Request: New Email Widget
 

I think this is something most people will appreciate, but i don't know how possible it is to implement. I thought i'd ask as we have new media player widget and calendar widget.

I have 4 email accounts and the default widget is a bit of a joke - the size isn't customisable so i can't make it bigger or smaller to accommodate more emails, which is problematic as one account may get many more emails than the others, and it can't be used with nokia messaging.

Also, the widget is extremely plain. What i'd like is something that can be resized, and perhaps we can scroll/toggle, so that rather than all accounts being on the one window, each window can be one account and the next page can be the next account etc.

What i like about the Android email widget is the ability to actually open an email within it, and reply/delete too. If that's not possible, an ability to delete would be handy so we could delete spam without waiting for modest to open, load, select account, delect, close app.

If this is at all feasible it'd make a really great addition to many desktops

Modest is way to slow to use to erase spam mail...

I really hope nicolai can create a new and customizable email widget.
But I guess he's pretty busy at the moment...

any other skilled coder out there that has time?

shameless bump

When I first used the email widget I was surprised that it takes you straight into standard modest and not the actual message that you tap. It's a bit annoying, and smacks of shameless laziness by the maemo5 developers.

Add me to the list of eager testers. The email widget really could use a fresh start.

i agree too. i'm a new owner of a N900 (since 3 weeks) and i was really disappointed as a tried out the included email widget. at least a single email should be selectable and should open with a click.
(even a click on an incoming email message is not opening the message itself. this was working on my old N810)

is the source code available for the build in version?
i didn't find it.

cheers
