A. Is it expected all the buttons are actually just buttons with text
on them instead of a more compact icon ?
Yes. It's not a design decision (although some users prefer it). It's a
financial issue and my own lack of graphics talent.
B. Is there a way to have space bar or just "next unread" (in postbox
binding that is what 'n' does) go to the next folder with unread ?
For now it stays inside the same folder and just "beeps" at me and I
have to go manually click on the next folder. Would
be awesome if this manual step could be avoided.
No, there is no way to do that currently. The best you can do is switch
mailbox using ⌘T or [bind a
key](http://manual.mailmate-app.com/custom_key_bindings) to
[`selectNextMailbox:`](http://manual.mailmate-app.com/key_binding_selectors).
C. Is there any documentation for the various expressions that can be
used in things like mailbox name format ?
i.e. ${#source.path.noinbox} ? I can see some of these in the dialog
that comes up if I choose "Other..." for 'sub mailbox for each unique
value' but
these has no description thus leaving me a bit guessing at times.
No. The `${#source.path.noinbox}` is a bit of a special case (it's a
hack). You can use the Statistics layout (View ▸ Layout) to play with
values. The tricky part is when to add a prefixed `#` in a format
string. This is needed for virtual headers (not real email headers). In
some cases two `#` are needed. These are for virtual headers which are
never saved to disk. These are implementation details which have leaked
into a few features in MailMate, but they are not documented.
Note that format strings are (badly) documented
[here](http://manual.mailmate-app.com/format_string_syntax). They are
actually quite flexible if you know how to use regular expressions.
For the undocumented query language, a useful “hack” is to look in
the following file after creating a smart mailbox:
~/Library/Application Support/MailMate/Mailboxes.plist
D. Is there a way to have submailboxes show up as a tree instead of
just a flat list of folders ?
No.
"Submailbox for the messages of each account" does it for the first
level, but all other levels are not visible.
I'm not sure I really understand what you are trying to do. An example?
E. Is there a way to unsubscribe to certain folders ?
Background: I have all my emails setup to go to a folder named
'\_inbox' which I then use imapfilter to do bulk sorting of my
incoming email into
folders. This means that it is rather pointless for mail mate to
monitor this '\_inbox' folder for mails and just disturbs my workflow
since sometimes
mail mate pickup the unread in this folder before imapfilter managed
to sort it ..but before I get to click on it imapfilter moves it.
Thus would be great if I could unsubscribe from this specific folder,
or at least hide it.
Select “File ▸ Edit IMAP Account ▸ ...” and then “Edit
Subscriptions”. You can do it locally only or tell the server that the
mailbox is unsubscribed (not all email clients respect that though).
I think that is it for now - thanks for a great product! I'm
definitely going to buy it if my testing continues to go well the next
couple of days!
I can see you didn't need that much time. Thanks for the support!
