Re: [Evolution] A Feature request survey/questionnaire?

[Misty Linville <misty cybersource com>]

Feature Name: plain-text headers
Feature Description: Put the header as TEXT at the top of the message
instead of
that box that makes the header impossible to paste.

Feature Name: Keep text from disappearing if you keep typing past the
normal margin of a message....
Feature Description: Right now if you type a longer line than the window
of a 
composition without putting in a carriage return yourself, the text
suddenly
becomes invisible (it did it in my "Feature Name" line

Feature Name: Expunge-All
Feature Description: Let me expunge all messages I've deleted, in ALL
folders,
in one swell foop

Feature Name: Delete sends to trash
Feature Description: Deleting a message sends it to the trash instead of
just
putting a line through it

I will keep posting them as I think of them. :)
