Another beginning question: where to best place Mailboxes?
Mailmate Help “encourages the use of Smart Mailboxes”. If Smart
Mailboxes are used rather than Standard, aren’t my (actual rather
than virtual) messages then left in my Inbox? If so, seems my Inbox
would get vast and unwieldy. In the past I’ve routed mail out of
the Inbox into regular Mailboxes partly to keep the Inbox
manageable…
I don't really want to discourage the use of IMAP mailboxes. I just
don't recommend using them for things for which smart mailboxes are
better. In particular when the Submailboxes feature can be used.
There is no best way to do things. It depends on your workflow and
your other email clients/devices. You just need to find what works
best for you and it's probably some combination of IMAP mailboxes and
smart mailboxes.
Looks like further Standard Mailboxes can only be placed inside
sources, and only Smart Mailboxes (beyond the standard issue of
Standard Mailboxes) at the top level of organization?
Smart mailboxes can also be placed in the SOURCES section.
Note that a smart mailbox based on a single IMAP mailbox behaves, more
or less, like a proxy for the IMAP mailbox.
Are there better ways to base a smart mailbox on a single IMAP mailbox
other than having the same routing rule?
I'm regularly considering a redesign of the mailboxes outline, but I
haven't yet decided on any specifics. I'll keep your comments in mind.
(Won't happen soon.)
The problem I have with all smart mailboxes is when I look at my inbox,
I can’t easily sort out what’s only in the inbox and what’s also
in a smart mailbox. That makes more work and less clarity for me. I want
the app to do that work. How do folks deal with this problem?
Also, junk sorting isn’t working. Spamsieve keeps un-enabling itself.
Problem with a trial version?
Thank you Benny,
Kearney
