On firefox/win32, the "box list" and "message lists" aren't
vertically aligned correctly (at least for me.) Other than that, it's
quite pretty. You could reduce the whitespace margins considerably,
maybe even lose the box around the year/month listings on the side.
From a usability perspective, I like 'three-pane' sorts of
interfaces, but I'm often infuriated by things that waste a lot of
space so I can't read the actual message. The huge space allocated to
the logo at the top could be reduced (that will probably be easy to
template away, but if you set a bad example for people, they'll follow
it -- also I get the feeling that the message list takes up space that I
could use to read the message...
