Re: [MlMt] I need a email provider with: catchall receiving - wildcard sending
Hi, >> I’m now looking for an email provider that supports both of these functions. >> Any recommendations would be greatly appreciated. > > Fastmail seems to support that: > Can 100% confirm. I use it regularly/daily. Both for inbound and outbound mail. In addition, you can set up "Masked Email" addresses in FastMail that can be used to send via MailMate. So as well as *@yourdomain.tld for inbound/outbound, you can make use of the automatically generated email addresses from FM to get something like "abandon.cloud...@fastmail.com" (or a few other domains they own). MailMate has no issues with either, and tends to do the right thing automatically when replying to messages to one of either of these type of addresses (which you can always change at sending time).

For what it is worth, I've had this type of issue for quite a while with MailMate. "Something" in the original text makes MM think that the content is some sort of a binary object and the only way to "paste" is to make it an image, as you have seen. For a year or two I've had to paste text into something like Sublime Text first, then re copy it to the clipboard before pasting it into MailMate. I reported it a while back, and Benny was the one who pointed out that whatever was in the original document/copy action was potentially confusing the process.

[MlMt] Smart Mailbox for Attachment type/sub-type?
Hi, I may be missing something obvious here - I'm trying to create a Smart Mailbox which automatically creates within it sub-folders created for Mime Subtypes. I've created the Smart Mailbox which looks at a specific IMAP folder or folders, and has a Condition of Attachment Count more than or equal to 1. From there, I went to the next panel and selected the option of: Submailbox for each unique value of [ Dropdown Menu ] And from the Dropdown tried Content-Type -> Subtype, but, this only seems to match the first MIME type in a message, leaving sub-mailboxes for "Mixed", "Other", "Signed", "Related" (even though I've selected the All Body Parts option). What I was hoping for was a series of Smart Mailboxes which gave me access to all messages which had attachments which were PDF as one sub-mailbox, PNG for another, and so on and so forth. Atch | |--PNG |--PDF |--ICS Etc. I can manually create this by making a lot of individual Smart Mailbox rules and setting a Condition that matches the option of "All Body Parts" and then a specific condition to match each sub-type that I may want a folder for, but, that's a bit time consuming and I was hoping for the magic of Smart. Am I missing something, or is the manual route the only option for now? Thanks, Scott ___ mailmate mailing list Unsubscribe: https://lists.freron.com/listinfo/mailmate
Re: [MlMt] tags and email client
Hi, > My understanding, as a non expert in mail clients’ subtleties, is that it is > impossible to transfer tags (or smart mailboxes based on tags) from Mailmate > to another client (except for a few IMAP keywords). Is it absolutely > impossible, or is there a workaround? In my experience, the issue isn't so much "transferring" from MailMate to another MUA, it's that other MUAs don't necessarily do tags the "right" way (IMAP keywords or flags) as MailMate does (with controversial definitions of what is Right and Wrong). In other words, MailMate tells IMAP servers the right thing, and I've had no issues using: * Mutt - CLI email with IMAP features * Roundcube - Webmail UI that talks IMAP To both work fine with "Tags" from MailMate. In the latter case, I did have to install a Plugin from the RoundCube community, but, once I did, it worked as I needed. Pragmatically, how different email clients deal with tagging of messages seems all over the place. Most rely upon a private index/database kept on a local device, with only minimal server-side compatibility. There was a pretty advanced looking Mail.app plugin for doing tags and I tried to convince them they should use IMAP to store tag state, to make it work between devices better, but, nope, they weren't interested (MailTags from SmallCubed) at the time. There have been attempts over the years to get email applications like Thunderbird to support IMAP keywords, but, last I checked (a year or so), that did not work as one would hope. Personally, I am VERY happy with how MailMate does it, but, from time to time I have to use other email applications for various reasons, and I sorely wish that they supported server-side IMAP keywords/flags the way MM does.

