This PR implements micro-optimizations in the email list retrieval path.

Changes:

  1. Repository Layer (backend/infrastructure/db/repositories.py):

    • Refactored get_previews_by_folder to use a list comprehension for creating Email entities. This is generally faster and more pythonic than initializing an empty list and calling .append() in a loop.
  2. API Layer (backend/api/mail.py):

    • Removed the redundant preview_body = full_body[:100] slicing operation in EmailListResponse.from_entity. The EmailRepository already uses func.substr(..., 1, 100) in the SQL query, so the entity.body is already truncated.
    • Replaced getattr(entity, 'field', None) with direct attribute access entity.field for sender_display_name and sender_email. Since Email is a strictly defined Dataclass (verified in backend/core/entities/email.py), these fields are guaranteed to exist, making getattr overhead unnecessary.

Verification:

  • Confirmed backend/infrastructure/db/repositories.py contains func.substr(EmailModel.body, 1, 100).
  • Confirmed backend/core/entities/email.py defines sender_display_name and sender_email as fields in the Email dataclass.
  • Ran backend import tests to ensure no syntax errors.

💡 What:
- Optimized `EmailRepository.get_previews_by_folder` to use list comprehension instead of `for` loop with `append`.
- Optimized `EmailListResponse.from_entity` in `api/mail.py` to remove redundant body slicing (DB already handles it) and use direct attribute access instead of `getattr` for Entity fields.

🎯 Why:
- The previous implementation used a slower loop structure for converting DB rows to Entities.
- The API layer was redundantly truncating the email body (slicing) even though the Repository already utilized `func.substr` for SQL-level truncation.
- `getattr` calls introduced unnecessary overhead for fields guaranteed by the `Email` dataclass.

📊 Impact:
- Reduces CPU cycles for list processing.
- Simplifies API logic.

🔬 Measurement:
- Verify that `EmailRepository` explicitly uses `func.substr` (confirmed).
- Verify that `Email` is a dataclass with guaranteed fields (confirmed).
