2004-01-21 Builds Now Available (Win32, OSX)
** 1/21 builds are a respin of the 1/20 builds with two fixes I said were fixed but were not picked up in the 1/20 build**
http://ftp.mozilla.org/pub/mozilla.org/ ... -21-trunk/
Some of the new changes include:
1) Saving imap attachments sometimes causes us to re-download the attachment
2) Fix for last week's regression with the priority getting set to Highest instead of Normal for outgoing messages.
3) The addressing bug where you drag an address that has a comma in the name like:
"Smith, John" <jsmith@foo.com> and we incorrectly split that address into two parts. *Fixed in 1/21 Respin*
4) Dragging an address from the contacts sidebar to the addressing envelope no longer causes the attachment bucket to snap open. *Fixed in 1/21 Respin*
5) IMAP improvements to fix issues with inaccurate unread message counts
Known Issues
1) Regression in dragging attachments from the mail window to the desktop. We always drop the last attachment and not necessarily the attachment you selected if the message has multiple attachments.
2) Reports that last week's new feature: dragging attachments to the desktop is not working on OSX.

Flame-proof Troosers
*pulls on flame-proof troosers*
Possibly the only person who wants to hear this is mscott but I never encounter the regressions on these forums and just use TB for reading IMAP and POP mail with no problems (win2k, variety of machines). Admittedly I can't be bothered with extensions but for me TB just rocks and gets better each iteration. Kudos to mscott and his team for a fantastic bit of software

To Make Thunderbird Perfect
I block the loading of remote images to prevent spammers from tracking my every move. However there are many legitimate emails where I would like the images be shown. My current mail client is the web based SquirrelMail, and it has two features I would love to see in Thunderbird. The first one is the ability to view unsafe/remote images at the click of a button. The other is the ability of the mail client to "learn" which emails to always show images for without having to click a button. Just implementing one of those options would make me a full time Thunderbird user. The rest of the features just plain rock.

SMTP server selection per account?
Where did the 'Advanced' button go in the Server Settings item on the Account Settings dialog box? Has it moved somewhere else? I cannot resize the dialog box; perhaps it is just outside the window? I haven't really used it for a while, so I don't know when, exactly, it went missing; but I don't see it there now. Am I just unaware of an old UI change? How am I to select which SMTP servers I want to use for each of my accounts without maybe manually editting prefs.js?

hmm...it's in the same place it has always been. Does it look like your dialog is clipping it off? It is just to the right of Clean up and the Empty Trash check boxes.fishbert wrote:Where did the 'Advanced' button go in the Server Settings item on the Account Settings dialog box?

yeah, the dialog is clipped in Server Settings, Security, and the parent blah@blahblah.org panes for each account I have set up, as well as the Local Folders pane. The 'Options' dialog box also is clipped in the General and Display panes, but I can resize that dialog, so it's not that big of an issue. As sort of an aside; being able to resize the 'Account Settings' dialog box would be nice on its own merit anyway (if it's not too difficult a thing to implement).
