* IDEAS
|
|
|
|
Ideas for future enhancements. We collect those here so they don't clutter up
|
|
the Github issue list, i.e. without any clear plan for adding in the near
|
|
future.
|
|
|
|
** mu
|
|
|
|
- Support indexing PDF (and other) attachments. This can be done extending
|
|
process_message_part in mu-message.cc; instead of using something
|
|
PDF-specific, we could pipe a PDF through some tool to extract text; and we'd
|
|
need some way for users to specify a MIME-type => tool mapping (in Config).
|
|
https://github.com/djcb/mu/issues/2117
|
|
|
|
- Include "message summary" in message information, for display in the headers
|
|
buffer: https://github.com/djcb/mu/issues/1821 It's not so easy to get a
|
|
useful one line description... perhaps the first line after the "Dear x,"?
|
|
Moreover, this requires new functionality on the headers-view side as well.
|
|
|
|
- Try to guess the encodings; sometimes people send messages that e.g., claim
|
|
they are ISO-8859-1 but actually use windows-1252, resulting in some
|
|
characters being shown incorrectly. Perhaps best solved by GMime, but maybe mu
|
|
can do something. https://github.com/djcb/mu/issues/2700
|
|
|
|
- More sorting options: in mu4e, display the messages from old-to-new (still get
|
|
the newest though) https://github.com/djcb/mu/issues/2759. Or, from
|
|
new-to-old, reversed in thread: https://github.com/djcb/mu/issues/2807
|
|
|
|
- perhaps use =--personal-addres= instead of =--my-address= for consistency
|
|
https://github.com/djcb/mu/issues/2806
|
|
|
|
** mu4e
|
|
|
|
- Allow for *muting* messages https://github.com/djcb/mu/issues/636 Useful;
|
|
probably need to do this by *remembering* the thread-id of muted messages; and
|
|
management (unmute etc.). Perhaps at the mu side, a list of thread-id to add
|
|
to each query for what *not* to match.
|
|
|
|
- Support *creating* calendar invitations.
|
|
https://github.com/djcb/mu/issues/2308
|
|
Shouldn't be _too_ hard, for someone that uses the functionality.
|
|
|
|
- Support "aggregate actions" apply to a set of messages, e.g. apply patch-set
|
|
in a set of messages. That'll require some advanced scripting, maybe using
|
|
Guile.
|
|
https://github.com/djcb/mu/issues/301
|
|
https://github.com/djcb/mu/issues/2704
|
|
|
|
- Make sorting stable if there are multiple messages with the same date. We
|
|
_could_ do this by adding some random millisecs to each message's timestamp; _or_
|
|
complicating the search (i.e., the message hash?). Maybe leave as is?
|
|
https://github.com/djcb/mu/issues/2527
|
|
|
|
- Perhaps better support file names with commas.. perhaps temporarily add some
|
|
invisible unicode to fool crm-separator?
|
|
https://github.com/djcb/mu/issues/2768
|
|
|
|
- Org-link type for any message matching some reference See:
|
|
https://github.com/djcb/mu/issues/2787. Some first steps implemented
|
|
(searching for references).
|
|
|
|
- Reply/forward/... to multiple messages at once. This is sometimes useful, and
|
|
Gnus supports it. Does not seem trivial to re-use the Gnus code... (see
|
|
~gnus-summary-work-articles~ etc.).
|
|
https://github.com/djcb/mu/issues/2799
|
|
|
|
- Add some way to add a quick bookmark for (e.g.) the current thread
|
|
https://github.com/djcb/mu/issues/2804
|
|
|
|
- Support running mu4e over tramp
|
|
https://github.com/djcb/mu/issues/2815
|
|
Seems this is mostly possible already:
|
|
1. set mu4e-mu-binary to a shell script that sshes into the mail machine
|
|
2. added a custom file-name-handler-alist handler that implements file
|
|
operations for my mail directory by proxying to tramp
|
|
But perhaps can be documented.
|
|
|
|
- Allow for watching notifications externally, perhaps using alert.el
|
|
https://github.com/djcb/mu/issues/2825
|
|
|
|
* Done
|
|
|
|
- Support mu4e-mark-handle-when also for when leaving emacs
|
|
(kill-emacs-query-functions).
|
|
https://github.com/djcb/mu/issues/2649
|
|
|
|
- Support automatic handling for List-Unsubscribe headers and more in general,
|
|
handle mailing-list commands https://github.com/djcb/mu/issues/2623 and
|
|
https://github.com/djcb/mu/issues/2724 This seems useful, but probably
|
|
requires a lot of testing to get right. Can we re-use the Gnus code for this?
|
|
|
|
Yes: this is implemented now, in 1.12.9. Various Gnus' mailing list commands
|
|
are now available in the mu4e message view as well, such as
|
|
~gnus-mailing-list-subscribe~, ~gnus-mailing-list-unsubscribe~.
