Oh, I get that too, when I send out messages through my university online content management system (Blackboard, I believe). -- Sherman On 15 Feb 2019, at 21:45, John Cooper wrote: What's with the skulls that MailMate displays in the return addresses of some messages? ![image](https://www.dropbox.com/s/iwfzu880yxqp4io/skulls.png) I've viewed the raw messages to try to figure out what prompts this kind of display, but I only see an @ symbol.___ mailmate mailing list mailmate@lists.freron.com https://lists.freron.com/listinfo/mailmate ___ mailmate mailing list mailmate@lists.freron.com https://lists.freron.com/listinfo/mailmate

[MlMt] strange behavior when selecting multiple source accounts
Hi, since I can't access several of my email accounts when connected to my corporate VPN, I select the impacted source accounts, right-click (via a two-finger click of my MBP trackpad) to bring up the contextual menu, and select "Take Offline" or "Take Online" as appropriate. Often, after selecting the set of sources to take offline or online, the two-finger click to bring up the contextual menu acts as a normal left-click, changing the selection to only highlight the source my mouse pointer happens to be hovering over. This most often happens if I move the pointer after I select the set of sources but before I do the two-finger click. If I'm careful not to move my pointer, I almost never see this behavior. This only seems to happen when selecting multiple source accounts; I never see this problem anyplace else I select multiple items and invoke a contextual menu. Any thoughts? Thanks. -Eric ___ mailmate mailing list mailmate@lists.freron.com https://lists.freron.com/listinfo/mailmate
Re: [MlMt] Server (and mailing list) offline

This will affect the homepage, blog, manual pages, the mailing list, software update checks, bundle update checks, and possibly more :) I believe most things are up and running again now. Hopefully the mailing list also works. This is an implicit test :) The good news is that, afterwards, I should be able to fix the problem with bounces and automated unsubscribes affecting the list a few weeks ago. Automatic handling of bounces is now enabled again. I've resubscribed anyone who was temporarily unsubscribed due to the bouncing issue. If this is the first message you receive in a long time then note that there is an archive of everything posted [here](https://www.mail-archive.com/mailmate@lists.freron.com/). Sorry about the inconvenience. (The mailing list now uses so-called From munging when distributing emails which could result in DMARC issues for other subscribers.) On a related note, does anyone have experience with MailMan 3.x? (Running MailMan 2.1.26 now.) -- Benny https://freron.com/become_a_mailmate_patron/ ___ mailmate mailing list mailmate@lists.freron.com https://lists.freron.com/listinfo/mailmate
