Opera 7 beta 2 Released!
Oh yeah....
Opera 7, beta 2, for Windows has been released.
This rocks. As anyone who actually reads this little site knows, I love Opera, but Beta 2 is very cool.
M2 is the best mail client ever. Sure it's not perfect yet, but I love it. Accesspoints are awesome. Filters have been improved. For those of you coming over from Outlook Express, there is an import feature. I imported messages from Outlook into Mozilla, and then imported them into M2 and it worked flawlessly, and I'm talking about 20,000 messages (yes really).
There's also the Wand - a Password Manager for Opera. Yup... and it works really well too.
Then there's the Links panel in the Hotlist, which shows you all of the links in given page.
You can now Drag and Drop the panels into whatever order you prefer them to be in, and they will stay there. You can also choose to show or hide the built-in panels.
One of these days I'll have to talk about all the configuration you can do to change the menus and the keyboard shortcuts, but for now, go and check it out!
Comments
Very much agreed about your comments.
Rijk van Geitenbeek, a Dutch guy working for Opera (talk about having a great job!) has made his menu.ini available, at Rijk's Opera tweaks and tips website.
I have made my own search.ini (with different translation engines) available at an Opera customizing thread at the Proxomitron forum (requires registration to post, reading is free).
Thanks for continuing this weblog, you are a source of good info for me :)

Glad you like the email client so much. However, I can't say I agree with you yet. Thought you might like to try to answer a question for me though. Can I use a third party email client with Opera 7.2? I have tried using the settings and that doesn't seem to work.
Thx
