5 Wishes for Mail.app
January 21st, 2007
The following is a list of features I hope are in the next version of Mail.app in Leopard.
Mail is a great app. It really is. It just could use a few improvements to make it even more usable.
- The ability to make bullet lists rather than creating them in TextEdit and copying them over.
- Much better Junk Mail filter.
- In Rich Text emails, automatically hyperlink URLs and email addresses as I type them instead of insisting that I go to Edit > Add Hyperlink.
- “Send To Same” - in Sent items, in addition to forward, forward to all, etc., an option to Send to the original recipients
- Support for sharing and syncing all your accounts, including POP, across multiple desktops and computers. I frequently want to check my mail from either my desktop or my laptop, and I imagine I’m not the only person in this situation.
