Re: [CronosII-users] A bug?

[Pablo N. <cro...@us...>]

Well, this seems to be a bug, but anyway, c2 is being rewritten, so it wi=
ll get fixed (hopelly).

All other things you want are probably going to be supported:
o IMAP,
o switches (--compose)
o Changes in the layout (actually, you will be able to redesign the whole=
 c2 through glade).
o Message rules (it's already done as a plugin, check the c2 website).

For example "cronos --compose so...@ma..." could launch only a composer=

I can't understand what's wrong with this, I use that option A LOT...
Maybe for the next version...

Well, thanks for having that concept of Cronos II, we work really hard to=
 get where we are now,
and we are working harder to move on...

Best Regards and thanks for the kind words, Pablo.
