Re: [MlMt] Request: t searches default to sent folder

2017-01-24 Thread Steven M. Bellovin
I know there's a menu item, but as a keyboard guy I just type 
command-option-control F to bring up a folder-specific search box.  If 
the current folder is the Sent folder, it defaults to "To/Cc/Bcc"; for 
anything else, it defaults to "From".  This works well, and I almost 
never use the global search box.

Does it make sense to have that be the default for such searches, or 
would others not find that to be useful?

Since I don't use the Sent folder, no, that would not be useful to me. 
But I can see why it might be for the majority who do.

It could be an option, to be sure. Most of the time I’m in smart 
folders designed to minimize what I see (like “Today”), so this is 
not what I would want.


I think Apple Mail.app switches to the sent-mail folder if you search 
for something in the “to” field and back to the inbox, if you search 
for “from”.


Personally I find that most of my searches are to find out what exactly 
I wrote to somebody, so they tend to be in the “t something” form.

Re: [MlMt] Trash or Deleted Messages?

Note that this
only works if MailMate is always an open application, but this is a
general issue with date-based rules.


Fastmail already has this feature. One can set the "permanently delete when 
older than" for every folder in the folder settings of their web interface. 
I use it to permanently delete Spams and Trash older than 30 days. On most 
mailinglists folders I set this to older than 365 days.


Such static rules should really run on server.
