Why the 30 day limit?
I wanted to send myself an email to myself tomorrow, and yet it said that it couldn't because of a 30 day limit?

Add landscape support to iPhone app
Currently the iPhone version does not support landscape. I prefer typing any amount in landscape.

Under the "date sent to" tab, allow us to see the titles of the letters we haven't received yet
You can see this under the "date written" tab, why not make it so we can see the unopened letters chronologically too?

allow us to see upcoming dates of future letters in ascending order, like before
So, I used to make sure I got a letter every month from some time in the past, but now since you can't see what letters are coming up (as far as "date received" goes, you can only see letters that have been received, but not the letters in order of when they will arrive), I can't plan for the future like I did before. Is there a way to make it go back to how it was?

Adding videos
Be able to add videos to your email - for example if you wanted to take a video or your family life and pets, then you can see it in 63 years! That would be pretty awesome ;)

Let us change our timezones.
So that I can opt to send myself an email on NYE or something, and actually receive it on NYE (australia time) and not according to a different timezone.

wish I could post for dates less than one month away. I'd like to write to tomorrow.
Whenever I start a new challenge (for example, NaNoWriMo or train for a 5K), it would be nice to be able to talk to me every day during that challenge, even if the decision to join is made less than 30 days from the start of the challenge

Integrate Facebook to be able to receive letters as a second means in the future
If we link our facebook to the letter (seeing that facebook is there for almost everyone) Future me can send the letter to my inbox also!

Let us be able to send this to facebook.
This will assure me that I will receive my message that I sent for myself, It would be more fun cause it will show up all of a sudden, instead of opening my e-mail at that date just to check it, thanks.

allow a mode for educators that does not involve sidebar letters with inappropriate content.
My students will no longer be able to use this site because of inappropriate letters posted on the sidebar.

Fix the functionality of the attachment feature.
Greetings! For some time I have tried to attach pictures without success; I'm talking about over a year now without getting it to work! I've tried in Opera, IE, Firefox, and Chrome. I've also tried from different computers and with internal and external web cameras.
Also, the "attach file" function does not work, either. This would actually be preferable, but I've been working as of late with the web camera option as at least I get a prompt.

Different dates bug.
There is currently a bug where sometimes, depending on the time of day I send the message, the default for the subject with the date in it is the day behind the day that it's sent. The default date to send a year into the future for is still the same.
I assume this is because the date in the subject comes from is server time and the date to send to is based on client computer time as I live in Australia and this problem always seems to occur in the mornings.
Thanks for taking note of this bug.

let a user specify a time frame and frequency for random delivery of the letter.
An example. The user could specify: for this letter, send it to me [3] times sometime between [1] and [3] [months] from now.
I'd use this to repeatedly remind myself about some insight. The random nature of it perhaps opens the door to some synchronicity or serendipity.

allow users to send a letter from their favourite email client rather than from your website.
The user could email their letter to "me@futureme.org", from within gmail or Outlook. They would be able to attach anything they choose, and use any kind of formatting.
Perhaps the first line of the email could specify, in a certain format, the date of future delivery and the public visibility status.

Request a response from the writer of the original email
We should get to see not only the public letters but the responses! Email the writers at the same date as their email from FutureMe is delivered to them, and get them to submit a response to the public view. I need to know if those people achieved their dreams/ got over their fears/ married the cute guy etc
