Thanks.

While we're here, what exactly does Blacklist-ing an address do? I know it prevents autocomplete, but is that all it does?

Yes, that’s all it does. It could certainly have used a more specific name, such as “Obsolete-Or-Incorrect-Addresses”, but since the system lacks a complete user interface it’s hard to get too fussy about it.

I use auto-completion, but I really wish Mailmate would more strongly prioritize addresses in Apple Contacts over those gathered from my INBOX. I have a lot of “blacklisted” addresses that resulted from email addressed to me using mangled spellings and even incoherent names. I feel like Mailmate should be able to recognize the core email address in the Contacts and ignore all the bogus variations that people come up with.

It would also help to integrate directly with other address databases, e.g., Google Contacts, rather than relying exclusively on the Apple Contacts system. Mailmate is not the only email client I use (no Android version), and the Apple database is not a universally accessible system for me.
