Description

Salut Julien,

Great app, thanks for the work.

Could it be possible to have an option for the dashboard widget, to show latest messages from a specific MM channel or MM team, instead of (or in addition to) @... mentions ?

Use case: our MM server has many teams, one of them being dedicated to the project we manage through NC; everyone writes to public channels but rarely mention specific people; it would be great if NC users could see this channel's history in their dashboard.

Thanks a lot,
Mathias
