Dear Pétur

I'm not a Geary developer, just a user with no coding skills.

If you think it's an easy task, do it yourself or ask some friend who 
can code to do it. I have a feeling that it might not be as trivial as 
you think.. but again, I'm not a coder.

Geary developers, well at least Yorba developers, don't collect 
bounties. Bounties are meant to attract new developers IIUC. Read here:
