[horde] (no subject)

 From deep within my mailbox...

Quoting "Ivan Zilic Schmidt - Maingroup Inc." <ivan.zilic at maingroup.net>:

> Browsing the web i found http://www.inbox.lv They have a great

Seems pretty site specific - might be nice to have as examples.

This fetchmail option most likely came from Nuno Loureiro's fetchmail 
code from
2 years ago (and is located in IMP HEAD, ur.. 3.0 - man it feels good to
finally say that!)

> * Graphical quota

Already in 3.0.

> * Advertisement right in the inbox (great for free mail sites)

Implemented via midas (http://www.horde.org/midas/)?

> * As in standard IMP there is a little book near addresses when viewing a

Might be useful, but we already have blacklist/whitelist links and putting too
many icons on the address bar will clutter it unnecessarily IMHO.

This sounds kind of nifty - I wonder if mottle could be use for this sort of
feature.
