Summary: Before this patch, the IdentityStore would initialize in our empty hot window. However, hot windows don't receive any `action-bridge-message`s, which include DB updates. Since the hot window loads first, it was with a stale verison of the Identity. The main window fetches a fresh identity, but that fresh update failed to get to new composers because the hot window wasn't listening to changes to the DB. This makes it such that the IdentityStore properly boots up when the window props change.

Building the docs
Plugin SDK docs are available at https://nylas.github.io/nylas-mail/. Here's how you build them:
Until my patch gets merged, docs need to be built manually using mg's fork.
git clone git@github.com:grinich/gitbook.git
cd nylas-mail
./node_modules/.bin/gitbook alias ../gitbook latest
Then to actually build the docs:
script/grunt docs
./node_modules/.bin/gitbook --gitbook=latest build . ./_docs_output --log=debug --debug
rm -r docs_src/classes
If you want to preview the docs:
pushd ./_docs_output; python -m SimpleHTTPServer; popd
Just want to publish everything? There's a helper script that does it for you:
script/publish-docs
Configuration
You can configure Nylas Mail in a few ways—for instance, pointing it to your self-hosted instance of the sync engine or changing the interface zoom level. Learn more about how.
