[MlMt] New message view: hide "sent from mailing list" bar
The new message view in the latest test releases is starting to look good. For those of us subscribed to hundreds of mailing lists ... could we please have a setting to hide the "sent from mailing list" bar with unsubscribe buttons? I also miss seeing plain text messages in a monospace font of my choice but I noticed in the release notes that that's not implemented yet. I'm sure it's only a matter of time. :) Philip -- Philip Paeps Senior Reality Engineer Alternative Enterprises ___ mailmate mailing list mailmate@lists.freron.com https://lists.freron.com/listinfo/mailmate

Glenn—thanks, I guess they're just a nice idea for now :) David—that's helpful, I'll start dragging the images 👍 On Thu, Aug 27, 2020 at 2:44 PM Glenn Parker wrote: > As far as I can tell, neither the “Download Image” or the > “Download Linked Image” popup menus that appears for externally > linked images do much of anything right now. > > Glenn P.

As far as I can tell, neither the “Download Image” or the “Download Linked Image” popup menus that appears for externally linked images do much of anything right now. Glenn P.

Right-clicking on an image from inside an email and selecting "Download image" seems to do nothing, I can't find these files downloaded anywhere.

Re: [MlMt] Moving from Apple Mail to Mailmate
Hi Charlie, I thought about this a bit more and in reality, the way I handled messages with Apple Mail isn’t functionally much different from the way it would work with MM... With Apple Mail, I save message to a variety of local mailboxes basically organized by topic. I did this in an effort to have searching and locating messages as efficient as possible. So, with MM, I would probably just use more smart mailboxes (I already use 10 or so) in lieu of the local mailboxes I currently have now. Then I could search within those smart mailboxes for desired content the exact same way I would search the local mailboxes. My main concern would be performance but based on what I’ve read from the community here, that probably isn't really that much of an issue… Aside from the above, I could use something like EagleFiler for all of the mail I used to have in the local folders which actually is probably a better solution anyway — after 8+ years of using Apple Mail search, I have concluded that it truly sucks... > On Aug 27, 2020, at 1:47 AM, Charlie Clark wrote: > > On 26 Aug 2020, at 22:51, Antonio Leding wrote: > >> I can see this as a desired option if one wants all of their mail on the >> local machine…but I have a different use-case… >> >> I presume many users do the same thing I do which is that some or most of >> their mail is on the server and then some is stored locally.

[MlMt] Lost the attachment check regular expression
Hi While looking through preferences I accidentally typed a character in the dialog box for the regular expression used in attachment checks. I immediately pressed escape but the damage was done and my regex now says “a”. Silly me. I can’t find anyway to restore the default regex. Can anyone help by either replying with the default or by saying how to restore default preferences? Thanks!

Re: [MlMt] Show images in new message view?
Thanks Benny. The security setting was what I was looking for. (I’ve used Mailmate for years now, and have never noticed this was there… oops!) Thanks as ever for an amazing mail client, and I’m happy to wait for the button to come when you’re ready! Cheers Simon -- Simon Kaplan +61 411 511 122 “Success is not final. Failure is not fatal.
