Details

It would be great to move through the inbox and assign new mail to different folders without having to leave the keyboard and without having to navigate a lot of menus. For example, I'm thinking that "Alt-1-3" (keypad nums?) could move the selected email to the third folder in the first account, and that "Shift-Alt-L-4" could copy the selected email to the fourth local folder. Of course this is just an example, but it illustrates my request. If some default shortcut scheme is used like I mention above, then it might be nice to show the shortcuts in the folder list. Otherwise there might be some way to assign user defined shortcuts to filter actions. I'm thinking, for example, that users might configure some shortcut to apply a specific filter to the selected mail whether or not the item matches the filter criteria. This would be another way of quickly filing mail, but would not reach all the folders as easily as the scheme I mention above. Thanks, Todd
