No and not yet. The editor in TB employs virtual space and allows columns and indenting in a way not many others do. Some never get used to it. Those that do won't hear a word said against it :-). > 3) Can I not make "global" filtering?

By using a simple "redirect" filter and local delivery, you can have these messages dealt with by a single account. Alternatively you can use an external funnelling product like Hamster to collect your mails into a single source for TB to download them from. > 4) I also have some e-mails I want to auto-reply to, _without_ > sending them immediately, just leave them in the outbox for later > editing.

To do this you have to turn off the account's "Combined delivery" transport option and use the filter option to queue generated messages in the Outbox. > 5) I'd _really_ like a "next/previous unread message in _any_ > folder" keyboard shortcut.

The status line at the bottom of the edit window includes the account name.
