May I also suggest making the ordering of actions more clear. At the moment the actions are in seemingly random order; they're not sorted, but they don't seem grouped either. Sorting or adding separators could make it nicer.
changing component to "Mailer" to get rid of the UI component, also reassigning as discussed with nags... adding UI keyword.
Apologies for any spam... cc'ing usability-maint on all Evolution usability bugs. Filter on EVO-USABILITY-SPAM to ignore.
I can't comment on the other suggestions, but #6 is a Bad Idea(tm). see bug #246227 for a rebuttal There was also a rebuttal by NotZed somewhere saying the same thing - perhaps on the patches list
adding string keyword - this obviously involves string changes
Dialog slightly changed after the years, though most things are still there. They seem to me fine, somehow. Maybe not using capitals in condition/action names, but otherwise I would keep this as is. Maybe keep even the capitals, as it emphasizes to what the condition/action belongs, like in "Assign Color" "Assign Score". Any objection for a WontFix?
Closing as WONTFIX as per last comment.
