OK, sorry about this, but I just received word that the whole multiple fields (to be the basis for 3.0) thing is going to be off for the time being, as my client has pulled away from the project. I wouldn't have announced it without thinking it was going to happen, since I got the green light in so many ways - including payment-wise, and now it's not happening. Sorry for the confusion, Justin Simoni ...Continue Reading

Hey everyone, this is the draft of the roadmap for Dada Mail, let me know what your thoughts are on it, Cheers, Justin Road Map For Dada Mail Very Near Future, Goals: [*]Release 2.10 [*]Normalize the release process At the moment, Dada Mail's release cycles have been tied to the linear fashion that it has been developed: ----> 2.8.12 ----> 2.8.13 ----> 2.8.14 ----> 2.8.15 ----> 2.9----> 2.9.1 ----> 2.9.2 This causes major problems: for example: any bug fixes in 2.8.15 couldn't be rel ...Continue Reading

Maybe I'm misunderstanding your request for feedback in *this* message, but offering shot-in-the-dark suggestions /before/ we see a roadmap seems to hold a large potential for duplicated/wasted effort. Please send us a draft version of your roadmap *first*, so we can see if our ideas have already been thought of and scheduled by you or, for that matter, thought of and rejected. (Giving us this starting point will also provide us a better idea of the breadth and depth of the areas you're asking us to consider/add to/r ...Continue Reading

OK, I've been promising at least Shane an alpha version for all of us to work with (and be on the same page) for quite a while, and I may in fact be able to go to something like that tonight. Every summer I seem to want to hold hands with pretty girls and walk mindlessly in parks more than I want to stare at my Powerbook all day... Regardless :), I wanted to give people some fair warning before I bundle basically what's in CVS now + a few tweaks and produce a working alpha which will be very much incomple ...Continue Reading

Hmm, I think I wasn't too clear on what I liked about iFrames: That you can should pretty much exactly how the message is formatted. What I don't like about iFrames is that it's stuck in, well, an iFrame - I don't want double scroll bars, or a box the message is trapped inside of. This solution would give me what I hate about iFrames coupled with the shortcomings of putting the content inline. :) I like the width can automatically change, but so can text outside of the faked iFrame. I guess what I'd love ...Continue Reading

Thanks for the testing, Bruce! I've updated the page accordingly. And while I haven't seen any stats lately (NN7, anyone?), I think that takes care of the majors. So notwithstanding the fringe browsers, here are your frame-like archived-message options (when the time comes), Justin: - an iFrame, set at a fixed width; - or a variable-width "fakeFrame"...that won't let Mac users fondle their new Mighty Mice as much as they want to. ...Continue Reading

Brilliant! Good work! Firefox/Mac -- width & overall function good, but no keyboard scrolling or scrollwheel scrolling. Safari/Mac -- ditto IE 5.2.3/Mac -- ditto. When the page is first loaded, the fake iframe has a horizontal scrollbar which disappears when the window is resized. -- curmudgeon ...Continue Reading

> If the iFrame automatically  > adjusted itself to the width of the page/div it's in...   Well, percentage widths *are* part of its spec! ...but having now done some browser testing on my own, I'm choking on my choice of the word "elegant." Yuck!   So I've thrown together a CSS-based replacement for your/our consideration. It's certainly cleaner and more consistent with Dada Mail's style, ...and if it works well enough cross-browser, switching from "inline/framed" to &qu ...Continue Reading

Good question - probably PDA's and the ilk? I personally don't like the iFrame idea. If the iFrame automatically adjusted itself to the width of the page/div ...Continue Reading
