(1) Can I use a rule to add a label/color to a message (Eudora lets
you assign any of the 7 standard Finder labels or any of 7 custom
labels to a message, and makes either the entire row in the table of
contents or just one column show in the color of that label).
MailMate (still) does not map tags (or flags) to Finder tags if that's
what you are asking for. MailMate does support the colored flags seen in
Apple Mail, but it's (still) cumbersome to actually use this in
filters/actions. This is because a colored flag is actually a set of
IMAP keywords as illustrated by the default key bindings for setting
flag colors:
"F" = {
"0" = ( "removeTag:", "\\Flagged", "removeTag:", "$MailFlagBit0",
"removeTag:", "$MailFlagBit1", "removeTag:", "$MailFlagBit2" );
"1" = ( "setTag:", "\\Flagged", "removeTag:", "$MailFlagBit0",
"removeTag:", "$MailFlagBit1", "removeTag:", "$MailFlagBit2" );
"2" = ( "setTag:", "\\Flagged", "setTag:", "$MailFlagBit0",
"removeTag:", "$MailFlagBit1", "removeTag:", "$MailFlagBit2" );
"3" = ( "setTag:", "\\Flagged", "removeTag:", "$MailFlagBit0",
"setTag:", "$MailFlagBit1", "removeTag:", "$MailFlagBit2" );
"4" = ( "setTag:", "\\Flagged", "setTag:", "$MailFlagBit0",
"setTag:", "$MailFlagBit1", "removeTag:", "$MailFlagBit2" );
"5" = ( "setTag:", "\\Flagged", "removeTag:", "$MailFlagBit0",
"removeTag:", "$MailFlagBit1", "setTag:", "$MailFlagBit2" );
"6" = ( "setTag:", "\\Flagged", "setTag:", "$MailFlagBit0",
"removeTag:", "$MailFlagBit1", "setTag:", "$MailFlagBit2" );
"7" = ( "setTag:", "\\Flagged", "removeTag:", "$MailFlagBit0",
"setTag:", "$MailFlagBit1", "setTag:", "$MailFlagBit2" );
};
(2) Can rules be global, applicable to all mailboxes, or can rules be
inherited?
Rules can be configured for any mailbox, both IMAP and smart mailboxes.
In other words, they can apply to any set of messages for which you can
create a smart mailbox. There's no inheritance involved with regard to
rules.
(3) When replying, is there good support for in-line replying (where
you alternate between quoted content and your reply), and does
MailMate support Format=Flowed (display and generation)?
Yes, I use MailMate to do inline replies myself. The `format=flowed`
support should be excellent. If you find a bug then it'll be very high
on my list to fix it.
