Curiously though, another one of the eight account I have configured in MailMate is a personal Gmail account and it does not seem to have this problem. Based on my experience, there are subtle differences between Google Apps and Gmail. I have no idea what they are (and I'm sure it's not documented), but I have users on both systems which means this is not a general issue. More specifically it seems that this happens at least once or twice per-minute, where the account mailboxes become “unavailable” for about 10-12 seconds, come back for about 20 seconds, and then repeat this cycle continuously. Ok, that does sound bad. Here is what you can do: * Open the Activity Viewer (⌥⌘0). * Wait for one round of this “busy loop”. * Use “Help ▸ Send Server Logs”. Then I'll review the logs. I suspect it's some kind of server error which triggers MailMate to regularly retry. I see a thread in the MailMate list archives from 18-Feb-2015 which mentions this behavior may be a known issue with Gmail for some users on some networks, There has been many server issues in the past. In some cases Gmail is to blame and in others MailMate is to blame, but surprisingly often there is not much to learn from past experience :-) but so far it seems to happen on every network I’ve tried - including my university networks. Unfortunately this was not one of the accounts I used when testing MailMate these last few weeks; has anyone else who has experienced this discovered any insight into the issue? Would log files be of any help in diagnosing the problem, or is there anything else I could do to help troubleshoot this?

Isn't that more an UI/UX issue than a spotlight issue. I hope that
spotlight will increase the speed to get search results, but am not
brave enough to try out the alpha yet. I also hope (you can treat that
as feature request ;-) that the search box will act like mail.app and
suggest keywords for terms (e.g From: when I type paf@f...) and that
searches begin as I type, which are all are features of spotlight I like
and don't make it useless IMHO.

[MlMt] Evaluation results
Hi there, I have been using Mailmate for three weeks now - with very mixed feelings. As a longtime Postbox user I've been pissed lately by the bad support of Postbox Inc and some painful bugs in the stability of Postbox - so I came to Mailmate. However Mailmate also has tons of minor and major issues. Ok, no software is bugfree. But the density of minor flaws in Mailmate (that I would not expect from a 1.9 version) is annoying. Some of my highlight bugs: - invalid counters for unread mails for *some* folders - "default columns" do not work as expect, reverting the default columns for a folder is not persisted properly - being unable to remove an imap folder containing message without prior removing all mails manually (major usability pain in the ass) - incomplete and half-baked implementation of the "mailboxes" tree...being unable to arrange mailboxes as needed using drag & drop - fragile rule engine...hard to debug why email rules work sometimes and sometimes not - usability issues with the signing and encryption UI where the signing/lock icons are set or enabled when it does not make sense (e.g. no key available for a recipient) Most of the issues have been reported as feedback or as bugreports. What is my point? Mailmate is not a bad application and I appreciate that the maintainer cares more about productivity and power-user features than implementing useless features that nobody needs. However Mailmate has a serious quality assurance problem. A lot of features are only half implemented and not stable or usable. What is the point? Mailmate costs 45 EURO compared to 15 EUR for Postbox compared to nothing for Mail.app. The conclusion is: all mail applications for Mac suck in their own special way - only the price differs. -aj signature.asc Description: OpenPGP digital signature ___ mailmate mailing list mailmate@lists.freron.com http://lists.freron.com/listinfo/mailmate
[MlMt] one account (of eight) constantly displaying mailboxes as "unavailable"
One of the eight accounts I have configured in MailMate is constantly displaying the mailbox sources as “unavailable” every 30 seconds or so. This account is my main university account, which is (unfortunately) no longer hosted by the university but through a “partnership” with Google to offer email and collaboration services through the Google Apps for Education program. Curiously though, another one of the eight account I have configured in MailMate is a personal Gmail account and it does not seem to have this problem.

Re: [MlMt] giving up - MailMate crash - won't synchronize
Hi Benny, I no longer have the offending files. Once I got them all imported (which did take nearly 3 weeks), I deleted the originals. They were .mbox files in a POP mail account on my personal mail server, not an outside service, and I was using Postbox. These files had been around for many years and were originally in Eudora. .mbox files do some checksums on the size of each message as well as having special lines that delimit the individual messages. As I corrected these files I found that some were missing the delimiting lines, some were missing bits of the message thus making the checksums come out wrong. In all cases, it was clear the files were old enough to have had some bit rot, and had been through at least one minor disk failure that likely removed parts of the file when disk blocks were lost. One message clearly had its header mixed inside its actual message. One was missing 8 bytes and messed up its checksum as a result. So, my best help for you is to have you get (or create) some .mbox files somehow and then mess them up in these sorts of ways and then try to import them and see what happens. I suspect that you might be able to get Mailmate to at least detect these kinds of corrupt files and react a bit better than it does now (i.e. give an error message rather than hang indefinitely).

The “paste as quoted” command in Mailsmith was “option+command+v” and something I use often when trying to summarize/reformat threaded discussions when new people are added to the discussion. Is there any way to re-wrap quoted or body text, preferably with a user-defined column width and indentation options? No, and there shouldn't be (well, except perhaps for an unwrapping function). Wrapping lines should be taken care of by the receiving email client based on the preferences of the recipient. The sending email client should use “format=flowed” to avoid hard-wrapping lines and this is what MailMate does. Any email clients not understanding “format=flowed” (shame on them) are going to see it as hard-wrapped lines (72 chars). Understood, thank you. The round-trip to BBEdit should solve this need for occasional reformatting. Is there a menu item, or more specifically a key shortcut, for copying messages to a mailbox - similar to the “Move to mailbox…” function? No, but you can hold down ⌥ when hitting enter (using “Move to Mailbox...”) to create a copy instead. Thanks. This is something I do infrequently, but that will be very helpful for when a copy to another account mailbox is needed. Regarding replies, is there reply setting to place the quoted text at the top (with the insertion point after), for inline (or bottom-posting) replies? Default behavior is defined in the Signatures preferences pane, but MailMate also learns your habits if you use the “Signature” menu in the Composer. This way your preferred style can depend on the recipient. You can reset what MailMate has learned by clicking “Reset Usage History” in the Signatures preferences pane. Interesting, this might explain why it seems to work one way sometimes and a different way other times. I’ll look into that..
