iOS is the one client none of the mail autoconfiguration reaches: Apple
Mail reads neither Mozilla autoconfig nor Autodiscover for IMAP, so
adding an account means the device probing for ports - and a probe that
meets a filtered port waits out a TCP timeout and reports the account as
unverifiable, which the person reads as a wrong password.
A profile states the hosts and the ports instead, and carries mail,
calendars and contacts in one install. It invents none of them: site.yaml
names a PACC document - the standard defined to be fetched from the mail
domain itself - and every host, port and collection path comes from
there, so the server is described in one place and the profile follows it.
The document holds no address, username or password. iOS asks for those
at install, which means one profile serves everyone with an account and
it can be fetched by anyone: it says no more than PACC already says in
public. Identifiers are derived from the site and the payload rather than
drawn at random, because iOS replaces a profile whose ids it knows and
stacks a duplicate when they differ.

Any text a person reads may be a list, one entry per storyline, every
list the same length. A visitor is given one storyline for the whole
site and reads it on every page and in every mail about their case.
Records and events carry the storyline; GET /report gives counts per
bucket, storyline and state, and nothing else.

A membership is a case in the built-in portal_memberships bucket:
invited by a desk, a grants, the seed or the responsible pass; active
from the person's first sign-in, when the provider's subject, phone
number or address matches the record; removed by a desk, and invited
again after that. One record per group and person however it was
keyed, and at sign-in every record that matched learns what the
provider verified. The active memberships join the groups claim, so
Cedar sees the same parents as before.
PEOPLE_BACKEND picks Kanidm or memberships; unset, a KANIDM_API_TOKEN
means Kanidm. The NATS access service looks a person's groups up when
a question names them by sub, phone or email and lists none. The
sign-in asks for the phoneNumber scope and reads it from userinfo.

A MemoryStore meant every restart signed out every desk on the site
being deployed. Bearable while a desk is three people, and not the
kind of thing that gets better on its own.
They live in NATS KV now: the JetStream already under the events, the
projections, the content reload and the access questions. No new
service, no new store, and the same bucket a second instance of a site
would read if there ever is one. `create` draws a fresh id rather than
writing over a session already at that key, the bucket's `max_age`
collects what nobody comes back for, and a record's own expiry is what
answers a load, whatever the bucket still holds.
Proved the only way it can be: a store opened twice against one
JetStream, which is what two runs of the binary are.
Also fixed, while there: the integration test asserted a record's
projected state was one that `aggregates::transition` never writes -
it appends events, the desk handler updates the projection - so it
failed whenever it was actually run. It now asserts what it says it
does, that a mailed reply leaves the state alone. test.yml has been
red since 0.3.47 while publish.yml stayed green, which is how v0.4.0
went out over it.

Whatever reads the mailbox publishes on portal.mail.received; portal
appends the note after checking the record exists in a bucket this
site has and the sender is the address the record itself holds. A
note never moves a case: a mailbox is the one door anyone may knock
on, so it cannot drive a state machine even if someone forges their
way past the checks. The desks show the conversation beside the case.
Tested: the address parser, every refusal (a stranger, no address to
compare, an empty reply, the same reply twice, an unknown contract),
and the whole path through a real JetStream - the note lands, the
state does not move, and no event is written.

Until now nothing outside a live site exercised the NATS side: the
aggregate engine was tested by in-memory replay only. This test
submits an answer, moves it from a desk through the engine, checks
that an undeclared move and an unknown record are refused, and reads
the record back from its own event log. It runs when
PORTAL_TEST_NATS_URL is set; CI starts a throwaway nats:2.14.6-alpine
with JetStream for it and tears it down. Without the variable the
test passes as skipped, so `cargo test` stays green offline.
