190989 - Email alerts for labels

Status: RESOLVED EXPIRED

(SeaMonkey :: MailNews: Message Display, enhancement)

Description

[blockcipher]

This is just an idea I came up with.  Could we have a similar feature to what
bookmarks have.  With the bookmarks, you can have them check a site on a
periodic basis and display an alert when the site has changed.  What if we had
something similar where say, if you label an email as "to do", you can set an
alert that after a certain number of days, you're reminded of the email.  I see
two ways of doing this off the top of my head.

1. We add something to the mail/news component to do this
2. We leverage the calender's task features.  Since I haven't used the calender
too much, I don't know how feasible this is.

I'm just thinking that this way if an email that you labeled is buried
somewhere, you can make sure you don't forget about it.

I believe this could be done with calendar integration.

MASS-CHANGE:
This bug report is registered in the SeaMonkey product, but has been without a comment since the inception of the SeaMonkey project. This means that it was logged against the old Mozilla suite and we cannot determine that it's still valid for the current SeaMonkey suite. Because of this, we are setting it to an UNCONFIRMED state.

If you can confirm that this report still applies to current SeaMonkey 2.x nightly builds, please set it back to the NEW state along with a comment on how you reproduced it on what Build ID, or if it's an enhancement request, why it's still worth implementing and in what way.
If you can confirm that the report doesn't apply to current SeaMonkey 2.x nightly builds, please set it to the appropriate RESOLVED state (WORKSFORME, INVALID, WONTFIX, or similar).
If no action happens within the next few months, we move this bug report to an EXPIRED state.

MASS-CHANGE:
This bug report is registered in the SeaMonkey product, but still has no comment since the inception of the SeaMonkey project 5 years ago.

Because of this, we're resolving the bug as EXPIRED.

If you still can reproduce the bug on SeaMonkey 2 or otherwise think it's still valid, please REOPEN it and if it is a platform or toolkit issue, move it to the according component.