Re: [MlMt] How to create a Mailbox Rule which extracts attachments
Hi, > No, I haven’t found a solution yet. > > Maybe it is possible to develop a bundle which extracts attachments to > folders? > > But good to know I’m not alone here with this need…. I have a similar need, and I almost found a solution...using Keyboard Maestro. I don't want to do it all the time for every message that arrives in a specific mailbox, so, not quite the same use as you and Stefan. Instead, I have a selection of messages that I want to extract the attachments from to a specific folder. I created a Keyboard Maestro macro to select all of the messages in that mailbox, and then select the Message -> Save Attachments shortcut in MailMate. Unfortunately, this is where things start behaving unpredictably. In the panel that appears, if you type a path (there is no text input area, but if you just start typing as if you're typing a path/directory), then the panel for saving the attachments will change to that directory. That's a macOS feature, not MailMate. But however Keyboard Maestro types text doesn't always play nicely with this process (I've tried all of the ways KM has). I suspect that if I had the KM Macro run some AppleScript that sent text more like a person typing, it may work, but, I've not tested this. Not quite the fully automated way that you want to do things, but, I'm nearly there with this approach.

So far (1 hour > of use): > * No issues crashing (cause of concern to others, but I never experienced in > Ventura or Sonoma OS). I should probably have elaborated as to what's triggering the crashes for me -- Benny and I have been talking about it for a bit, and I think he's well on the way to solving it, but, just in case someone else reads this and can benefit, here's what I do that may be different enough to trigger issues. I have several IMAP accounts that for Synchronisation Schedule are set to "Connected" (but, I've also set this to 30 minutes to try to make the crashing less frequent, kinda-sorta worked, but, not always). I'm running my own IMAP server (Dovecot), and I use Sieve and dozens of Sieve rules quite heavily. This means that my incoming email is filtered into loads of mailboxes automatically. Tags (IMAP keywords/flags) are also something I make significant use of. Within MailMate, I have a number of Smart Mailboxes, such as ones to show me unread messages in mailboxes where Sieve has sorted mail, and a few other special conditions (like Smart Mailboxes for unread messages with a certain text/body of email match), and of course, Smart Mailboxes for certain Tags. The (frustratingly repeatable) crashes for me always occur when I'm viewing a mailbox which is the target for these Sieve rules. Crashes would typically take place when the message view was updated (from my point of view, such as when a Synchronise takes place, which would update the view list), or, when I deleted a message (which would move it to the Trash and update the view of the folder, or a few other similar conditions, such as sending a reply to a message in one of the folders in question. From memory, I don't think crashes ever took place when I was simply using my INBOX, or any folder which was not receiving Sieve controlled background updates. I'm happy to report that Version 1.14 (5975) has been extremely stable so far, with only one crash (again, whilst a Sieve updated folder was being shown) in the last day. Ahh. For most people I don't think the crashes would have taken place, and poor Benny was having a devil of a time reproducing it. Thankfully, it was very reproducible here, so, I think that's why 5975 seems so much happier. Fingers crossed!

[MlMt] Pasting text results in image - how to fix?
Hello, For a while now (over a year, possibly more), I've found that when I paste text into a compose window on MailMate, instead of just getting the text, it is turned into a Pasted Image (PNG, I think). This is somewhat infuriating, as I end up taking the same text from the Clipboard, pasting it into Sublime Text, select-all, copy, and THEN pasting it into MailMate. Is it just me? Is there a workaround? The source text is often from various web-apps I use for work, but, no other application besides MailMate seems to have an issue with it. I can take the same Clipboard and paste into a Terminal session, vim, any text editor, DevonThink, doesn't matter...always works. But MailMate will almost always turn pasted text into an image. I'm guessing there's extraneous information in the copied data which is making MailMate assume I'm trying to paste binary content, perhaps. Would be great if someone knows a way around this!

[MlMt] Is there a way to display all server-side Tags/Keywords?

