[1.7][email module] keep conversations in workspace
« on: December 11, 2009, 12:59:44 pm »
When an incoming message is assigned to a workspace all other messages in that thread (conversation), received or to receive, should be automatically assigned to that workspace as well.
Would be VERY convenient.

I've noticed that Workspace assignment seems to be retained when a message sent by the Sender is first moved.
From that point, the subsequent messages seem to be all kept in the destination Workspace.
Need to check on this a bit more, though.

Sorry for resurrecting this one, but this hasn't been addressed as of 1.7 RC.
The basic idea is that once we assign an email conversation to a workspace, any subsequent replies should automatically be placed there too, otherwise i have to be re-assigning the conversation every time i get a reply.
Pretty annoying when one uses this facility on a daily basis.

It didn't make it for 1.7.
However, it will be available for next major release.

The problem about that is that is hard to keep track of your mails if every mail isn't in your inbasket.

For exaple, I work with 200+ workspaces, 3 other people in my team and 5 e-mail accounts. We receive like 20 mails per day by account and I know which one I have read and worked on because of my inbasket. If every mail goes to the workspace of the conversation it will almost impossible to keep track of every e-mail, considering that all new mail is going to that workspace, even the ones from other users, with are seen like unread for me.

Well, that is just my opinion.

Daniel.

Thanks Daniel and Nuno for your interest in this feature.

Implementation will be configurable (via a user config option).

Can you guys make it on time for 1.7 stable or will have to wait for 1.7.1?
As Daniel pointed out, it can be a true pain to constantly re-assign conversations.

Thanks a bunch!
