The item 'GMail IMAP support' can probably be a subpoint under 'Simple Account Setup', as it is an example of an ISP-specific setup. My concern here is that it would involve a lot of work to cover all possible ISP setups across the world, not to mention non-public corporate or institutional setups. Thus, equal effort should be given to the extension of the Account Wizard to allow alternate encryption and port settings to be entered already during the initial setup. A partial patch is pending review for more than two years now in [https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=221030 bug 221030]. --[[User:Rsx11m|Rsx11m]] 21:13, 24 February 2008 (PST) | The item 'GMail IMAP support' can probably be a subpoint under 'Simple Account Setup', as it is an example of an ISP-specific setup.

You mention that there are currently 1300+ RFE's for Thunderbird pending, this does not include some 800+ [https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/buglist.cgi?query_format=advanced&short_desc_type=allwordssubstr&short_desc=&product=Core&component=MailNews%3A+Address+Book&component=MailNews%3A+Attachments&component=MailNews%3A+Backend&component=MailNews%3A+BiDi+Hebrew+%26+Arabic&component=MailNews%3A+Composition&component=MailNews%3A+Database&component=MailNews%3A+Filters&component=MailNews%3A+Import&component=MailNews%3A+Internationalization&component=MailNews%3A+LDAP+Integration&component=MailNews%3A+Localization&component=MailNews%3A+MIME&component=MailNews%3A+Movemail&component=MailNews%3A+Networking&component=MailNews%3A+Palm+Sync&component=MailNews%3A+Printing&component=MailNews%3A+Profile+Migration&component=MailNews%3A+Search&component=MailNews%3A+Security&component=MailNews%3A+Simple+MAPI&long_desc_type=allwordssubstr&long_desc=&bug_file_loc_type=allwordssubstr&bug_file_loc=&status_whiteboard_type=allwordssubstr&status_whiteboard=&keywords_type=allwords&keywords=&bug_status=UNCONFIRMED&bug_status=NEW&bug_status=ASSIGNED&bug_status=REOPENED&bug_severity=enhancement&emailassigned_to1=1&emailtype1=substring&email1=&emailassigned_to2=1&emailreporter2=1&emailqa_contact2=1&emailtype2=substring&email2=&bugidtype=include&bug_id=&votes=&chfieldfrom=&chfieldto=Now&chfieldvalue=&cmdtype=doit&order=Reuse+same+sort+as+last+time&field0-0-0=noop&type0-0-0=noop&value0-0-0= RFE's for the MailNews Core] modules. About 120+ (total) of those RFE's have at least partial patches up for review, thus would be easier to add than others. It may be worth to go through those to determine which ones fit into the concepts for TB3, and to give them some increased priority. --[[User:Rsx11m|Rsx11m]] 21:21, 24 February 2008 (PST) | |||
