## v0.1.8
### Overview
This release focuses on making job matching and auto-approval behavior fully consistent across manual inbox actions, automatic mail imports, and the “Re-parse all” process. It also fixes a critical backend startup issue introduced in the re-parse logic.
### Key Changes
- Introduced a single, shared job-matching helper based on a full unique key:
- From address
- Backup software
- Backup type
- Job name
- Updated manual inbox approval to reuse existing jobs when the unique key matches, instead of relying on customer-only matching.
- Aligned inbox “Re-parse all” auto-approve logic with the same shared matching behavior.
- Fixed automatic mail import auto-approve so it correctly:
- Creates a JobRun
- Marks the mail as approved
- Moves the mail to history when a matching job exists
### Re-parse All Improvements
- Auto-approve is now executed during “Re-parse all”, not only on initial mail import.
- After re-parsing, all successfully parsed mails without a linked job are re-evaluated against existing jobs using the full unique key.
- When a matching active job with auto-approve enabled is found:
- The mail is automatically approved
- The mail is linked to the job
- The mail is moved to history
- A corresponding job run is created and shown in Job History
### Fixes
- Resolved an issue where “Re-parse all” previously only updated parse metadata and skipped auto-approve logic, causing historical mails not to appear in job history.
- Fixed a SyntaxError in the re-parse auto-approve logic that caused backend startup failures (Bad Gateway).
- Corrected try/except structure and indentation to ensure re-parse auto-approve runs safely per mail without breaking the overall process.
### Result
- Job matching and auto-approval behavior is now consistent across all mail processing flows.
- Historical mails are correctly linked to jobs and visible in job history.
- Backend stability during startup and re-parse operations is restored.

- Improved auto-approve behavior during **Re-parse all**, Inbox reprocessing, and Graph imports.
- Enhanced resilience against case differences, whitespace, unicode characters, and hidden formatting issues.
- Iteratively refined normalization strategy:
- Ultimately simplified matching to rely primarily on a normalized **From address**, while ensuring parser-consistent values for Backup, Type, and Job Name.
- Ensured deterministic behavior during reprocessing by preventing mutation of message data.
### Stability Fixes
- Fixed multiple crashes and approval errors caused by undefined or incorrect job name handling.
- Resolved issues with duplicate job records (including `NULL` customer IDs) that previously blocked auto-approval.
- Ensured consistent JobRun creation and mail linking during automatic imports and re-parsing.
