10.4: Use keyboard navigation in Mail's message pane
Authored by: Apogaion on May 11, '05 03:34:19PM

I also like the new Mail layout, but I really dislike the buttons for two reasons.

  • 1. I think that the pill backgrounds are way ugly
  • 2. The new buttons do not represent their actions as well as those in Panther's Mail.app.

I consider the second point to be a significant problem. I've had Tiger installed for over a week now, and I still have to look closely at the buttons and think for a while to figure out which one I want to press. The worst offender I think is the button to check for new mail. In the Tiger version, it has a single letter in an envelope; this says to me send, not receive. In Panther, the check for mail button very obviously represented its purpose.