[MlMt] Smart Folder bug.
Hi, This morning, using Version 1.14 (5757) on macOS Big Sur, I ran into a repeatable bug (well, I feel it is a bug) involving the use of Smart Folders. Goal: To create a Smart Folder that only has Flagged items in it. Steps I took: 1) Clicked on All Messages in the folder pane 2) Right clicked to bring up the contextual menu 3) Selected New Smart Mailbox I then created a Smart Mailbox which applied to All Messages, but, as a Condition, only would show Messages that are Flagged (any colour). Once the Untitled Smart Mailbox (would be great if there was a feature that let you name the Smart Mailbox as you're editing the parameters for it...) was created, things went amiss. The primary symptom that I noticed was that all of my sub-folders for another Smart Mailbox I have (Unread) vanished. Long story short, what I realised happened was that the NEW Smart Folder had the Conditions applied to *All Messages* as well as to the Smart Mailbox itself. So, the rules applied to the "parent" of where I created the Smart Mailbox, not just the Smart Mailbox. This meant that all of my other Smart Mailboxes, which were based off of "All Messages" were only showing content if they passed the Conditions that were (incorrectly, I feel) applied to All Messages. Further, when I tried to Edit the All Messages rules/conditions, ticking the box to remove the condition, or the rule itself for All Messages, caused swirling candy (beachball). I had to force quit. The only way to get MailMate working again was to manually edit Mailboxes.plist and remove the filter. This is what the Mailboxes.plist had at the top: { deltaMailboxes = ( { filter = "#flags.flag = '\\Flagged'"; previousUUID = ""; uuid = "ALL_MESSAGES"; }, { previousUUID = ""; uuid = "ALL_BODY_PARTS"; }, ... So, I removed the filter and restarted MailMate and all was fine. Unfortunately, I'm now not sure how to create a Smart Mailbox -- any attempt to do so is modifying the rules for the "parent" folder to contain the rules for the Smart Mailbox. I'm sure I'll sort out a workaround, but, thought I'd share. Regards, Scott ___ mailmate mailing list mailmate@lists.freron.com https://lists.freron.com/listinfo/mailmate
[MlMt] Can't disable "Organise by Thread".
Hi, One massive performance drag on MailMate that I've noticed is that if "Organise by Thread" is enabled that searching for messages is painfully slow -- beachball and 20-30 seconds or more before any results come back. I have over 500K messages, but, very fast RAID SSD and more than enough RAM (240G). The issue is no doubt the sheer message quantity that MailMate tries to parse and find messages that are in the same thread. So, for the last few years I've ensured that View -> Organise by Thread was disabled. However, with version Version 1.14 (5755) (Big Sur), the "All Messages" Mailbox, which is the default for searching, ALWAYS has message threading enforced, even though the menu toggle is disabled. Is this a bug, or does someone have a workaround? Feels like a bug... Thanks, Scott ___ mailmate mailing list mailmate@lists.freron.com https://lists.freron.com/listinfo/mailmate
Re: [MlMt] Big Sur and 2.0 branch?
Hi all, b) Will I be able to install the latest beta from the 1.x branch without problems with configurations and databases? Yes. I also recommend using the latest test release on Big Sur: Hold down ⌥ when clicking “Check Now” in the Software Update preferences pane. I did this, but, am now regretting it -- but hopefully only temporarily. I had a "Dark Mode" Custom CSS installed, which was always a bit of a hack, I know, but, it saved me from going blind due to the solid white backgrounds that are the default for HTML messages it seems. Mail.app respects dark mode and even HTML messages are kept the background colour (dark), which is quite useful. Is there a way in the latest Big Sur recommended version (Version 1.14 (5754)) to get this to work again? Ideally, I don't want any HTML to be shown unless I specifically ask for that MIME part to be displayed, but, that doesn't seem to work any longer. The HTML rendering is quite slow and choppy and the first time a message is displayed there's a bright flash -- even for non HTML messages. That doesn't happen if I move to another message and move back, thankfully, but, it's making going through mail a bit of a stroboscopic experience.

Hi, I wanted to do some analysis / graphing of some of the data that MailMate generates, and was hoping there was some way to customise the format of the "Create Mail" output when you're in the Statistics Layout. The issue I have now is that most spreadsheet apps will interpret "(INT)" as a negative value, and whilst I can manually tell the spreadsheet later that it's really positive, or, I can just use Find/Replace to get rid of the () from within MailMate, it's a hassle and slows down the process a bit.

