The thing is that it is not logical to have the send, save as concept and cancel button on the right while all the other things are on the left.
One other thing is that the "logo" should be an home link, like it was.
Cheers!

And where can I

Good question! I wouldn't like to see it
hidden in some option expander.
What a difference, link or expander.
I see you need more screenshots ;), see http://alec.pl/larry [1]. Keep in mind that these are only ideas, the look will be improved slightly + icons for toolbar.
I really don't see an improvement in the new
expand-all-options-and-headers-at-once solution you're proposing for
the compose screen.
There are several levels of "expansion" in the
current compose screen
(so as they where in the old skin). It's common
that one wants to add
a CC or BCC field when composing a new message.
This level of
extensibility is perfectly covered with the (+) Add ...
links we now
have. More advanced options are hidden in the area
between headers and
the body. I use them way less than adding a CC.
Therefore it makes
sense to me, to have them in a different location
and hidden by a
separate Options button. Since they mostly affect
message headers, the
location of this options palette is IMO just
right.
You now propose to expand everything on one click and smash
a shitload
of options into a dummy user's face who just wants to add a
CC line.
That's a regression and not an optimization to me.
As a
side note, the two-step header expansion in message (pre)view
isn't
perfect either. I was confused by the up/down arrows appearing
when I
expanded the headers in message preview. Showing all headers is
again
a very power-user feature and should not use the same element as
to
just show the regular headers. And there's no way to hide them
anymore. Furthermore, I don't exactly understand why in full message
view mode the headers are collapsed by default. There we have enough
space and all basic headers should be show right away. The reason to
hide them in preview mode was because they're redundant to what is
displayed in the message list above and vertical space is limited.
Overall, I'm not very happy with the changes you're suggesting or
which you already committed to git master. But I'd very much like some
more persons to speak up on this. Otherwise we'll end up in a Thomas
vs. Alec fight here.
Best, Thomas
