Is there an easy way to change the layout of the imp main screen? I'm talking about the From, Subject, Date, and size layout. Often times, from my experience, and feedback to me, the from field isn't long enough to display who the mail was sent from. You see the partial from info, then the ... appended to the end? I hate to ask, but is it possible to implement some sort of dynamic column adjustment? Yeah, that question doesn't make sense. What I'm trying to ask is for the ability to have a sliding column adjustment that one could use to lengthen or shorten the column fields to their liking? This is what can be done on most client email apps, and not sure it's doable with the web-based email app.
This should be technologically possible from what I've seen. I'm not a horde developer though. From experience if it's important to you you might need to sponsor it. > 2. The select all checkbox now seems to me to be an unusable feature/function. If I choose select all, I only want to delete all the messages on that page, not every single message in the mailbox. This has been an issue with others that I've had using imp. I tell them to not use this unless they have initiated a search of their mailbox in which they know they want to delete all messages returned in the search. I'm I off base here, and if so, please let me know how I should convey the usage of this. But this behaviour mimics CTRL-A in Outlook.. i.e.if you select all and delete, it deletes all messages selected, not just the visible ones. Personally I'd be upset if this behaviour changed. It was the best thing about moving to the dynamic interface from horde 3 to horde 4!