Re: [MlMt] ProtonMail or other IMAP server?
Hi Kim, Tried to onboard with MailMate a couple of years but couldn’t understand how to do it. I’m trying again. Is ProtonMail good to use with MM as an IMAP server or are there other good alternatives? Good meaning not too costly and a pleasant and responsive service team. One potential issue with ProtonMail is that, from what I have read on their support site, they do not support IMAP tags/keywords/labels the way that some other IMAP services can. To use IMAP with them, you have to use their "Bridge" software, which may cause other issues. See: https://protonmail.com/support/knowledge-base/labels-in-the-bridge/ I haven't actually tried this on my ProtonMail accounts, as I haven't enabled the IMAP Bridge with those accounts. As someone who makes extremely heavy use of IMAP tags/labels in MailMate, I need to make sure that whatever I use as an IMAP server fully supports my specific use-cases. There are also potential issues with latency, depending upon where you are in the world. ProtonMail is in Switzerland, after all. From Australia, that gets a bit painful sometimes, for all sorts of reasons. Fastmail is a great alternative, and whilst it certainly doesn't have anywhere close to the security of ProtonMail, it offers a lot of great features and works fantastic with MailMate.

Re: [MlMt] Fastmail labels
Hi, Fastmail introduces support for labels ([link][1]). It appears that labels are supported by the new protocol they worked on, [JMap][2]. Otherwise over IMAP I think that labels are exposed as regular folders, just like email. I wonder if something can be done in Mailmate, if not for then JMap, then at least the ability to map “Tags” to folders, just like we can for Gmail labels. When I tried it yesterday, it didn’t seem to work, the mechanism seems to be specific to Gmail. Mildly off-topic, but, I did submit a support request for the Fastmail label "beta" that they make *their* protocol support IMAP tags/labels. Their back-end IMAP environment already correctly supports IMAP tags, and there may be others who would prefer to see their "labels" inherit (optionally) the already-existing tags that customers may have created. It would save a lot of work and add some great functionality to their UI/front-end, I feel. They shrugged a bit at my request, but, perhaps if others ask for it, they'll consider it. (Which isn't to say I wouldn't like to see JMAP get a bit of traction and supported by other clients, but, that hasn't quite happened yet. Probably a bit of chicken/egg going on.)

[MlMt] Relaxing the definition of a "correspondent" to deal with certain mailing lists.
Hi, I've recently been making increased use of the View -> Layout -> Correspondence way of viewing mail in MailMate as the extra panel provides some great context as to previous conversations with the same person/email address. However, like no doubt many of you, I'm a member of many mailing lists, as well as ticketing systems, which try to regularise email addresses for all sent mail to be from the mailing list itself (usually to avoid things like SPF/DMARC/DKIM/etc blocks). This means that MailMate does its skull-insertion to highlight that the email address appears potentially inconsistent. For example: From: "usern...@hotmail.com" And on MailMate, the first @ is the skull. The problem is that this also seems to break the Correspondence view. Either I get no results, or, I get a plethora of results for email-l...@company.net, or, weirdly, something in between. What I don't get is what I get in this view when the email is merely: From: "Jayne Q. Rhubarb" What I would like is for MailMate to act a bit more like Mail.app in this regard? It seems to be able to recognise "conversations" based upon the combination of the "friendly name" and the <> proper address. Is there a way to do this in MailMate? Some way to see the whole From header as the thing to base a correspondent's identity on? Or is there another solution I've not thought of here (that doesn't require me changing every mailing list and ticketing system on the planet to suit my needs)?

