Interesting Inbox priority interface #21

Being able to postpone messages and have them reappear is interesting. Will ponder :) |

Also see Boomerang, which adds this functionality to Gmail. (I use it regularly.) Being able to schedule outgoing email would be a massive feature - but maybe it's something that could be added by an extension? |

This is a feature that I've wanted for desktop mail for a long time. Boomerang has a nice way of handling "remind me later" emails, and the app screens from Mailbox look fantastic. User extension, built in feature, whatever, as long as the app could handle it. I could never get on board with those web services that require you to forward them the email (like http://www.followup.cc/) |

Mailbox looks very well designed and I think the snooze feature is very interesting. If Mailpile would focus on design and encryption that would be the killer combo IMO. |
|
Is the schedule feature a feature for receiving inbox mails or for scheduling outgoing mails? |
|
@bvorak I believe it is to pick a date that the email shows back up in your box... seems like it would be useful for appointments, events and such |
|
Yeah I see, but the other way around I would like it too :D |
|
Then you are once again left with the problem of "what if my box is off at that time" though... Not saying this should not be a feature, but it introduces a bunch of new UX pitfalls and is probably not quick to implement correctly and user-friendly. |

IMO, the snooze feature is a more useful then timed emails. On Mon, Apr 28, 2014 at 5:40 PM, Max notifications@github.com wrote:

- Simpler interface for enabling the autotagger (tags.X.auto_tag = True) - Add tags.X.auto_after and tags.X.auto_action for performing actions on threads that have been "idle" in a tag for a certain number of days - Use auto_after/auto_action to move spam to trash after 30 days This will be used to automatically delete messages from the Trash after a certain period of time as well (#945), but we're not enabling that by default just yet. This could also be used to implement snooze features (issue #21) by creating tags that both hide messages from results, and automatically untag themselves from a message after some time has passed.
Came across an article about Dropbox releasing some API updates and among those updates was something to do with Email synchronization... then I learned Dropbox had acquired the MUCH hyped iOS email client "Mailbox" a few months ago... something to the tune of $50 - 100 Million. WTF!!! I had never even seen Mailbox as back in Feb it had this ridiculously long waiting queue to get to the use the friggin app. Anyway, there is a nice video which I took some screenshots from.
There are two aspects which are particularly of note: 1) sorting of emailing within relation to "time" you plan to deal with email
The other is the "chat style" of relying to conversations, which is quite nice looking.
Watch the whole video about the app interface here Mailbox App
