[evolution-patches] Redesign of To, Cc and Bcc fields of Composer (THIS TIME WITH SOME SNAPSHOTS)



Hi,

This patch proposes some UI changes to the Composer fields to make them
more flexible and easy to use.
Earlier there was no mechanism to verify or check the email addresses u
have entered except for horizontal scrolling.
Now the entered email addresses can be easily verified by pressing the
button at the end of To, Cc, Bcc fields or by pressing (Ctrl ->), this
pops down a list which shows all the email addresses entered in the
particular field. This list is easily scrollable and supports delete
operation also.
Also included in this patch is srinis patch which allows u to remove
names from contact list for a single mail.

By joining these two patches almost all the enhancement requests and
bugs related to composer fields are solved.

Snapshot 4 shows mailing list with some addresses left out , so some
names can be removed from a mailing list for a particular email.

Snapshot 5 shows a name with multiple email addressed associated with it
and user can select to which email address he wants to send the mail.

Please give a try to this and give your feedback regarding any bugs or
usability issues.
Also as of now we have used a stock icon for the button but we are
looking for some better ones and hope somebody will suggest a really
neat and fitting icon for this.


Thanks
