) anymore.
- Allows the recipient to update himself his mailing preferences
Specifications
===========
This commit is regrouping some main changes on mass mailing.
Apply Blacklist for following models through blacklist.mixin :
- crm.lead
- res.partner
- mail.mass_mailing.contact
- mail.channel.partner
- Opt_out per mailing list instead of per mailing contact.
- Replace opt_out by blacklist in crm.lead + res.partner models
- Added 'ignored' state for mass_mailing. Ignored = blacklisted, opted-out
Ignored email are not included into final statistics to avoid confusion.
- Unsubscribe(d) pages migrated from website_mass_mailing to mass_mailing module
as thoses pages should work without having the website module installed
Detailed implementation
===================
Mass-mailing :
- A blacklisted email is notified by the ban icon next to the email field.
(at the left of the email field for display purpose)
- Renaming the '_get_blacklist' method that was actually
searching opt_out list into 'get_opt_out_list'
- Opt out per mailing list : Add opt_out + related fields (for display and
ergonomy reasons) on the relational model
- Display relational model tree view instead of mass_mailing.contact tree
view when clicking on mass_mailing_list in kanban view
-> In order to be align between contact_nbr displayed in kanban tile and
the content of the tree view
-> mass_mailing contact is accesible via the user icon in this tree view
- Remove custom filters 'filter_contact_subscription' and
'filter_contact_unsubscription' as opt_out is not on mass_mailing.contact
model anymore
- Add 'is_public' to mailing list
The name of this mailing list can be seen (or not) by recipient in
the unsubscription page
If the mailing lists used in the mass mailing are not public,
the user in only informed that he has been unsubscribed.
If the mailing lists are public, the user is informed that he has been
unsubscribed from the mailing lists
and he has the choice to modify his subscription to all the public
mailing list he is or was subscribed to.
- Unsubscription Page :
- mass_mailing_contact :
Opt_out per mailing list, done by email and not by id, as multiple
contact can have the same email
The recipient can add/remove himself to/from the blacklist
The recipient can send a feedback about why he unsubscribed
- crm.lead + res.partner :
Once the recipient unsubscribe, he is automatically blacklisted
The recipient can 'Come back' and remove himself from the blacklist
if he changes his mind
- Show blacklist button parameter added in config :
The idea is to enable/disable the fact that the recipient can add
himself to the blacklist by showing or not the 'blacklist me' button
Only applies for mass_mailing.contact. The recipient, once
blacklisted, can always, no matter the value of this parameter,
'come back' and unblacklist himself
crm.lead + res.partner :
- Replace opt_out by blacklist in crm.lead + res.partner models.
As when a res.partner or crm.lead unsubcribe, we assume that the recipient
does not want to receive mass mailing anymore, at all, even if we adds him
to a mailing list afterwards. He is then blacklisted to avoid this.
With this behaviour, if a new lead is created with the same email address,
he won't be able to receive mail in mass_mode.
But he will still be able to receive '1 to 1' direct email.

Closes#25966
Purpose
=======
Improve mailing subscription to be more compliant with the European GDPR law.
Keep a list of people who does not want to receive promotional emails
(or mass mailing in general) anymore.
Specifications
===========
This commit is regrouping some main changes on mass mailing.
- Added blacklist : Avoid sending mass mailing to blacklisted recipient
(blacklisted = email address that doens't want to receive mass mailing anymore)
Detailed implementation
===================
Mail :
- Add Blacklist mechanism in mail module (NOT in mass-mailing) :
as we can send mass-mail without the mass-mailing module
- Unicity in email -> To avoid error in import, override the create and return
the existing record if any, else, create the record normally.
- Blacklisting is done by email address and is cross model.
Will apply to model that inherit the blacklist.mixin.
- field 'is_blacklisted' -> computed : check if email is in blacklist
+ search method to be able to filter on is_blacklisted
- When a email address is blacklisted, it will never get mass mailings anymore.
Even if the email address is added to another mailing lists
- Avoid sending notification to blacklisted recipients when sending email
in mass mail mode. If the recipient is blacklisted, we should not even send a
notification in the recipient's chatter for an email that he won't even
receive.
- When a email address is blacklisted, it can still get 'normal' mailings.
- The blacklist shoud be accessible in
Mass Mailing / Configuration / Blacklist
and Settings / Technical / Email / Blacklist
-> Renaming Settings / Technical / White / Black List config menu item
into Channel Moderation to avoid confusion with Mass Mail Blacklist
- Add indexes to the blacklist table (on email) to make it fast for access for
the different use cases
- _primary_email : attribute that must be overriden to specify which field must
be used as email in the blacklist mechanism.
- Filtering the blacklisted recipient in mail composer :
done in mail._get mail value()
In case of real mass mailing, we need the statistics to be computed in order
to know how many recipients were ignored in the mail.
