[MlMt] Rules and when are they applied
Hey all, I'm in need of assistance. I never really had much need for rules so never explored them further. Today however, I found a wonderful use case for me and I want to use rules to do it, but for some odd reason it's not working as I expect. **Use Case:** Flag an email on mobile/web and have an always on mac with MM running. When MM sees a newly flagged email, it runs a bundle command to add the mail to a task list. From my testing, this isn't working. If I add the rule to the global inbox and trigger apply rules, nothing happens, but if I select the email (or even all emails in inbox) and press apply rules, it works. **Questions** 1. Where is the ideal place to add a rule like this? global Inbox or each account's inbox 2. Is it necessary that the message be selected for rules to be applied to it 3. If not, how often are rules run Thanks, Pedro___ mailmate mailing list mailmate@lists.freron.com https://lists.freron.com/listinfo/mailmate

Thanks Ralph! I selected “Current Mailbox” using the method you describe. And anyone can get to the Search field by pressing Tab a couple of times… Cheers, Dave -=-=-=- The Default Mailbox is a setting for the Main Search Bar you can click on. It’s also the Search Bar called by Opt-Cmd-F You can set its Default Mailbox by clicking on the drop down widget in the left portion of that bar.
