OpenNTF Mail Experience - Feature Request: Text-only preview/message display?


There's a registry key which stops Outlook from rendering any 'active' code in a mail message, effectively making the message plain text, and preventing IE exploits and live virus loads from firing off. I've seen a couple of places now where they receive 'active' virus payloads into Notes and the preview pane being open is enough to infect the machine - generally this is older viruses on machines where the user has been lazy about anti-virus updates (or laptops left in a drawer, all those kinds of problems)...

So what would be nice is something like a preference setting in the file which forces the use of @ABSTRACT() or similar on the content of the Body, so that what's displayed is dead as mutton until someone presses "see rendered original" or whatever; that way, people with risky email addresses or a need to work on email streams which may contain viruses or malware don't suffer when they forget to close the preview pane...

In this field you can enter the actual request.

You can use the rich text editor for rich text formating. You can also enter HTML to embed objects, e.g. to embed a YouTube video or a screenshot of the project. In this case use '[' and ']' to mark the passthrough HTML as such.

Please note that the first time you use the new UI your description is converted from rich text to MIME. You might want to copy and paste the raw plain text from the old UI in the new UI so that you don't loose information.
