Hello Graham,

FG>   a) Tying dynamic lookup of addresses when creating them to an LDAP
FG>   server rather than the personal address book. This would require you
FG>   to set a "search order" for addresses. In my case it would be a
FG>   corporate directory first.

We'll keep this in mind. It's not a trivial task, actually. If you
have a fast access to the server, it's OK. But everything gets
complicated for slow access servers...

FG>   b) By tying the near useless "Address Autoview" to an LDAP server
FG>   chained to the personal address book it might actually do something
FG>   useful (for me at least). When looking at a message with a list of
FG>   recipients, then it could present a treeview, with drilldown to an
FG>   individual's details (unique to TB!)


OK, this *is* a good idea. Not sure about when it's going to be
implemented, but I like it :-)

FG>   c) Identifying a much better way to handle long lists of recipients.
FG>   The current scrolling single line is a PITA, because it displays
FG>   everything (e.g. alias & full e-mail address). Either hide some of
FG>   it to see more (aka Outlook) or find a better way of presenting it
FG>   (aka Mozilla & Outlook),

Actually, this is included in the task for making a new control for
the message header pane...

FG>   d) Management of multiple recipients - allow groups in the personal
FG>   address book to be created on the fly from the address list of a
FG>   message (rather than adding them one at a time to the address book,
FG>   and manually selecting a group you needed the foresight to prepare
FG>   ahead of time!)

Hmmm. I never needed such a task, but it sounds practical...


FG>   I belive this would be a coherent theme for a block of work in a
FG>   beta series. If its not going to be the next one Stefan - will it
FG>   ever get there?

Well, you've seen the time line for the next release. It's a pretty
short period, but we'll try our best. I don't mention bug fixing...
:-)
