!!!! Create a road map and overview on wanted features ... !!!
5
* Autoloading should be optimized, currently we load almost all ;-/
6
* Marking + Delete is dead slow on folders with many (>2000) messages
8
* enable sane extensions by default
9
* Cleanup and reorganize
10
* Fix bugs when marking threads by "M T". Sometimes it misses some messages,
11
IMHO ones of broken MUAs, but hey we cannot fix them so let's work around

4
There are some things which probably will never be fixed ...
6
* Update the info file. News should also be there not in the NEWS file?
8
* Cleanup and reorganize the code.
10
* Better doc strings: VM has nearly none in the core, just my own extensions
11
have been documented properly using "M-x checkdoc RET".
13
* Enable sane extensions and configurations: The default should satisfy most
14
people, but still allow one to disable what they dislike.
16

The features planed for one of the next releases
21
* GNU Emacs: does not highlight attachment buttons in compositions
23
* Merge changes from the Debian package.
25
* Some of the user defined summary specifiers should become internal ones.
27
* Better HTML support for both displaying and replying, but probably not for
28
composition as there is no urge to surrender here!
30
* Virtual selectors matching on specific mime parts, e.g.
31
(vm-vs-text regexp): matching only text parts and those which can be
33
(vm-vs-attachment regexp): matching the disposition of parts
35
* Improved (i)search support: Only text parts and certain headers should be
36
searched and it should also work for virtual folders. We might utilize
37
virtual folder selectors here.
13
39
* Better IMAP support, i.e. just fetch headers, sync, offline, search. It is
14
40
really bad now and thus I do use Thunderbird at work!
42
* Maildir support: It is a nice format and possibly can fix the problem of
43
huge mail folders, as VM must not read the whole buffer into memory, just
44
the index. Also it would allow for using external indexing tools like
45
http://www.rpcurnow.force9.co.uk/mairix/ and make folders really virtual.
15
47
* Virtual folders everywhere, i.e. only one physical folder. VM should
16
48
not read the folder into a buffer, but only query relevant messages from
18
* GNU Emacs: highlight attachment buttons

The unsorted and remaining ones.

* Marking + Delete is dead slow on folders with many (>2000) messages
60
* Fix bugs when marking threads by "M T". Sometimes it misses some messages,
61
IMHO ones of broken MUAs not setting the References: header, but hey we

cannot fix them so let's work around them.