Re: [MlMt] VPN conflicts
Hi Peter, On 24 September 2019, at 0427, Peter Borsella wrote: Hello, Shoshanna, I’ve gone ahead and submitted the whitelisting requests to PIA, but while waiting for that I also ran a quick experiment of simply changing the VPN server, and voila, my email went out! Thanks again. More reinforcement is needed, but that’s in progress. Whilst we're slightly veering off course from MailMate, I will chime in here as I went through a similar headache and it might be useful for those trawling the archives in the future to have something else to check. From what you've reported, Peter, my sense is that you MAY have encountered the same issue I did with PIA, and is part of why I ceased using them and will not use them again in the future. PIA does not route all of your packets via the same path. The destination port plays a part in the routing decisions that PIA makes for which exit-node to send your VPN'd packets through. What this means in very simple terms is that even if you're connected to a PIA endpoint in, say, Ontario, Canada, not all of your network traffic will *actually* go through PIA's Ontario locations. Depending on the destination *port* of the activity you are generating, you may find that PIA will route your traffic via Europe or some other unexpected destination. Many of the most popular ports, such as 80 and 443 for web traffic will definitely go via the advertised endpoint, but, other ports, including those which may be associated with SMTP and IMAP (such as for email), or anything running on "non standard" ports, may not be. I had a very long, and very frustrating, back and forth discussion with PIA about this, but, this is a feature of their platform. From what I gathered, it's also somewhat dependent upon the VPN endpoint you may select...in other words, not all endpoints may do this destination-port based re-routing of your packets. Therefore, your disconnecting and reconnecting to another VPN server could well fit in with the above. It was actually using MailMate which helped me figure this out about PIA...whilst trying to connect to some private mail servers, and running into connectivity and authentication woes, I noticed that the IP address of the inbound connection was NOT the IP address of my VPN connection. If you have your own Internet accessible server, this is pretty trivial to test yourself - I just ran a tcpdump on my destination server, and from my PIA VPN'd machine, ran a series of nmap sessions, for all ports, 1-65535, TCP and UDP. The results were shocking (horrifying for me), with loads of traffic being routed via AS43350 (NForce, Netherlands) even though my chosen VPN endpoint was on the other side of the world - but, again, it wasn't all ports, but certainly a huge number of them. Anyway, reading your symptoms made me recall this experience with PIA. Glad you have a working solution and your email is flowing!

Re: [MlMt] command-click
Hi, I just upgraded to MM version 1.12.5 (5635). Since then the command-click on a link switches to the browser window right away, that is no longer opens the link in the background. In other words, there is no difference between click and command-click Can anyone confirm that? I can confirm that the behaviour has definitely changed... On Mojave as well - but in my case, it works for a single message, but, if I have shift-selected two or three messages, and am trying to command click on links within those messages, it no longer works. I actually sent Benny a note about this changed behaviour in the latest betas/release versions just a couple of days ago as well. It's definitely changed in recent builds; but I was on holiday and can't pin down exactly which update caused the change of behaviour...

[MlMt] One-click global search for an address (from headers)
Hi, I'm nearly sure that this used to work, but, for some reason what I'm after isn't working now. I have a regular need to quickly see all other emails to/from a specific address. In the past, it was my recollection that simply clicking on the From address on a currently open message would do a search for anything from that address, or, anything TO that address. At present, I can't get messages TO that address, only FROM by clicking on the header element. Is there a way to get the messages to as well? Right now I'm having to copy the address, go the search bar (or type /) and then search for the address. Would be a lot faster for what I need if I could somehow make that one-click solution work. I could be mis-remembering, of course...note that this works for Subjects, and Date (for the day of the month, not to the hour/minute/second level of accuracy). Just not From.

Re: [MlMt] dealing with large mailboxes
Hi, so my SO keeps all sent mail etc. the ~/mail/Sent folder has 97,000 messages going back to 2000 or so. mailmate is starting to choke and fail every few days. if she creates ~/mail/old/Sent mailmate will still see and have to deal with it. how are folk dealing with this? My (current) solution is a bit of a hybrid of what others have already mentioned. For the current calendar year, I keep everything in the default folders for Sent and Archive. For me, Archive is where I put things that aren't important enough for a dedicated folder, and which have been answered/dealt with. At this time of year, when there is a natural lull in my email activity due to holidays and whatnot, I undertake several housecleaning activities. Since it is now the start of 2019, the things I've done are: 1) Make a new IMAP folder for 2018 2) Move everything from my Archive folder from 2018 into the 2018 specific year folder 3) Go to my Sent folder and find all mail from 2016 (yes, 2016) and move it to the 2016 specific year folder. 4) Go to my Sent folder and find mail from the first six months of 2017 and move it to the 2017 specific year folder. My reason for the delay in processing Sent mail to specific folders is mostly due to client applications and needs I've had to search for mail. It was simply easier and faster to find a message I knew I sent by going to the Sent folder and scoping the search there, rather than trying to search all mail, or trying more complicated search combinations (this is particularly true under iOS rather than MailMate). I regularly have to find old sent mail from many years previous, but, after about 18 months or so my brain tends to forget exactly when things were sent so not matter what I have to do a more thorough search. If I can remember exactly when an email conversation took place, chances are it was within that time window. I use a handful of Smart Mailboxes in MailMate, many based on IMAP Keywords ("Tags"), and that helps. Most of my per-year folders are under 20K messages in each IMAP account (I have several). Since there are many more messages in dedicated folders, this helps keep things spread out. Not sure how much it really matters to MailMate, but, my method is really more about creating just the right number (but not too many) of boxes for me to know where to find things.

