User:Klebezettel/Headers Framework

Goals

• Framework for headers shared between PIM Applications (KMail, Knode, Akregator)
• Consistent headers for KMail, Knode, Akregator (Kopete?)
• Template Thingy - HTML/CSS/XML? (we need some research to find out what's best)
• User configurable headers, easy to install

Resources

Applications

• Kopete's chat window style is completely themeable
• Look at other E-Mail clients

• KDE-PIM user css controlled mail appereance... reload.

• KDE-PIM Nice headers for akregator

• KDE-PIM KMail Usability Issues

the text-area of the "mail-preview"-window is relatively small because of the large size of the header and the topic, an option to collapse it (Thunderbird, *hint*, *hint* ;) ) would be great

...to be continued
