Latest UI mocks for Atmail 6

January 4, 2009

With the new year ahead, the Atmail development team have been hard at work designing the next generation user-interface for Atmail.

We are publishing the latest screenshots of the new interface, and welcome any user feedback for our designs. Currently the user-interface is migrated into the new PHP branch as a skeleton, more development is still required for a live beta.

All new purchases of the current Atmail 5, will have a free upgrade to the new Atmail version once launched.

Our general aims for the new UI include:

  • A feature rich UI for IE6, IE7+, Safari and Firefox
  • A single unified interface for the Webmail interface
  • Mail, Calendar, Addressbook in an easy to use interface
  • CSS skinning available, allow the admin to easily skin Atmail into their own look

Read Message Panel:

  • View the entire screenshot
  • Mail threading view
  • More simple HTML message editor
  • Thumbnails for attachments ( PDFs, MS word, show inline images, etc )
  • Quick reply view
  • Open message in a new window option

View messages:

Atmail 6 Showmail concept

  • View the entire screenshot
  • Drag and Drop messages to folders inbuilt
  • Quick view of the message conversation available
  • Number of attachments available on preview, click attachment icon to download attachments directly
  • All messages actions ( Reply, Reply All, Forward, Trash, Spam ) available in the top toolbar
  • 2 Pane, or 3 pane toggle available to view messages inline, or in the entire window

We welcome any user feedback on our new user-interface mocks, our ETA for a beta of the new Atmail 6 is early March 2009.

  5. Will Atmail 6 also support downloading POP-mail right into the regular inbox? We already have the “Multi-account” feature in version 5, but my users must login multiple times to get to their POP-mail. It would be perfect if atmail 6 could also download the POP-account-messages directly into the atmail-inbox.

    If this will not be implemented it would also be a GREAT improvement if the passwords (connected to the “Multi Accounts”) could be saved so the user doesn’t have to enter them EVERY time again.

  6. So, how is 6.x going? Do you have an updated release date?

    In the directory box on the left, how about the next 7 days appointments?

    Looks nice.

  7. Looks great but please put attachment icons of at top of email. It is a pain in really long emails to go all the way to the bottom to click on the attachment. Look forward to trying out v6. Keep up the great work!
