Thanks for the feedback!

Could you point out what the main problems with the Webmail interface as you see it?

What webmail version do you use?

We are working hard the long term plans of Runbox now and the engineering bit is the largest part of that.

I have tried Runbox with the trial.

Sorry but for me this point is really important in 2011. It is not possible to answer or forward correctly an email in HTML, Runbox says that they work on it and on this forum I learn that this problem is a known issue since many years... really strange that in 2011 we can continue to find webmails without the support of answers/fwd in HTML. And it is a paid service...
Also when we know that Runbox is in the business since 10 years...

It is really an important point for me.

Also, can we know the future roadmap release? Is there a public roadmap release published somewhere to know on what problems/fix or new features Runbox is working on?

Thanks

I would enjoy RB having additional shorter domains to choose from.

Thanks for all the comments and positive feedback.

Regarding the forwarding of HTML messages: These are currently attached to the forwarded message automatically, and we'll look into inline HTML message forwarding.

Other than integrated domain registration and improved search capabilities which are currently in open beta test, we're working on message tagging as an alternative to organizing messages in folders. We're also planning file sharing capabilities, better contact management, and contact synchronization functionality.

The long-term goal is to integrate other means of communication such as social network messaging, instant messaging, and other digital messaging into Runbox in a user-friendly way to consolidate and organize communication in a more meaningful and efficient way.

We can make that happen, especially if anyone can suggest an available and catchy (?) name.

Thanks to search for a inline solution because the HTML attached to the message is not a solution.
Do we know if there is a deadline on this?

Here are a couple available "rnbx dot org" and "rubx dot us" I'm sure a determined search could find many more

Geir · 5 May 2011, 05:55 AM

We've registered rbox.co and rbox.me now, and they are synonymous with runbox.com, runbox.us, runbox.no, runbox.co.in, and runbox.co.

This means that you can now send email to username@rbox.co and it will arrive in your account as if it was sent to username@runbox.com.

Thank you so much Geir. I really appreciate your prompt action

It is a bit late for me to enter this thread and fix it but it has turned into two primary discussions. OP (digp) asked about a FM-alternative and it seems that has been under-served. The second discussion is where Geir jumped in to resolve the issues raised. I think that should have gone to another thread instead. So did that stop the discussion digp was asking for? Everyone knows I'm a FM supporter so I really was looking to find out some new things here...

Hi everybody,

I have created a new test account to verify if this feature was developed and apparently not.
I am very hesitant on my choice of the new webmail I need. I think that for the price and for the features I need Runbox is a good choice for me, but I really need the inline HTML answers/forwards in the webmail, this is not a whim but a need

Do we know when this will be planned to be developed?

Thanks a lot

We will improve that after we launch RMM6 (our main development priority now). We are are testing RMM6 these days and we hope to allow for external testing on it very soon.

Thanks Kim for your answer.

We can hope that this can be planned for the end of the year?

Thanks again

We had a team that just finished earlier tonight with the deployment of the test system with RMM6 (new platform), Varnish and a new cookie system (Thanks to Kirill and Daniel Bond from Copyleft).

Now we need to get the developers to go through the new system and make sure that things work as they should.

Hi Kim,

I'm excited to read about this and am looking forward to seeing this new version of the platform. Glad to hear that Kirill has been working on it. I always though his departure from Runbox years ago was a great loss to the company so I'm glad that he's still doing some work for you guys.

Thanks for the updates. Let us know if you need any beta testers; I'm always happy to help out.
