Ho, ho.
Well, it is and it does.
When you hover the mouse, there is no description. There is no "help" button. I tried the "delete" button the other day to see what it was. Delete an email from the archive, I was seeking for. ALAS! It wanted to delete the mail list itself!
I was only talking about the page for the header filters, but when you consider the intended audience, overall the admin-side web UI is pretty good.
The audience is a total rookie in mail list administration, who has to go by touch, and might do something wrong. :-p
That goes for everyone at some point.
Well, IMO it should have some documentation or help.
A while ago I seem to remember you saying it had to "be intuitive, documentation not needed" :-) I don't remember what the topic was.
True, I said that :-) But few applications are designed that way in the Linux world. They have to have a help button, for instance; or when hovering the mouse over an option or button a text help would automatically appear; or pressing "F1" help would appear (two kinds: general, or contextual). Which is not the case with Postorious.
There is certainly room for someone to improve on it, we have one or two open tickets too.
It is not stock from upstream?
Yes it is, but someone might decide to fix something locally and then submit a PR to the upstream project. I think I opened a ticket on the timestamp format in the archive using a 12hour clock, for instance. It might be a simple config option, I don't know.
Let me guess: no documentation on how to do that :-D
Well, my guess is it is a locale setup topic, so there is plenty of documentation on that.
