Well, we were just discussing this issue a few messages ago: Adding
recipients through browsing the addressbook upon composing a message. This
is the only function I'm currently aware of that Larry does provide as a
core function, but Classic does not. There may be more, I don't know.

We have been coming from Squirrel, and were really surprised that Roundcube
doesn't offer that kind of function, which had been available in Squirrel
for ages already. So I was glad that the plugin compose_addressbook from Cor
Bosman was available. Which is not needed with Larry anymore, as I learned
two days ago, as it is now a (but just Larry) core function.

While writing this, I'm just asking myself how Roundcube does handle this:
As we can't know which skin our users will be using, we need to activate
compose_addressbook in the config for the Classic users. Can't this create a
conflict with the Larry users, as they would now have a core function AND a
plugin with pretty much the same functionality...?

I'm not using a desktop client at all anymore (and I don't want to).
Roundcube is (for me) already pretty full-featured, it just needs to be "a
little bit" improved here and there.

Furthermore, any message from [email protected] has the following
signature:

----------------------------------------------------------------------------

That's what it wants to provide, "full functionality", and I second that...

But again: As you, I do prefer the Classic skin. For reasons I already
mentioned.
