Subject: Any "Rmail" specialists out there?
Date: Sun, 26 May 2024 17:39:14 +0200 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <665357a4.050a0220.1d562e.32fb@mx.google.com> (raw)
Greetings,
long long ago I already used "Rmail" for quite some time, but also long
long ago I've switched to "View Mail" ("vm"), because it (then) offered
more features and had a user interface requiring less keystrokes.
Meanwhile however, "vm" is dead, its last published version 8.2.0b dat-
ing back to 2011-12-27 and meanwhile fails to correctly display certain
Mime mails. So I'm back to using "Rmail". My questions:
* Is there a way to modify the format used to display the lines in the
"Summary" buffer (apart from suppressing the mail length column)?
- Less blanks between columns.
- Date format "YYYY-MM-DD" (or at least "MM-DD").
- Because I have set "rmail-delete-after-output" to non-nil, and be-
cause a saved mail is very different from a deleted mail, I would
prefer an "S" marker for saved mails over just "D".
* Is there a way to specify the order in which not suppressed header
lines are displayed?
- Aparently "Rmail" displays headers in the same order as found in
the original mail, and whenever I want to inspect some particular
header, I have to explicitly search for it, because the header or-
der changes from mail to mail.
Any pointers welcome :-)
Sincerely,
Rainer
