Well, I've just put 2 Evo shells side by side on my laptop 1024x768 screen
(where I *have* to make good use of it), one with only the shortcuts and
the list, and one with the view, and that's exactely how I'd like it.
Plenty of mails to look for in threads, and no need to scroll for many
short mails. Basically scrolling sucks when you use a laptop, and I have a
768 pixels tall screen, I hate being restricted to 300 pixels to read my
messages or select my mails.
I attached a screenshot. Don't believe it's a stupid idea.
