+Web Send Message as Popup
+=========================
+
+In the email/notes threads below the form views, the link 'Send a
+message' unfold a text field. From there, a button allows to open the
+text field in a full featured email popup with the subject, templates,
+attachments and followers.
+
+This module changes the link 'Send a message' so it opens directly the
+full featured popup instead of the text field, avoiding an extra click
+if the popup is always wanted.