[MlMt] PSA: Mobile app that's compatible with many MailMate features.
Hi all, My apologies for those who already know this, but, last night I stumbled across an iOS app that matches many of MailMate's features, but, obviously, works mobile. MailMate is absolutely the only email client for me at my desktop, but, there are things I sometimes must do on my iPhone or iPad that are tricky to do with the standard Mail.app client there. The client I found: https://preside.io Now, the UI may not appeal to all, but, it is incredibly flexible, with a huge array of configuration options to suit many needs. For me, the highlight was: It works seamlessly with MailMate IMAP tags (as stored on FastMail, at least). There are all sorts of things like Smart Folders, integration with helper apps, quick filtering, configurable buttons, its own S/MIME certificate management, and so on. Just wanted to share this as I figured others in this community may be interested. Preside very much feels like a "power user" mail app, just as I see MailMate to be. Mobile will not be replacing desktop for me anytime soon - but to at least be able to access many of the power features MailMate has enabled for me over the years whilst mobile was a huge win.

Re: [MlMt] moving tags to new laptop
Hi Eric, Hi, I’m the happy recipient of a shiny new laptop and am configuring MailMate for it. Unhappily, I’m finding none of the many tags I’ve set on messages on my old laptop are visible on the new one. I guess that means none of my IMAP servers support saving tags. Is there a way I can copy the tags over? Where are they stored on the client? I regularly do this by copying the file: ~/Library/Application Support/MailMate/Tags.plist To new systems, or, between home/work, to keep them in sync. I make sure MailMate is not running anywhere when I copy the file, as well. It's worked well for a few years, so far!

Re: [MlMt] Copying a message
Hi, Since MailMate doesn't have a way to export email to a standard format Umm... I don't believe that to be true. Sorry - I was mixing up my directionality. I know about, and use, all of the methods you mention -- but the Keyboard Maestro macros are still something I've been making heavy use of (for my particular work flow which required the automation and variables/etc). MailMate is focussed on IMAP as a way to get mail, rather than locally managed mailboxes on a local system (that Mail.app does). That's the bit I was thinking of with respect to the complexities (Maildir vs. mbox vs whatever). Again, not a gripe at all. It's come up on the list many times over the years, and I know a number of people use things like DevonThink or their own local IMAP server to simulate the use of local mailboxes. The Import Messages feature works well for certain use cases, but not all. Thanks to Bill for summarising some of the other ways to dump/export/save a specific message.

Re: [MlMt] Copying a message
Hi Michael, I sometimes want to copy a message and paste it into another application (usually OmniOutliner, sometimes a plain-text document) -- basically something similar to what you might expect if you typed command-c when a message is selected in the message list and content was copied to the clipboard so that it can be pasted elsewhere. I'd like to get both the basic headers (from, to, subject, date) and the body, preferring plain-text formatting. There doesn't seem to be a built-in MailMate command to do this, unless I'm just overlooking something really obvious. Is there a way? Failing that, has anyone implemented anything like this already, perhaps in the form of a bundle? I looked through https://github.com/mailmate but nothing looks like like it would do it. Since MailMate doesn't have a way to export email to a standard format (not a gripe, I understand the headaches that come with that), I've solved this sort of thing via one of two paths: 1) Using the MailMate built-in "Show in Finder" command. This gives you the .eml file. You can now "do stuff" with that EML file, which may suffice. 2) Increasingly, I've been using Keyboard Maestro to create automation flows like you mention above. For example, I've created a Macro that is only active in MailMate that will select the current message, then select the Show Raw Message option. From there, Keyboard Maestro copies all of the text into a named clipboard (or system clipboard) and then activates Sublime Text. KM then pastes into Sublime Text and creates a few variables: It extracts the Subject from the headers, as well as today's date and the Date header from the email. KM can then save the message and use the variables created in the previous step to create a useful filename, saving the file as a .eml to a standardised place for my workflows. The second way is a lot more involved, possibly overkill, but, it does permit essentially "one button" activation of a macro that creates a file that I can then immediately import into OmniOutliner or anything else that reads .eml on macOS. Not quite the same as a Bundle approach, but, since I've been doing more and more with Keyboard Maestro, it was pretty easy to do. The resulting .eml works fine as an item in OmniOutliner, and clicking on it opens the message within the app. What I haven't really tried to test is how that works with loads of attachments -- but, in theory, it should work the same as using the .eml file directly from Show In Finder.

