O.P. plugin suggestion
Is there a plugin which allows you to view and delete emails in a toast?

p.s there are many threads about this but i wondered if anyone could do it.

Thanks
James

As you can read in the other threads about this, it will not be made because emails can't be "viewed" in a toast, it simply wont fit...

As it has been prooven in the past, it is highly inpracticale to "delete mails in toasts"; you will NEVER know for sure what mail you delete. (even the whole topic can't be viewed in toasts, so how are you gonna know if you don't delete something important?)

A "you have x new mails"-toast doesn't come up with each new mail. So you need to add a method to "scroll" thru the mails. Again, inpracticale...

What about the toasts (and thus mails) you're gonna miss? Because you _are_ gonna miss some toasts...

In short: a toast isn't a mailprogram, neither is MSN Messenger, nor Messenger Plus!.


Attempts, screenshots of how it could look, etc... are all being made in the past. Yet, no-one made a plugin or something for it because of the above reasons.
