Mailspring Avatars

Plugins
#21

I agree. This plugin alone makes a huge difference. It should be a default feature.

#24

#25

#26

I like the idea of this plugin, but I have two issues with it that I could not resolve myself:

  1. With certain window sizes the avatars are not just shown once, but twice for each message. As if both small and large avatar are triggered simultaneously. Making my window bigger avoids the issue, but I don’t want to do this :wink:
  2. Resizing the window triggers mailspring to re-fetch all gravatars that previously failed to fetch. These “404 - File Not Found” results should probably be cached somehow to avoid excessive requests to gravatar.com.

Thanks for your feedback.

  1. The problem of duplicate images has been solved in the last release.
  2. I haven’t found any solution to prevent 404 errors display in the console. If someone has an idea how to do this I’m interested :grimacing:

This is awesome! It’s so much easier to go through my emails and locate emails that I WANT to read. Thanks for this one!

Thanks for this plugin. For me, this was the only big feature I was missing in vanilla Mailspring.

I’m happy to find out that you created a solution for this! Works great in the current version of Mailspring (1.11.0).

I did it with Windows, but may help.
In mailspring-avatars>styles>index.less file, I changed top to 20px

.thread-injected-mail-labels {
.thread-avatar{
margin: 1px;
position: fixed !important;
top: 20px;
left: 7px;
transform: translate3d(0, 0px, 0px) scale(.8);
transition: all .15s cubic-bezier(0.35, 0.91, 0.41, 0.99);
}
