PeterPepper Posted December 3, 2004 Share Posted December 3, 2004 Let me specify a few problems with it: * Only 15 addresses displayed per page; and no option to change this. Why can't I just see all of addresses on one page? * There is no way to go to a particular page. The user must hit the 'Next' button to goto their desired page. This morning I had 25 pages in my whitelist (see my follow-up post to find out why so many). Do you know how frustrating it is to hit the 'Next' button 25 times just to get to the last page? (After a while I figured out I could change the 'page=' argument within the URL, but I seriously doubt if the average user would catch on to that.) * If a user deletes an address (let's say on page 25), the system returns the user to the first page therefore causing the user to hit the 'Next' button 25 more times to get back to their desired location. Very frustrating indeed. * There is no way to edit the address itself. A user must delete the address and then add it back if it simply needs to be updated. * There is no way to select all the addresses to delete. A user must manually click EVERY selection checkbox to select them all. Let's see, if I had wanted to delete my entire whitelist this morning, I would have had to manually click 375 checkboxes (25 pages x 15 addresses per page = 375 checkboxes) to delete them. And that doesn't include all the 'Next' button clicks to just get to the desired pages. I spent over a hour cleaning up my whitelist this morning. Whereas if it were a properly designed and user friendly interface it should have taken no more than 2 minutes. The White/Black List Interface Is *NOT* User Friendly at all and is a big time-consumer. For a white/black listing interface, PLEASE implement what SC had before SC implemented the Horde system. Just give us a big text box where we can cut and paste a list of addresses to submit. It certainly would make my life easier. Keep it simple stupid. Or at the very least give us the option to see ALL of our white/black list entries on ONE page. Rant - Over and out. PP Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PeterPepper Posted December 3, 2004 Author Share Posted December 3, 2004 SC has a confirmation dialog for submitting spam. Why doesn't it have the same confirmation for releasing and whitelisting? This morning I scanned my held mail folder for legit email. After I had cleared it and there was only spam left, I selected all messages and attempted to report them as spam. Unfortunately my wireless mouse had a hiccup and I ended up clicking 'Release and Whitelist' instead. There was no confirmation dialog to make sure I wanted to do this. So I ended up with a cluttered inbox and 222 unwanted spammers' email addresses in my whitelist. I spent over a hour cleaning all this up (see my post on the whitelist interface not being user friendly to find why it took so long). Please implement an 'Are You Sure?' confirmation dialog for releasing and whitelisting. PP Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DavidT Posted December 4, 2004 Share Posted December 4, 2004 SC has a confirmation dialog for submitting spam. Why doesn't it have the same confirmation for releasing and whitelisting? Very good point. I agree with you 100%. DT Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MyNameHere Posted December 29, 2004 Share Posted December 29, 2004 Just referencing some more info on this topic in another thread: If you ignore the "attitude," PeterPepper has already come up with java scri_pt that fixes the problem, here: http://forum.spamcop.net/forums/index.php?...indpost&p=21185 I pray that the appropriate people look at this and decide it's worth doing!

Jeff G. Posted December 29, 2004 Share Posted December 29, 2004 This is also a good idea. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