For what it is worth, this is the same issue that I reported on the 23rd of January of this year, and it still is just as prevalent today. Once MailMate gets stuck with the case sensitivity and auto-complete/matching, the only way to "clear" the state is to quit and restart. I can reproduce this 100% of the time. If I have a tag such as "ML:Fubar" and I start typing "Ml" it may show up correctly with auto-capitalisation on the L once, but, after a few backspaces and trying again, MailMate will force the capitalisation to "Ml" not ML, and won't match any tags. It seems to get stuck in this mode until quit/restart; I assign tags with the capitalisation I want by using the menus and whatnot, but, I can no longer type them with the case I want -- it just gets wedged in forcibly changing the case to the wrong value. My preference would be that at least optionally, once a tag is defined, case sensitivity for matching should be ignored and MailMate should only suggest tags in their stored/saved values, unless an entirely NEW value is being entered. That is, once it's clear that no matches match, it should allow the capitalisation to be as the user types it in. I realise that may not be possible, but, certainly if there is a matching tag, it shouldn't get confused about case when there IS a match and NOT match because the auto-corrected case isn't matching the case of the saved/existing tag value.

[MlMt] Forwarding as attachment corrupts attachments (in some cases).
Hi, I've been banging my head against the proverbial wall on this one and was wondering if it's Just Me or not. Over the last few weeks I've noticed that if I receive an email which contains attachments, and then attempt to forward that same email *as* an attachment (Message -> Forward as Attachment) that the attachment(s) become corrupt and are unable to be opened by the recipient. I am able to replicate this, but not 100% of the time. I have noticed that when it fails, I can usually detect the failure by checking the attachment size of the message as-arrived to me, and, the size that MailMate (Version 2.0BETA (6110)) reports in the compose window, or, the size of the attachments after they're sent and arrive at the destination mailbox. For example, a simple screenshot I sent myself contained a 1.2MB attachment (as reported in MailMate in the message view window). If I then forward that as an attachment, the attachment size increases to 2.1MB. But not always. When this size discrepancy appears, I know the receiving end won't be able to open the attached image (even though MailMate displays the attached email message, and the attachment name/type for preview/save). If I simply forward that same message (but not as an attachment), it stays working, 100% of the time. In looking at raw messages that I can't open, it does appear that something has gone amiss with the process. My *guess* here is that it is something to do with Office365 being involved. From a message (received, working attachment) I see that MS has injected a load of cruft around the MIME parts: --=_MailMate_BA273722-4B6C-42F7-9B20-E82276673846_= Content-Disposition: attachment; filename="Test Image.png" Content-Type: image/png Content-Transfer-Encoding: base64 X-Microsoft-Exchange-Diagnostics: 1;SY2PR01MB2683;27:R6tmwluRy+z X-Microsoft-Antispam-Message-Info: MNMPy5SSb41Wk0Z1QZbp/1S7U5 iVBORw0KGgoNSUhEUgAABLYAAAN2CAYAAADkKQCvAAAKrGlDQ1BJQ0MgUHJvZmlsZQAASImV lgdUU1kax+97L73QAqFD6E26QADpNYQmHWyEhBJKCAlBRVRUxBEcCyIiWNGhiIJjAWRQEVFsg4IK 9gEZVNRxsGBDZR+whJnds7tn/+fcvN/58t3vfve9e8/5A0C5zREK02E5ADIE2aIwP09GTGwcA/8E and so on.

[MlMt] Changing the quoted line character.
Hi, I was certain this was discussed in the past, but, I couldn't find it in the mail archives anywhere, nor the hidden preferences. One of the (infinite) infuriating things about Outlook seems to be that when it receives email where quoted lines in replies are prefaced with ">" it will effectively ignore the characters and only create a mild indentation on the screen of the unfortunate Outlook user. Is there a way to change this in MailMate so that some other symbol/character is used? I think that the HTML composer uses something that looks like a |, which would probably be okay. In manual testing, Outlook actually displayed that character, which is good. As it is, when I reply to emails that end up with Outlook users, they look like this on the Outlook side: --- On 17 March 2018, at 1001, ! Test Mail box wrote: Testing back and forth.

