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.

  • Ability to mute message threads. This is useful but also requires quite bit of extra infra; we could add some blacklist for "muted" messages, perhaps on the 'mu server' side, but then we'd need some way to manage that (ie., unmute). https://github.com/djcb/mu/issues/636
  • Support automatic handling for List-Unsubscribe headers https://github.com/djcb/mu/issues/2623 This seems useful, but probably requires a lot of testing to get right.
  • 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.
  • Make sorting stable if there are multiple messages with the same date. We could do this by adding some random millisecs to each messasge's timestamp; or complicating the search (i.e., the message hash?). Maybe leave as is? https://github.com/djcb/mu/issues/2527
  • 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.
  • 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
  • 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

Done
