Hi MailMate users,
first, sorry about rarely replying to emails on the list (or off list
for some users). I dug a deep hole while working on various low level
parts of MailMate and I ended up with hundreds of things I had to get
working again before it was realistic to release an update of MailMate
that was actually useful to users. This also means that I've
essentially been the only using the in-development version of MailMate
for the past ~7 months and I'm a bit worried it's more buggy than I
think it is since it's hard to test every corner of MailMate
functionality.
So, I need some users willing to try out a cutting edge revision of
MailMate. Just assume that it's unstable and don't fetch it if you
don't have the time to deal with any major issues, e.g., requiring
re-synchronizing all of your email accounts. It hasn't happened to me,
but you never know.
There are no detailed release notes available, but changes affect most
of the non-visual parts of MailMate. This includes but is far from
limited to how MailMate fetches, parses, generates, caches, displays,
deletes, and saves messages.
I know some users watch the usual deployment folder on my server, but
I wanted to limit this update to users actually reading this message
and therefore the location is a bit different than usual. I've also
bumped the version number for this cutting edge release to 3.0 because
it requires macOS 11 (previous requirement was 10.12). I've also
bumped the revision number to r7000 since this makes it technically
possible for me to also release updates to the 2.x branch if needed.
Again, sorry about the lack of email responses in general. I'll see if
I can get through some of the backlog tonight and/or tomorrow.
Here's the link to the r7000+ archives folder on my server:
https://updates.mailmate-app.com/sub/archives/
Again, make sure you have the time needed to deal with any major
issues. Keep a copy around of your current revision of MailMate.
Use “Help > Send Feedback” to tell me about any issues you find.
FWIW, it's not crashing immediately on a Sequoia M4 MBP
