As far as I can tell, MailMate should not configured to play any

that seemed relevant was Preference > Counters > Sound. Am I missing
correct place to turn this off somewhere?


Not really. You are just the victim of bad user interface design.

MailMate allows you to configure 4 counters, one for each corner of 
the dock icon. This is what is illustrated by the four dots in the 
left side of the Counters preferences pane. You simply need to find 
the counter with the ?Glass? sound and then change it to ?None?.


Originally, the Counters interface was a quick temporary solution. I 
still plan to change how this works, but it is not yet a high 
priority. I'll see if I can change the wording used below the dots to 
be less ambiguous.


Ah, I see how it works now.  I had assumed the settings in the right 
side

of that preferences panel were independent of the positioning settings
on the left side.  I see now that they are per position setting.  I've
found the elusive "glass" notification and disabled it.


Wow, I just realized how completely I was misunderstanding this 
preference. Thanks for this (very old) thread!


Note that MailMate also has a slot in the System pref pane 
“Notifications”, which seems to be ignored. That’s where I first 
went to turn the sound off.

It's non-trivial (and a bit hardcoded), but the Unread mailbox shows 
how it can be done:


${#source.path.noinbox} — ${#source.#name}


The first part is the mailbox name, but without INBOX when it's the 
kind of IMAP account in which all mailboxes are children of the INBOX. 
The latter is the name of the account as seen in the IMAP account 
editor.


Perfect. I just used the last bit, since I’m already only looking at 
inboxes.


Is there a list of things that work with a leading #? And I think this 
is a good thing to add to the docs, which I might get to sometime soon 
on github. :-)

Should we send feedback about 2.0BETA directly to this mailing list? 
or is there a different preferred channel?


Unless it's something of general interest then send it directly to me. 
(I would suspect that means most of the feedback should go directly to 
me.)
