I would like to make a smart mailbox in MailMate that contains all of the mails from the BBEdit-Talk Google Discussion-Group.

All of the mails in this group have in the To-field this email-address „[email protected]“, so I have made a smart mailbox with the condition showed in the attachment.

However the mailbox doesn’t seem to work: I see only a single email in this mailbox but I have a couple more in my Inbox.

What have I done wrong?

You already got some advice,

Yes, clear and helpful - thanks again! The mailing list is becoming a strong argument for MailMate too :-)


but just to answer this question: You should not use `"<...>"` since the less/greater than symbols are not necessarily part of the To header.

Oh, I didn’t see this!
I’ve just copied an email-address from the BBEdit-Talk-Googlegroup and probably it was copied in this form.


Also, it is always better to use the “is” comparison method instead of “contains” when possible (and it's most often possible).

That was how I had first made the rule, but it listed only one email so I’ve begun to make the condition less strict.


In this case, the best condition would probably be:

        To ▸ Address [is] “[email protected]

Understood!


Let me know if that does not work.

It work well now, thanks!
