I know its late in the day for feature suggestions. with Mozilla 1.0 just around the corner. but the following are based on my experiences.
Here are 3 possible suggestions for 'killer features' that could differentiate Mozilla from the opposition (all email related). 1. Spam avoidance. A tactic often used by spammers is to send HTML emails that include 'web-bugs' - images that are dynamically created and unique to the email. This allows recipient mail address validation and, more importantly, that the email was 'read'. Why not differentiate between controlling image downloads in webpages and in emails, via the privacy & security preferences? A more advanced implementation would be possible with a toggle images button next to each viewed message and an rdf based list of 'senders' whose images are trusted. 2. Delete without viewing. I like to keep my inbox 'clean' but I have not found a way of deleting a single message without clicking on it and in doing so viewing it in the preview pane. This previewing then means that the sender of *'see me doing XXXX'* knows that my email address is valid and that I read my messages :-( [see suggestion 1 above]. How about changing the right click on a message so that you get the context menu, allowing you to delete the message, without 'reading' the message? 3. Printing scaled images Many people, when they receive an image by email from the owner of a digital camera or find a nice photo on a web page, find that they have no way of printing the image so that it is of a suitable size on the printed page. This would be a nice to have feature that could be very attractive to less technical users who do not have access to graphics packages. Any reactions? Geraint -- Vizimarks - the Internet Scrapbook!
