New Webmail theme - Page 3

smithmb001 · 10 Dec 2014, 12:52 PM

When I click on Compose with the Compose in same window option selected a new popup window displays that shows my entire web mail box along with a compose Window. I was able to duplicate this in FireFox and Chrome.

If you select Compose in a new window the popup is just the compose window. Changing it back do Compose in same window has no effect.

I'm having mixed results with the new Verdana Pro font. The letters are a little blurry (especially with the SemiBold) using IE 9 and IceDragon under Windows 7 on two older 19" Dell workstation monitors. When testing with a 14", Windows 8.1 laptop, the font was again blurry using IceDragon, but completely unacceptable with IE 11. All monitors used had a 4:3 aspect ratio.

However, the font rendered fine on a widescreen, Windows 8.1 laptop using IE 11 and IceDragon.

One very, very minor observation regarding the Compose window... On all machines and browsers tested, the Subject textbox was 2 pixels longer than the three textareas above it (To, CC, BCC). This appears intentional, so maybe it was to accommodate something I don't use.

Agreed. I just got this pushed to me yesterday and the thin and small font is tough for us non-millenials. I wear glasses and I still had to bump Firefox zoom to 150%. Even just making the fonts bold would be great.

Otherwise, it looks great - thank you for working on this!

I am not totally sure but I think we could see the contact list on the right side when we were composing a new message in the old webmail theme, but now it´s not there...

Thanks for the feedback -- we are planning to add an alternative theme with the regular Verdana font face which is more legible and renders more consistently on various browsers/platforms.

jl66: Just click "Show all fields" in Compose to display the contact list.

Any idea when this will be implemented?

You can now switch to (and from) the Aero theme in Webmail > Preferences.

Also, we've added a more legible version of the Aero theme, using the regular Verdana font face.

You will find this version in the Theme drop-down menu as well.
