Well, actually it turned out to be not that easy to have the layout which
I would personally like, i.e. this:
-------------------
| folder view |
-------------------
| tree | msg view |
-------------------
but allowing the one you want is indeed very simple so I just did it and
you can now have:
1. folder tree on the left or on on the right
2. folder view split vertically or horizontally
3. folder view on top/left oro n bottom/right
I don't think it's very useful however as I've tried it and on my
(1280*1024) screen it is not very usable: there is not enough space for all
folder view columns, you only see the subject basically (this is why I'd
like to have a layout with wide folder view above...).
I'd be interested to know if anybody (including you) is going to actually
use this option, if not we would probably have to remove it later because
we already have too many options to afford having the ones which nobody
uses.
