I don't understand. It is a standard practice to put "-- \n" and then
start the signature - in fact many mail clients EXPECT this to be the
delimeter or they will not "work" properly. So no, this will not change.

You already can. There's no separate port GtkEntry because you are able
to type it in with the hostname, just like you would in a browser.

mail.myhost.com:995

exim/postfix/etc all have sendmail-like arguments so all you have to do
is make a symlink called sendmail and have it point to your
postfix/exim/qmail/whatever program.

if this is not what you mean, then you can always write your own
provider because if it isn't a sendmail clone, then we don't want to
waste our time.

no, and in fact this has been removed in the development branch, there
are no longer any single-key accelerators because of the new feature in
the message-list that uses them.

this is already fixed in the development versions by telling you which
"store" the folder is on. It's a lot more clear than it was in 1.0.x

sure, I guess. might be nice if someone could send me a patch to do this
;-)
