[MlMt] smart mailbox not updated

2019-02-15 Thread chairephon
To get an overview of received mails within a day I use a smart mailbox 
with that condition. MailMate runs all the time hidden. The smart 
mailbox doesn’t updated. I have to close and open MailMate again to 
update the smart mailbox.

I suggest another graphic, something less... creepy.

I've viewed the raw messages to try to figure out what prompts this 
kind of display, but I only see an @ symbol.


This is something that MailMate does to help users detect @ symbols in 
the name part of an address header, which is one simple pattern of email 
spoofing. This blog post by Benny explains more:

Quoting from the post:

In the most recent test release of MailMate I’ve added the following 
improvement: Whenever the name part of an address header contains a @ 
then it’s replaced with a skull (). That should at least make 
the user aware of simple attempts to spoof an address header.

Oh, I get that too, when I send out messages through my university 
online content management system (Blackboard, I believe).

I've viewed the raw messages to try to figure out what prompts this

[MlMt] strange behavior when selecting multiple source accounts

2019-02-15 Thread Eric Sharakan
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

Re: [MlMt] Server (and mailing list) offline

I'm spending the next (hopefully few) hours updating my server. This

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.)
