Submitted by: Your Name Here

The following required functionality is complete:
- User can sign up by providing their email, password, and name.
- User can login using an email and password.
- After logging in, the user is taken to an INBOX page that has a list of incoming messages, sorted in descending chronological order (newest messages at top)
- Provide a fake "new message" link and a "sent messages" link BUT don't have to make them work yet.
- Unread messages should be bold or something similar in the list of messages.
- Implement "Users" link to take the user to a page that lists all users. Next to/under each user, provide a link to "Add As Friend" to add the user to your list of friends.
- Implement "New Message" page. The recipient field should be a dropdown, where the options are names from the user's friends.
- Implement "Sent Messages" page. It lists messages you have sent. Each message should display at what time it was read by the recipient, or "unread".
- User can read a message's content only once. Once the message has been read, the user will see a page indicating the message has already been read.
- User can only read messages where they are the recipient.
The following optional functionality is complete:
- User can attach an image.
- User can have multiple recipients on one message.
- User can log in with Facebook.
- User can also log in with GitHub.
- User A can "block" User B. If User A blocks User B, they will not see messages from User B. User B will not know they have been blocked.
- User can remove friends from their friends list.
- User can unblock friends from their block list.
- Generate more than 100 messages for a user and only display 20 messages at first. Implement Infinite Scroll so that the user can keep scrolling down for more messages. Hint: you can use the kaminari gem and jquery-infinite-pages gem.
- User gets an email when they receive a message, with a link to view the message.
- User can send a message to the email address of a non-registered user. The recipient will receive an email with a link to sign up for the service, and after creating an account, will be able to view the sent message.
The following additional features are implemented:
