Support showing the sender's icon if they have one

[Zero3K]

It would be nice if it showed the sender's icon if they have one (like how Rainloop does so).

I've removed this feature because it relies on Gravatar (it's mentioned in the README.md).
It will not be back because many webmail users will not understand why 95% of their contacts has no image.

Could this be done by a plug-in though? Perhaps someone is willing to give plug-in making a try :)

I second this.

Either Gravatar should be there, even if it's optional.
Or you can bring BIMI support. Which might be better.

A lot of my contacts use that feature and missing a working feature is not ideal.

About Gravatar: #164 (comment)

I'm working on a redesign of the AddressBook system in branch https://github.com/the-djmaze/snappymail/tree/addressbook
When working, the sender icon would be better fitted in there.

I've added a plugin named avatars.
It does Gravatar but it should be extended with BIMI, Contacts vCard.PHOTO, etc.

Currently just download and install manually.

This last commit only works in next release.
And i have some trouble where to put avatar in messagelist (on the left where it has a conflct with the checkbox).

I'm not sure but with older versions the ✅ was to the left of the avatar?

It would be nice when if you have the plugin enabled the UI would hide the check box and make the avatar clickable to select the emails. Perhaps flip the avatar around to reveal a checked box or otherwise visualize "checking" the line.
Without the plugin just leave the check box as it always was.

I now have this:

I'm not sure but with older versions the white_check_mark was to the left of the avatar?

RainLoop didn't show avatar in MessageList. As the source shows no clue at all.

Added support for identicons. That makes the list a bit happier.

Works great! I did disable the "delay" option. Why is there this option?

Aaaaah! Sweet. My load is low so I just let'm rip.

[the-djmaze]

Or do you all prefer this kind of identicons?

[ervee]

Ooooh I do prefer that over the mosaic type identicons. Perhaps a toggle option in the addon :)
