> Secondly should we have a mute/unmute button on the main message view - currently messages can only be unmuted from the index page and there's no way to mute a message at all if the user is not muted when it is received.

I understand your point. I imagine though that it would add unnecessary noise to the UI for many users when we add a `Mute` or `Move to muted Messages`-button next to each `Inbox`-message:

In my understanding only a fraction of users – lets say 5% for the sake of my argument – will have to use the `UserMute`-Feature on rare occasions.

Adding the `Mute`-action to all Inbox-messages for all users makes the `UserMute`-Feature a bit too prominent since 95% of the users never have to bother with the Feature.

What do you think? @tomhughes
