Hi all,

Roundcube is really great and sometimes I don't even bother to use my
MUA since it's easier to run roundcube. However, there are few things that
quite annoy me, and maybe I'm not the only one who is missing such functionality...

1. When I'm moving a large number of messages, I don't know how many of them
  are being moved. OK, I can check the number of messages in mailbox before
  and after, but that's not comfortable and might be misleading if some new messages
  arrive before I mode messages.
  So far I'm dealing with it by marking messages, then setting them as unread, and
  set as read again - but that's still much more than it should need to know how
  many messages I'm moving :)
  Isn't it possible to count the number of messages and display overall number of
  moved messages over the list of messages?

A strong +1 from my side. I have lots of users who move quite many e-mails to different folders. Sometimes this process takes a while and it would be nice if at the top the status is shown. Example:
Moved 15/45 messages
The counter increases every second to see that Roundcube is working.
I've already had the bad experience that a user was moving A LOT of mails to a different folder and expected to happen this immediately. During the move, Roundcube is non-responsive (to prevent other user actions) but the user just closed his browser because he thought the browser froze. This caused a weird loop in the mail server creating thousands of messages in the tmp folder of the users mail dir.
So an actual status of the move process would be very good to see!
 

2. When I have dozens of new messages and I just need to mark as read, I'm clicking
   on them with CTRL in order to mark and then "mark as read". However, if sometimes
   I accidentally double click on a message, it is being opened and all messages are
   unmarked again.
   I _never_ use doubleclick - I don't need it, and if I definitely want to see the message
   maximized I can click on the "maximize" icon in upright corner in Subject: line.
   How about some possibility to disable doubleclick - the best would be to make it
   configurable per user, since people have various habits and some might even like it?

Most users know the double click from their mail application like Outlook and deactivating it would cause more trouble than good. But maybe an option to deactivate it (per user) could be set.
 

3. I have lots of folders in order to have data categorized as well as possible. However, there
   are some folders with thousands of messages, and if I have a setting of maximum 200 messages
   per page - it is quite hard to click maany times to get to page 25 for example.
   How about something like "goto page" and possibility to enter a number?
   It would be even nicer to have the possibility to search messages by date, but I assume
   this is much harder to implement...

On one hand the goto page isn't a bad idea, but this wouldn't be necessary (I guess) if the search allowed to narrow down the results by setting date/time ranges.
+1 for an advanced search :-)
