[Alpine-info] top feature requests

[Daniel Fetchinson]

Hi folks,

(Al)pine is really a great tool, I've been using it happily for about
17 years. It makes reading/writing email simple, fast and efficient.
But there are a couple of quirks that come up from time to time and
are somewhat annoying but by far not on the level that would make me
with up (al)pine completely. Consider these as mild annoyances.
Nevertheless I thought I would share my top list of feature requests
which would make (al)pine even better in my opinion.

1. Tab completion of email addresses using the address book while
typing To: or Cc: field.

2. Ability to delete attachments from a saved email (while keeping the
email text body).

3. Ability to define default path to save attachments to. Currently it
is the directory where (al)pine was launched.

4. Ability to save all attachments with a single action, whenever possible.

I'd say the fact that only 4 mild annoyances came up in 17 years is a
pretty good testament to the over all design quality and
implementation of (al)pine.

Are there others who also stumbled upon these 4 issues?

Cheers,
Daniel
