Hmm - they're the easy examples :) Take, for instance, Reply to All.
If you're reading through hundreds of messages and need that function
on each reply you do, then it's difficult to remember and use
CTRL, SHIFT and F5 to keep replying.
It would be far easier if you simply pressed A or C or just a single
keystroke and up came the reply to all message editor.
I use to use a program called Ameol 2, which had this feature. Also,
you could press enter and it would mark the current message as read
and then move to the next unread message... It tends to be a bit more
difficult with The Bat.

Version 2? How long for that ? :))
