I am using betterbird and donated, but to be honest: some basic functionality is ridiculously difficult.

Adding attachments.

Forwarding messages,
it is impossible to forward with attachments.
It just doesn't work. I checked the config editor and should keep attachments ... but it still doesn't.

Forwarding while keeping and quoting the original messages.

Also impossible. I know the settings for this is behind manage identities (wtf does this have to do with managing identities.... I have literally no idea) and also I checked in the config editor if the corresponding setting was set on true. And it was , but still it does not quote the previous messages when I push reply.

What is the logic behind making simple rudimentary tasks so incredibly difficult?

I switched to Linux from OSX 3-4 months ago... and e-mail is pretty much the only thing hat I am having difficulties with :(

Can anyone advice / help me ?

So basically I have tried Scribus for an afternoon trying to make a cv. Whilst making shapes en filling them is quite easy, control over fonts or making text frame or image frame lines invisible or adding colors in stead of the EGA monitor options... seem impossible for this publishing software. Even tho I greatly respect the effort of this open source project. But you might as well pack up if such simple functions are not present. I have tried several work arounds. Edit colors gave me the option to add one color. But for design purposes this workaround is incredibly laborious. Also for line styles I added a style "no line" with black line of 0,00 mm and opacity to 0% . This sometimes works sometimes doesn't . And different fonts... don't get me started.... it often lags or hangs .... Otherwise this program looks simple powerful and great, but having these basic functions respond so irratically, I am more inclined to go to other software for my publishing need mmm

Question :

Does anyone else think the new UI is incredibly terrible? I have to do so much effort to continue te last watched stuff. There should be a separate page with the icon of a little clock where u get a nice overview of what u watched. It is such an empty app now. I really don't like it.
