Greetings,
The help text that is part of Balsa 2.3.10 mentions that...
"Also, some address books are expensive to lookup. You will need then to press
Ctrl-R to explicitly expand the alias."
That doesn't appear to be the case, both in that there isn't any way to tag an
address book as being expensive and that Ctrl-R doesn't do anything that I
could tell.
Searching my company's LDAP database for addresses is expensive; when balsa
decides to try is also uncontrollable. It is especially infuriating when I am
in the middle of typing the name and Balsa attempts to perform the lookup. It
would be nice if we could configure a delay in keyboard input prior to
trotting off to perform the search. It would also be nice to have a key
binding that would trigger the lookup when the auto-expand is set to false.
I'd be happy with just the latter.
It would also be exceedingly nice to have a widget that allowed you to
efficiently edit the various address lists in a reply. I'm not certain what
the interaction is, but attempting to highlight subsets of the address list in
order to delete appears to trigger the LDAP lookup.
