+1 from me too. Applications like e-mail clients should remain highly 
configurable. These are applications for daily use and every user has a 
different work flow and should be allowed to adapt the application to HIS work 
flow instead of having to adapt his work flow to the application (or rather to 
work flow of us, developers).
