Re: you know what would be a fantastic email feature?

there should have been a second email almost immediately after the first one... did you not receive it?

She didn't, but I did, I was wondering wtf they were.

Now if there was a plugin that just could detect you were sending it to the right person.

Great, now that you (and I ) realized it. Can you attach your slides this time. LMAO.

I believe Thunderbird has an extension that does the same as well.

this is just me thinking out loud (as i just shot off an email to someone concerning a talk and didn't include an attachment of my slides on attempt #1) but maybe others share my pain and can have a laugh or a light bulb go off in their mind...

wouldn't it be nice if an email client could do a fast parse of your text when you attempt to hit send, grep for variations of the verb attach, and pop up an alert box to the effect of "you used the word 'attached' twice in this email but there is no attachment present... did you forget something?"

i hardly ever attach things to message, often i prefer to just drop a file on my web server or transfer it by other means that aren't going to clog someone's tubes... particularly if they're checking mail on a slow pipe. still, on the rare occasions when i do want to, i'd venture a guess that i hit <send> without remembering to grab the necessary file more than half of the time.

so there you have it... write a piece of software like that and make your millions. or, alternately, write a free Thunderbird extension and just have throngs of admirers and groupies whenever you come to con.
