When I read about Geary, I thought of writing back to you with a few
suggestions.

Note: I have been watching email clients and I have a lot of ideas to share
with you. May be some of them would resonate with you, while others may.

I also haven't tried Geary. I plan to give my inputs try Geary and then I
may give further inputs.

Today most of us receive thousands of emails and end up spending a lot of
time doing emails. Email clients can do a lot more to make it more
effective.

Current breed of email clients show you all the emails. They are not
intelligent enough to tell you which emails are important and which are not.

Email clients already have access to thousands of your email to make
intelligent decisions.

For example an email client should be able to filter email based on which
emails you frequently read and which one you reply before others.

Based on these/keywords it should be able to sort emails based on priority.
Google has priority email but I I don't find it very effective.

Also email clients should be able to auto-compose most of your replies
based on similar requests.

For example if I am posting something very similar to multiple people, the
email clients should be able to auto-compose most of the emails.

I use QuickText on Thunderbird, which does this partially, but there is
more that can be done.


*Attachments:*

Another problem with Thunderbird is that you cant save all the attachments
at one go, There should be an easy way to save multple attachments at the
same time or to just forward the attachments to someone.

*Calendar.*

In Thunderbird  calendar is an afterthought. Calendar should be integrated
right into the email client. You should be able to convert an email to
calendar and vice versa.

There should also be standard calendar templates with conference call
details which don't tend to change very often.

*Chat Integration.*

Have better integration with Chat where email client shows all
calendar/chat/email related to one person.

*Voice/Video integration.*

Similar to what google hangout does with calendar, but email client can
also effectively do.

If the email address can automatically be used for video/voice that would
be great.
