1. Auto-wrapping whilst reading text in window (note: not whilst
editing a message, but whilst reading a message). I'll be darned if I
can find any switch within The Bat 1.3x that can do this. My
auto-wrap switch in Options -> Editor Preferences is definately
enabled.
2. Attachment icons at the bottom of the message window rather than at
the left hand side, or alternatively a configuration option to have
the attachment icons at either the left hand side, the right hand
side, or at the bottom of the message. Saves having to resize the
side to fit any text that comes with the message (partly due to the
non-wrapping of text in the message window).
3. Global templates for defining the basic template when adding new
accounts. I have about five or six POP3/IMAP accounts and found it a
pain having to re-configure each and every template when setting up
the accounts.
4. Saving window positions, ALL account information and editor
preferences in a file rather than the registry. When restoring The
Bat! from backup, it's a PIA having to go to Accounts -> New, and then
set-up the acccounts again. The files and data are already there - it
should just be the case of restoring from the backup and having
everything ready to go.
I thinks that's about it! :) If any of the above gets incorporated
into a 1.x or 2.x release I will be an extremely happy man and will
purchase more licenses in bulk to friends and family so that they
don't have to suffer from the crud that is Outlook Express :)
Thanks,
Martyn
