Hi
Some suggestions about software behavior :
- Vmail
o if you’re in mail composition there’s no
functionality of copying/pasting anything
o different sorting methods for messages
( right now there’s only a date look change
possibility )
should be possible to sort by each field
- by date
- by sender
- by subject
there should always be a possibility to
switch on the threading ordering
o GetMsg from news server gets only XX messages
only at a time ( XX=100 ? ).
[ I had to ‘getmsg’ 10 times before
downloaded all messages and got fresh ones ]

Select with the mouse or cursor.
Ctrl-C to copy
Ctrl-V to paste

You can do all of these for mail, but true, only by
date for news.
- by date
- by sender
- by subject

100 is the default. You can change this
in Edit menu → Configuration → Newsreader tab
→ Number of headers to download
Then Get Msg button will get those number of
headers you’ve specified. This is covered in
the Reading articles task in Vmail’s Help menu
→ Quick Reference
For more information about Photon’s hotkeys
and how to configure Vmail and Voyager Browser,
check out the Photon Technotes. To get these
technotes, you’ll need to download Photon
