I've been waiting awhile for two things primarily from TheBat! and then
I will switch to it and buy it in a heartbeat because it seems to be by
far the best multiple account email client otherwise.
1. Account specific address books.
This seems to have been implemented recently finally. Huzzah.
2. A more 'wrap friendly' text editor.
This is the main thing. I know some people really like the way the
editor works in TheBat!, but I think a great many more find it
frustrating to deal with the lack of soft returns.
I don't want to have to use Alt-L every time I add a word to a line I
already typed, it should rewrap in real time like any normal editor.
I don't want to have to Alt-L every paragraph when I reply to a message
with its contents quoted. I know some people like to go through a
message and do that, but most of the people I talk to find it extremely
irritating, especially since the arrow keys and Alt-L are on the same
side of the keyboard and thus don't allow for easy two-handed keyboard
maneuvering.
Is there any plan afoot to implement at least an option for users to
have a 'normal' editor. TheBat! is fantastic in so many respects, but
there are a number of us who just cannot put up with this irritation in so
crucial of a feature.
As it stands now, it looks like the new Mozilla mail client will surpass
TheBat! as the best multiple account email client when it is given a
final release...at least for those of us who prefer the soft return
usage.
Of less significance would be my desire to see that Address Book button
in the Edit Mail window be moved from the right side to the left side
where it is more expedient to get to. It may not seem like much, but it
is a minor irritation to have to move the mouse all the way across the
screen to get to it when the rest of your work is really done on the
left side in starting an email. I think it would be best if you could
bring up the Address Book by clicking on the From, To, CC:, etc. buttons
themselves.
Just a suggestion.
I'll keep trying out TheBat! every so often and hope to see these
changes implemented soon.
Thanks.
