[RFC] convert the script into modules #44

It would be pretty easy to make the script load other scripts. That way we could split it up, as I think it mixes up thread models a lot.

a main script loading the modules (you can comment out the lines)

general
stay anonymous
no html and images
...

best example is

time zone
dictionary
time settings
convert sender time to UTC

this does not make sense for many people, but instead would break workflows. Imagine Thunderbird in a company.

I'm rather in favor of keeping the template "close to" upstream, for maintainability purpose. Sorry if I seem boring about this, but the idea is to keep things simple as I have a pretty limited bandwidth (EDIT : and that I'm actually alone to keep this up to date).
