TautWeekly for Plex v0.26.2

Released: 2026-09-09

Apply saved exclusions everywhere

This hotfix makes the saved user exclusion policy the authorization boundary
for every personalized newsletter operation. A user excluded by stable ID or
effective address can no longer be selected or used for Preview, PreviewAll,
TestEmail, TestEmail All, Manual Welcome, manual SendAll, or scheduled
delivery.

Manager removes excluded users from its operation selectors while keeping the
full roster visible in Config for policy review. The backend rechecks the exact
saved configuration revision and current sanitized discovery, and every
maintained renderer independently enforces the same rule before personalized
generation or SMTP. Direct command use therefore cannot bypass the Manager.

Checkbox changes remain edits until configuration saves successfully. Include
and save a user before selecting that identity again.

Preserve safe test isolation

An included managed user may still be used for preview or TestEmail sampling
when no production delivery address is assigned. TestEmail modes inspect an
effective address only when needed to apply a legacy ExcludedEmails rule;
all test messages continue to go solely to the configured TestEmail inbox.

The reserved Tautulli Local identity, user ID 0, remains excluded regardless
of configuration.

Validation boundary

Regression coverage exercises saved ID exclusions, native and fallback
effective-address rules, stale and refreshed Manager choices, typed API calls,
all user-scoped renderer modes, zero SMTP contact for blocked identities, and
the included address-missing sample path. The release retains the privacy,
cross-platform renderer, package, Windows installer, and multi-architecture
container gates. Live SMTP/provider acceptance remains an operator-controlled
TestEmail check.
