Hi,


Some time ago there was a nice thread here collecting the requests of
MD-users for future revisions of this great piece of software: maybe
not much of those were implemented, but I think some nice ideas came
right from there.
Now, since I've installed 1.4.4(nc) and I'm very happy with it, I'd
like to start the suggestion-thread again, but I'd like to avoid to
repeat forever Olli's 'to do list': we all know what 'works' in MD and
what is not (well, almost ;) so here's mine:

*Message reader window:* Can the Subject be printed in more than one
row (two, perhaps)? I know the subject must be kept concise, but on
usenet too many messages have a looonger subject than what's visible,
the relevant part being usually the end :(
I know I can 'show significant headers - subject' but I think this
shouldn't be done since the subject itself is shown anyway in the
upper part of the window;

*Group Manager:* Is it possible to delete not-received-news _only_,
after the given amount of time? If You do not collect news every day
(and I think this happens to many ppl out there), after a while You'd
find a huge quantity of messages reporting 'not such an article' - and
You know that - but You cannot select them by date and You cannot
delete them automatically after xx days because into the same group
You have older (got&read) messages mixed with got&unread and new ones
:( Maybe a checkmark on GroupManager can do that the easy way;

*Group Manager 2:* After having fetched the titles of news and having
deleted what I don't want to receive, it's possible to have a 'dload
full articles' button so I don't have to open them one by one? And,
after that, it's possible to state a 'global' dir for saving _al_l
attachments of a selected group of articles without having to
open&click every one by hand?

*Account overview:* Why not a simple led onto the main window
signalling when Genesis (or any other stack) is online/offline? That'd
be a nice addition to Voyager (not installed V3 yet so don't know if
that's implemented) too, since there's no way of knowing for sure if
You're still online or not.


I hope Olli or someone else on this list will not be disturbed by
this long mail and perhaps will find something good in it.
Waiting for feedback (and flames ;)

Roberto.
