A multiplication operator is always normal, but rarely self-adjoint or unitary

Let X be the space of all continuous complex valued functions on [0,1][0,1] with inner product ⟨f,g⟩=∫01f(t)g(t)‾ dt\langle f,g\rangle=\int_0^1f(t)\overline{g(t)}\,dt. Let T:X→XT:X\to X be defined by T(f)(t)=teitf(t)T(f)(t)=te^{it}f(t). Then:
