3. Center the message list pane on the first unread message when first visiting a folder or no message is already selected. 4. Restore the confirmation dialogue for "Empty Trash". "Expunge" has it (as an option) so why not have it for the potentially more serious operation? Used to be there but was mysteriously removed. 5. (Already mentioned several times): have Send/Receive synch with remote servers. 6. Allow selective Send/Receive on specific servers (planned I think). 7. Allow easier copying of Evo config between machines. It's all XML after all. 8. As a special case, allow some kind of Export/Import of *filters* to allow sharing them between multiple instances of Evo -- this a royal pain at the moment. 9. Allow management of remote Sieve filters (asked for by several people). 10. Configurable ordering of the folder tree pane, or at least sorting with "special" folders (Trash, Junk, Drafts, Sent) at the top. 11. Multiple alternate personalities for sending, without having to create fake accounts. 12. An option for sending without saving attachments in the Sent folder (assuming the message is not signed of course). Also deletion of attachments from received mail. 13. Make "Hide Read messages" a toggle, like "Hide Deleted messages". Or (less radical) a keyboard accelerator for hiding read messages. I use this a *lot* for some folders. and last but definitely not least: 14. A real manual. Not a tutorial. An actual user-readable reference manual that's kept in synch with Evo versions. I'm sure I can think of more, and no doubt others have their favourites too. For example all my requests are to do with mail as I never use Evo for anything else. Note that I've registered a number of these with Bugzilla going back a few years in some cases, and no dice so far. poc _______________________________________________ Evolution-list mailing list Evolution-list@gnome.org http://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/evolution-list
