Good. But what I want to see, is Opera web browser _without_ an email client (and all the other stuff I never use.) Opera browser badly needs some slimming down.
Call me old fashioned, but I deliberately use a prehistoric email client _precisely_ because it does not know anything about active content. Barely even handles html. And I like it that way.
Now if Opera's email client had a big master switch, to totally disable all features beyond strictly dumb ASCII, and a means to import huge old mail archives from Eudora, then I'd be interested.
Edit: Correction: to disable anything beyond dumb ASCII plus UTF-8 foreign language support. But NOT html or any other active content.
- exterm 13y agoopera browser without e-mail client: http://www.opera.com/developer/next http://www.opera.com/developer/next Not for linux yet, though.
- TerraHertz 13y agoGood news. I'm OK with Windows - I'd rather be enraged with Microsoft, than with the Million Monkey syndrome.
- pestaa 13y agoI think I could connect the Million Monkey syndrome to the Linux ecosystem, but what does it exactly mean?
- faaaah 13y agoI ran a clean installation of Opera 12, and there was no e-mail client. It is actually there, but you won't even notice unless you set up an account. So to anyone who doesn't make an account it's exactly as if there was no email client. And your comment about slimming down Opera is quite funny considering that Opera 12 with a full mail client is less than half the size of Chrome...
