I also had a few problems matching a meaningful icon to an action. Here are the notes i made.

Encrypt = locked padlock (decrypt = unlocked padlock)
Send mail = parallelogram shaped envelope with go faster stripes
Send later = parallelogram shaped envelope with clock
Close = can’t see a useful icon
Insert file = file icon with plus
new window = can’t see a reason for this option

regards

Ian

I had trouble with a couple. I didn’t mentally connect any of the icons to the description, so i basically just picked on at random. ‘Send Mail via…’ was one of them. Unfortunately, I’m not really able offer a suggestion on improving. Maybe the email equivalent of having a sign that shows the UPS logo, FedEx logo and DLJ logo, whatever that would be.

Kmail rules!!!, with Evolution I can’t send mails through Hotmail (I know, Hotmail sucks), but I have no problem with Kmail. KDE is the best!!!

@Kver

I did not even see “Add new user” question. So are those random questions what users see or are all of them same?

On several questions I found no fitting icons. Such questions like “add new user” had literally no relevant icons.
