Well, for one, most of them are simply extensions to exisiting
settings. But it would require the settings UI to be reworked, which
would be a good thing anyway. The only settings page I've ever seen
worse than Eudora's is Mulberry's for sheer intimidation value.
Alas, too many years of familiarity have blinded me to the
intimidation factor in Eudora's settings. Looks like an old
comfortable shoe now.
But then, a LOT of Eudora needs to be revamped.
There's no doubt that the filters could be beefed up to great
advantage. Two conditions aren't enough. The "redirect" action is
broken (or was as of a few months ago), and there needs to be an
AppleScript trigger.
I'd also like to see the dictionary get some real work too.
I wouldn't object to that, though in the hierarchy of battles to
fight on behalf of AppleScript, it's way down on my list. There are
so many new things to swear at.
if I had a life, it would involve palm trees and beach sand, not computers.
... don't forget the margaritas and the lasses.
