Hi all,

New MailMate user, bought the license, drank most of the kool-aid. ;) Being a former Pine, Thunderbird, Mail.app user, there are many parts of MailMate that I really do like (native OpenPGP support, display font customization, keyboard shortcuts). But there have been some drawbacks - if they have already been addressed in the list archives, then point me there and I'll read up. (too bad mailman doesn't have integrated search capabilities)

My setup is to two IMAP servers, one for work (Zimbra 8.x), one for personal (Dovecot 1.x) where sent mail is relayed separately (work via Zimbra, personal via my personal server). Note that I already know of the one Zimbra related issue i/r/t folders that is already in the bugs queue (and it's more annoying than anything).

But a couple of annoyances….

Per account preferences - since I have to keep work mail separate from my personal mail, having the ability to set per-account preferences like autoBCC. I know in the hidden preferences pane you can set it to auto-BCC but it's one address overall (I hope I am mistaken) I have been resorting to trying to put it in manually with every message which is spotty at best.

Use the same font (and size) for printing as display - I am a curmudgeon - I like all my plain text email to use a monospace font (in this case Courier Prime 12pt). However when I print out a email, it's using Lucid Grande (the old default) and the font size is like 16pt. :( Any way to change that? If it's HTML mail then use whatever fonts it wants, but for text emails it should honor the font settings for display which has been my experience with most other MUA's.

Threading - $work uses RequestTracker to handle trouble tickets, and RT does keep the Reference: header populated, but every message that I get from that system comes across as a new thread in MailMate (even though the Subject and Reference headers indicate that it's part of a larger thread.) Happy to pass along examples if need be (and I can get them sanitized).

Interested to hear any workarounds for any of these issues. ;)

Best Wishes - Peter
