Hey,

Trying to get my default columns to be the same across all mailboxes.

I've setup defaults and it works in most mailboxes but in some they just seem to revert to the old default list.

Is there a way to simply just reset all defaults to my preferred column list ?

while on airplane I tried searching for "revert to different column" in mailmate archives and I actually found a bunch of reports of my exact issue.

Interesting enough the solution (or rather workaround) I found in an 11 month old mail.

SOLUTION: Nothing subtle. I spent a few hours trying to work out what precisely was wrong and find a fix, but nothing worked. My final act of desperation, accepting that I would at a minimum lose all per-mailbox column settings, was this:

 defaults delete com.freron.MailMate MmMailboxRelatedStates

And that did the trick. Yes, all my per-mailbox column settings were gone, but whatever was causing trouble in that dictionary of settings structures for 261 mailboxes also went away. Problem solved. As I read the labels inside those structures, there seems to be nothing other than display tweaks lost in whacking the whole thing, and doing so restored my ability to make settings stick.

I ran that defaults delete and now my columns behave as expected and revert to default now uses my defaults, not mailmate default defaults.

I can see 2 people evaluating mailmate also reporting this as a bug that caused them to stay away.

So maybe worth looking into figuring out how/why MmMailboxRelatedStates fixes this ? :)
