This is embarrassing, I just reread the e-mail , and realized theya re
talking about the message folders and not the message list. I am now
seeing this problem, and am experiencing the same thing. I still don't
think the folders lists should be turned into valid HTML links though!
boy is my face red.

Although there would be some immediate benefit for people expecting web-like behavior (single click on a message to open it, ctrl-click to open it in a new window, etc), it would immediately shift the direction of development from building an \"application-like\" interface to building a \"web-like\" interface, which I think would undermine the greatness and potential greatness of roundcube. In fact, I\'m an advocate for removing the HTML links that are already in the message list (the e-mail addresses) to further adhere to an \"application-like\" interface, and I\'m starting to come around on the idea of javascript context menus (that could be easily disabled).
