This really should be an option... Oh well... What is irritating about this is that the initial line is just text. As soon as the icons get inserted this changes the line height, and shifts all other text down. Annoying. How about inserting a small blank xpm of the proper height immediately, to reserve the line height. > 2) Stupid useless improvements: > - The icons are now displayed as a real email address rather than > just as icons.

I'd rather see this changed in the From: line. Then the X-Face, which is currently shown there just after the From: could be included in the email-address as well, and we would have the picons all in one place.
