Thread list separators depending on sort attribute

Open ChristophWurst opened this issue 8 months ago • 5 comments

Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.

As a Nextcloud Mail user I want to get an overview of my inbox quickly. Looking at many unread messages can be overwhelming.

Describe the solution you'd like

Group and separate threads by the sort attribute (send date right now):

  • Messages within the last hour
  • Messages today
  • Messages yesterday
  • Messages last week
  • Messages last month
  • etc

When sorting by subject, the sections could be per first letter (A, B, C, ...), for message size in size groups (<10kB, 10kB-500kB, 500kB-1MB, 1MB+) and sender by sender email ([email protected], [email protected], ...)

Collapsing the sections is a nice-to-have but not required for the first version.

Describe alternatives you've considered

I guess these options will be added to the Mail Settings where we already have newst and oldest

I don't plan to have an option for this. It should be on by default. The sections are determined by the sorting attribute. Since Mail can only sort by date right now, it will only be date section for now.

ohhh so you just want to add the separators. Not the new sortings as well, like:

first letter (A, B, C, ...), for message size in size groups (<10kB, 10kB-500kB, 500kB-1MB, 1MB+) and sender by sender email ([email protected], [email protected], ...)

I thought you wanted these as new options
