I'd try a solution valid for most of the message types: the sender before the subject is very important to single conversations and it isn't so bad for threads. On the other way around I think it's quite bad to have the sender after the subject for single mail messages, that are the most important ones for the normal usage of a mail client. However I agree that after a few responses the creator isn't so relevant. I think we should probably go with a Google-mail like solution also for multiline... > I do like the idea of a fav mark, and the two line view of the threads. > It makes me wonder how useful that is for high traffic threads though. I think that the fav mark is very important with threading in order to "save" single messages within. ;) Notice that it works *great* if you have the OSX preference "jump to the spot" enabled for scrollbars. Probably the fav mark should be propagated at list level, but maybe making an ad-hoc smart folder is enough. |D _______________________________________________ [email protected] mailing list List help: http://lists.ranchero.com/listinfo.cgi/email-init-ranchero.com