So we cannot avoid sending mail but instead flag the mail as canceled.
Task ID 33224
- Email generated from mass mailing will have its own layout with internal css.
- strip_classes is removed from mail_message because mail client are now supporting
internal stylesheet. we need it for make mail responsive.
mail: manually removed classes from incoming mail body
Because we removed strip_classes from mail message body field because we want to
allow classes in outgoing mail to make it responsive but classes are not removed
from incoming mails so here we manually removed classes from incoming mail.

This commit removes the strange selection box based on a magic flag and
some strange methods returning a string. Instead just allow to send mass
mailing on all models inheriting from mail.thread using the is mail
thread flag.
Various addons are updated to remove the _mail_mass_mailing class
attribute used to determine mass mailing capability.
We consider people could send a mass mailing on every model inheriting
from mail.thread. It makes no sense to limit it to a given set of addons.
When you send a mass mailing to muiltiple partner, if some of them have
no email adresse, it can lead to errors because of the variable 'recips'
is not set if the first occurence in the 'for loop' has no email.
To fix this, we always set the variable 'recips' by replacing the 'elif'
close by a 'else' one
introduced in rev: https://github.com/odoo/odoo/commit/65ed4553a50fdbefc986b7d21f87a81c42b743c7
Before this commit, the filtering brought by commit ca989b6 did not work when
no email_to was present. Which is the case for mass-mailings based on
res.partner records.
OPW 728321
Closes#16745
The mass-mailing App suffered from severe issues due to its inability
to detect and handle duplicates "at the email level", and the absence
of any global blacklist system, leading to lack of user trust.
Mailing-lists typically include multiple records with the same email,
and it is critical to avoid sending them the same email several times.
A related problem is the unsubscription of an email that is present
in other records (duplicates). Opting out the first email should
automatically blacklist it for other records as well.
Ideally we should have a global blacklist table in order to
share the unsubscription requests globally across models (Leads,
Partners, Mailing-list contacts). It would also allow importing
it from other blacklist systems. (TODO for master)
This commit introduces a partial solution, made of several
small changes:
- In mail.mail: double-check that an outgoing email has the
correct status (`outgoing`) before sending it. This allows
adding emails in the queue and cancelling them before they
actually get sent.
- In crm.lead: force predictable recipients for mass-mailing,
by always using the email of the lead rather than the email
of the linked partner when there is one. This simplifies the
computation of the blacklist and seen list. Other areas in
the codebase already assume as much.
- In mass.mailing:
+ Before sending out a mailing-list batch, compute the
blacklist (all opted-out emails) and the seen_list
(emails who previously received this mail) to make
sure we only ever target valid recipients.
+ While delivering the mass-mailing, any email targeting
an address that is in the blacklist or "seen list" is
canceled before being sent. The corresponding statistics
entry is considered "not delivered".
Also updates the "seen list" continuously.
+ When a mass-mail belongs to a campaign with the
"unique AB/B testing" flag, the "seen list" is
common to the whole campaign, as an extra safety.
+ Auto-delete mass-mailing test messages sent with the
test wizard, to avoid polluting the mail_mail table
Note: this fix uses a simple regex for efficiently extracting
the blacklist in pure SQL from different models, and doing so,
assumes that each record only holds a single email
(no comma-separated adresses). This should be sufficient for
most cases. The regex:
([^ ,;<@]+@[^> ,;]+)
1. The merge of the "email_template" module into the "mail" module.
2. The send action of the mass mailing has been moved from the frontend to a cron, because it was too slow to send over 10,000 mails (the user's browser was blocked for 15 - 20 minutes). Mass mailings have now their own process in the kanban view.
3. Mails sent from the mail form are sent immediatly instead of from the mail queue (for instance, when you go to sales > customers > list view > select 2 -3 customers > More > Partner Mass Mailing).
4. Users have now the choice from which mailing list they want to unsubscribe when they click on the unsubscribe link at the bottom of the mail.
5. Mass mailings inherit from their campaign UTMs and mass mailing campaigns are linked to an UTM campaign.
6. Many little improvements
* [FIX] rename wrong mailing_type field and add missing fields when creating a mass mailing from the composer
* [FIX] coerce tooltip to an unicode string to avoid a json crash when locale produces a non unicode string for strftime(%B)
* [FIX] repair wrong sql statement computing statistics
- fixed keeping the original message for routing, only when choosing to reply in the
original thread (notification=True)
- auto delete sent emails explicitely
- mail_thread: routing: fixed replies always choosen even when replying to emails
with a specified reply_to (using ref_match in the algorithm)
- mail_thread: routing: instead of exclusive routing heuristics, use each case
as a fallback of the previous.
