Hello Steve Lamb,
On Thursday, February 10, 2000 at 08:28:19 GMT -0800 (which was
10/02/2000 23:28 GMT +0700 my Local Time) you told to the list:
>> Why we can't set priority of my own message ?
SL> You later bounce it to someone else and they get the impression that
SL> the original author placed an importance greater, or lesser, than
SL> what they actually did.
At the time the "high priority" arrive, we know the author need
attention for his/her message (that is his/her priority), but after that
it depend on us to decide the message is "high priority" to answer or
not, doesn't it ?
>> It's break the RFC rule ?
SL> The basic rule of don't munge the data.
So, as far as The Bat! notify us with "right priority", will not break
RFC rule.
>>>> I have an idea : how if we can change "priority tag" of any message
>>>> currently on folder, and make it more than 3 : lowest, low, normal,
>>>> high, highest with different color for every tag.
SL>>> I have an idea, go back to Eudora.
>> Never really use it, explain why must use Eudora why not The Bat! ?
>> What's Eudora advantage for this things.
SL> You described Eudora's priority system verbatim.
I just check Eudora Light 3.05, you right it has 5 level
and can change the tag; Netscape 4.71 5-level (can change the tag), and
Pegasus 3.12b only 2-level but have coloring and annotation (I like it).
Outlook2000 have 3, can change tag, Outlook Express 5 have 3, can't
change the tag.
Any complaint from Eudora/Netscape/Pegasus/Outlook200 about this
"feature" yet ?
How about *nix MUA, such Mutt, ELM or others ?
>> Who said it is a PIM ?
SL> "To-Do List" One of the basic components of the PIM is the to-do
SL> list.
I see, you can say as scrathpad or whatever you like :-).
But look : I send and receive FAXes using E-mail, all office report
using e-mail (we use internal mail list here), and in the near future we
will implement "workflow", so most of procedure (such purchase
requisition, absences etc) will use e-mail transport. So it worth for me
if we have coloring system in our E-mail, at least change the tagging of
priority.
>> Change the tagging flag makes The Bat bloat ?
>> Makes more than 3 level of priority makes The Bat bloat ?
SL> Why change it to 5? Why not take the Franklin approach and have 5
SL> major priorities with 10 minor priorities in each!
:-) 5 is enough for me, but if coloring and annotation like Pegasus will
appreciate.
SL> No, wait, wait, let's go for a scale based on currently know prime
SL> number! Yeah!!! Yeah!!!! That's it! 5 levels isn't enough for me,
SL> let's go for 3249827532459872345983427!!!!
SL> Do you get it yet?
Whoaho ...
