Opera Mail - Bugs in html editor
-

I use Opera Mail for more than 12 years.
Things that I love about it are:
-
customizable interface,
-
it is fast even with 30K+ messages,
-
easy to use (fast learning curve),
-
fast search,
-
Messages can have following states: Unread (bold blue), Read (bold black), Marked as Read and Pinned
-
Custom Flag options for categorization
-
Dictionary for English words
What I don't like about it are:
-
You removed option to enter the exact font size of the text (Increase/decrease font size isn't good enough),
-
No table editor,
-
It jams more time then I would like and even breaks sometimes (fortunately one mostly doesn't lose his work when this happens),
-
HTML editor is very buggy and it has serious issues with content copied from MS Office documents,
-
User can't take a look at a HTML code of the whole email and manually fix the HTML issues (please add this feature).
-
No support for PGP/GPG and S/MIME.
The thing that annoys me the most about Opera Mail is its HTML editor.
It's is just no where near MS Outlook or TinyMCE with stability and options.
I understand that there needs to be a lot of work to make it as powerful as MS Outlook, but at least you can fix bugs and errors in features that are already there.
Here are a few that I can remember:
-
Number/unordered lists copied from MS Office documents do not stay lists,
-
Nesting lists inside a list when it is copied from a web page doesn't look as it should
-
The size of spacing between two rows can vary significantly. Option two choose < br> or <p></p> would be much appreciated.
-
Inserting image on the right of the text isn't possible,
-
Practically, there are no options for working with images
I urge other forum members to support this post by stating what Opera Mail features they like and don't like and hopefully we could make a pressure on Dev team to implement some of them.

I hope you are wrong
Even though I have read the https://forums.opera.com/topic/2320/opera-mail-is-this-product-discontinued
I hope Opera will continue to support this great product.
