Implement toggle mail as read
I took a shot at implementing this feature request. I started with a new action to toggle the mark as read flag on the selected mail message. I only did this action as it is personally useful for me.
As this would be my first contribution to Claws Mail, I would hope for some feedback whether this is actually a wanted feature. Would it make sense to add similar actions for any of Mark/Ignore/Watch as well?
Personally speaking, I don't see the point of this at all. I have a lot of mail that I scan the subjects and only open a few that interest me. Then I select the whole list and delete them en masse. Having a keyboard shortcut for "Mark as read" is important to me. (In reply to comment #3) > Having a keyboard shortcut for "Mark as read" is important to me. https://www.claws-mail.org/faq/index.php/Interface#How_can_I_change_the_key-bindings_.28hot-keys.29_in_Claws_Mail.3F I was looking for an option to add a "toggle read/unread status" hotkey, apparently I'm not the only one. Currently it's not possible to assign the same hotkey to two actions (mark as read and mark as unread) and have it work depending on the message's read status. Would a new patch to address this be accepted? There seems to be a previous patch which wasn't, therefore I wanted to ask before spending time on this. Otherwise please close this as wontfix so it's clear this is outside of the featureset of claws-mail. |
