This is so cool! I have been unable to use Eudora at work due to our firewall so I like the option of being able to read it with this but yet still be able to get the same mail in Eudora at home. Now I don't have to worry about getting mail if my home computer goes down. It appears very user friendly and what I couldn't figure out, the Help section answered any questions. Thanks FQ.

Nitpick time: The <body> tag has no bgcolor element, and for those of us who don't use the horridly bright white background for everything, it means that page shows up as per our preferences... and trust me, it looks UGLY.

Might wanna fix that.

feedback.. here goes

i like the concept BUT..
when I sent.. i get this text file. looks like i am reading html coding in note pad.

could the "send message" or "send" be a bit more obvious?

when saving changes, that page reloads.. could there be an added notation that "changes have been saved" ?

Other than that.. I like it. It takes some getting used to, as certain buttons that generally be more obvious are not so noticeable there.

a compliment:
I think it is great that FQ did this for their clients whom need it..

Where are you referring to? When I am in places like the Address Book and I save changes, their is a message that says "Address Book Changes Saved"

I imagine some more redesign of the graphics as time goes on..

Again, I'm not exactly sure where you are referring to?

This is a great feature and sure to be popular. Thanks!

Very nice! Thank you. I'm currently traveling and when I do, I leave all mail on the server and then handle/file/delete as appropriate when I return home. QuestMail is really nice for reviewing the mail on the server and deleting those items that need not be saved to reduce the "ton" of mail I usually handle when I return home.

Thanks again for a useful and feature rich mail interface.

I get the same as Hearts. Hitting 'send message' just produces the resulting html output from QuestMail.fcgi. Guessing either a permission problem or that fcgi extension hasn't been added ?

I've also made a few more changes to the look and feel of it... including a few larger buttons and text etc (thanks LeafWind for walking through it with me)

Very nice!

Now I can put skip my own project, which weren't working anyway

One question though. I have a IRM on my account. On another service I used to access my mailaccounts I could choose to use either hakan@webbolaget.com or hakan@ahlbergs.net as sender. Is there a way to do it in QuestMail. I have looked around in Options but there is only a box to put mailadress.

Is there a way to choose hakan@ahlbergs.net as sender without editing the Options everytime. Otherwise you may take this as a suggestion to improvement. It would be nice with a pull-down-menue in which I can choose sender defined in Oprions.

But this is still great!
