[<kp...@ma...>]

Hi,

I've just had the pleasure of downloading and installing the new 0.12.0 version (using Windows installer). After an initial testdrive, I have some comments/questions

(In the future: Should such comments go to the community forum or be posted here? Sometimes I'm a bit in doubt when to use what)

1) Windows installer:
- The selection btw. installing components for JDK 1.4 or JDK 1.3 shouldn't be relevant now, since JDK 1.3 is no longer supported
- It would be nice if the installer allowed for selection of mail location, so shortcuts would be created with the corresponding --path parameter. This would be usefull for someone like me, who doesn't use the default location.

2) Inactive menues:
- The "Manage messages remotely" menu doesn't seem to do anything. If this is true it should be either disabled or removed
- The menu File => New => Mail Window doesn't seem to do anything.... Disable or remove

3) Next/previous message in message viewer
- What's the plans for implementing and activating these (propably already discussed here before, but I can't remember)

4) Look and Feels
- Using the Windows look and feel, the icons in the four left most columns in the table viewer is not shown correctly
- Using Kunststoff look and feel, the Wizards are a bit messed up
(see attached screenshots)

I've also reported a few bugs to the bug report.

Except from the few bugs (which I'm sure we'll fix soon), I believe this is a very nice release, and a great improvement from the last stable release 0.10. Great thanks to all you developers out there :-)

Cheers,
Karl Peder
