1895801 - Allow fetching message headers from DB by EWS ID

Status: RESOLVED FIXED

(Thunderbird :: General, task)

Description

[Sean Burke [:leftmostcat]]

In order to allow keeping messages in sync with Exchange instances, we need to be able to reference them by EWS ID, including fetching them from the message header database. The database currently allows fetching message headers by message key (u32), message ID (corresponding to the Message-ID header), or Gmail ID.

Matrix discussion led to the conclusion that a generic "service ID" field isn't feasible given current constraints and the variety of forms services use for their IDs. None of the existing methods can be co-opted, so for the time being, we'll add an EWS-specific "fetch message header" function.
