The Communications tab is now an admin-only search over captured Gmail
(email_* tables), part of consolidating on the fundraising grid + email
capture as the canonical system of record.
- New GET /api/email/activity (admin-enforced server-side): filter by
investor / mailbox / direction with free-text search over subject,
snippet, and sender. Query logic in db.query_email_activity.
- Soft-delete honored on the per-mailbox sighting (emails carry no
deleted_at; deletion lives on email_account_messages).
- Direction decided at the email level (outbound if the sender is one of
our mailboxes), mirroring digest_builder.
- Graveyard investors are hidden from the filter dropdown (CRM-wide
graveyard=0 convention) but their email stays visible in the list and
findable by free-text search — this is an audit surface.
- Communications page rewritten to render the panel; the classic manual
"Log Communication" form is retired (the grid context menu remains the
manual-log path). Nav item + page are admin-only.
- Tests: email_integration/test_email_activity_panel.py (filters,
per-sighting soft-delete, roll-ups, graveyard handling, route 401/403);
full suite 22/22. Frontend render verified via a jsdom mount smoke test
plus the pinned classic-runtime Babel transform.
Code-only, no schema migration (version migrations are no-ops).
insert_email's recipients loop did `for a in parsed.get(kind, [])`, but the parser sets
reply_to=None when there is no Reply-To header, so .get returns None (key present) and the
loop raised 'NoneType' object is not iterable — aborting the entire Gmail backfill on the
first such email (i.e. almost immediately). Fixed with `or []`. Regression test
test_insert_email.py (reply_to=None, all-None recipients, happy path).
Because the scheduler intentionally skips error-status accounts (no retry storms), an
errored mailbox would never resume on its own. "Sync now" now clears error status first,
so it is an explicit retry; backfill resumes from its saved cursor and dedups by
Message-ID, so nothing is re-captured.
