I like. Definitely concur with the drafts/queued messages all in the Outbox, and a filter bar to choose to only view certain states. I'm really often in a place where I can't send email: our campus wifi allows IMAP but blocks all SMTP. I can VPN into a computer where I can send email from, but that takes effort. Having a queue that is easily viewable, and will auto-send when it can, would be great. Badge the outbox with number of queued messages? (I'd say ignore drafts in the badge number.) Regarding drafts, should they auto save or not? In Mail, they do, but sometimes it forgets to delete the draft once I either send the mail or decide not to send it. I tend to ignore the Drafts folder because it's full of old crap. I'd rather Letters doesn't auto-save, but asks you when you close the message window (Discard or Save As Draft). At least, if a message is saved as a draft, it should be deletable from the message composer, without having to go and find it in the Drafts folder. _______________________________________________ [email protected] mailing list List help: http://lists.ranchero.com/listinfo.cgi/email-init-ranchero.com
