Will it remain half-implemented, like the Unread tab which I cannot use because the message currently being read will disappear upon the next mail check? Are you going for an award for "The most half-implemented features in an email client"? The IMAP implementation, which many people say they cannot use in a professional environment, will certainly give you the major boost for that award. As for the Unread tab, I don't think that keeping the message currently being read in the preview pane active (i.e. exclude the currently open folder form a refresh) can take more than a couple of minutes. Giving the folders shown their account names (i.e. just not showing the folders that do not have unrtead messages but keeping the account tree intact so that I know which "Inbox" it is that contains the unread message) may take longer than a few minutes, but it is certainly worth investing that time in order to finish one thing - and *then* go on to the next. The way it is, the Unread tab is a nice idea, but unusable. It belongs in a beta version, not in a release version, and these little annoying shortcomings which make it unusable, should have been ironed out in the next beta. That is what beta is for: The testers test, the developers fix. Not: The testers test and comment, the developers ignore and implement something else half-way. And I see this is beta/5, so you haven't even bothered to look at the bug reports... -- Cheers, Thomas. Moderator der deutschen The Bat! Beginner Liste.
