The mailbox read as empty after the migration — "No emails synced yet", and Sync Now
reporting no new mail against 18,430 messages that were sitting on disk untouched.
The store is keyed by the owner's email: DATA_PATH/<owner>/email_accounts/<account>/emails.db.
The platform's userMiddleware put the entire user row on the context, so `user.email`
resolved. The proxy injects only an id, and the middleware I wrote to replace it set
`{ id }` and nothing else — so `user.email` was undefined, the path never resolved to the
real mailbox, reads found nothing, and the sync compared against an empty set and concluded
there was nothing new. Nothing was written to the wrong place and no data was touched.
The sidecar loads the full row via getUserById now, matching what the middleware provided.
Cached: it runs on every request and single-user is a hard invariant.
Worth keeping in mind for the sidecars still to be extracted — moving routes across a
process boundary silently changes what is on the context, and it type-checks either way.