The easiest way to replicate it is for me to click on a mailto: URL somewhere. MailMate will then generate a new message which is often, but not always, from the first account listed in my list of accounts. If I change the "From" address, it does NOT change the account through which it is sent. I am typically reminded of this when I get an error from Apple about how I'm not permitted to send from some other domain via my iCloud account and it rejects the message. So there does seem to be some sort of a disconnect between what the From address is exiting MailMate and the actual account used for SMTP. It may well be this is somehow linked to what you've seen here. Scott ___ mailmate mailing list mailmate@lists.freron.com https://lists.freron.com/listinfo/mailmate

My memory is that sometimes it does expand to list the names and sometimes it doesn't, so I shrugged and sent it anyway -- and my BCCed copy arrived indicating that it hadn't gone to anyone else but me: there is no To: line on the message, and in the message window it shows (No Correspondent). Once MailMate matches the name of your group, hit return, or, comma (if you have other addresses). At that point, it expands to the lists of members. Not before. It also doesn't expand if you hit tab to go to the next field. I always assumed this was by design, so didn't whinge about it...but the return/comma approach has always worked for me.

One thing that triggered the same issue as you, Richard, was deployment of IPv6 support. Depending on $factors, sometimes my systems would be able to get an IPv6 connection to Gmail, other times it would only be IPv4 - but some IPv6 changes at my provider level also meant that every few hours I'd be getting a new /56 delegation (annoying) which resulted in lots of those sorts of messages.

[MlMt] Editing learned recipients.
Hi, Whilst doing some testing I sent a number of messages to a temporary address which has since been learned by MailMate as a known-recipient -- thus, whenever I start typing the first few letters of that address, the autocomplete pops up with that as a suggestion. How can I erase that learned entry? It clashes with another address I use more frequently (which is a "Group" I've defined in Address Book), which is now more awkward to get to due to the similarity in the names. Mail.app lets you edit known recipients to clear things like this up, but, I'm not sure where to go in MailMate to do the same...and I'd prefer not to forget *all* learned addresses, but if that's the only way, I can probably live with that as well.

[MlMt] Heads up for insanely early adopters: macOS Sierra and MailMate
Hi all, After a glass of wine it seemed like a fantastic idea to update my iMac to macOS Sierra Beta 1. Like all great ideas which are fuelled by fermented and/or distilled beverages, there have been moments of regret. MailMate *mostly* works, but, in case any of you were thinking of going this route, learn from my pain: 0) macOS Sierra is towards the Alpha side of Beta, don't expect things to work well, be happy anything works at all. Don't harass developers for support yet. 1) The Keychain seems to have been seriously overhauled, or, broken, depending upon how you look at it. This impacted MailMate for all stored credentials and having to re-enter them. Not a big deal, but, time consuming. 2) I use a private TLS protected mail server for my outgoing mail, with my own self-signed certificate protecting it. This caused MailMate to crash hard on Sierra. The fix was to use openssl to grab the PEM and import it into the Keychain with full Trust. No more MailMate crashing on sending SMTP. 3) MailMate can not see your Contacts/Address Book. This will be a deal blocker for most people - and indeed, it's been the biggest headache here. It can see its own internal list of previous recipients, which is good, but, that's it. I tried resetting the Address Book with tccutil, and whilst MailMate prompted for access, obviously something has changed in the format and nothing is actually seen (including in the Address panel in MailMate). Other than that, MailMate seems to be working okay. This is just a heads up for others, I don't expect Benny to make any changes to support Sierra for many months to come.

Re: [MlMt] NUL character warnings (v5246)
Hi, Yes, I got it at least twice in the last few days. Also with FastMail. It happened when I would try to send a message. Quitting and relaunching MailMate fixed it and allowed the message to be sent (I think I had FastMail open in the browser in the background and could see that the message was sent only after relaunching). My fix is typically to delete the offending message from my Sent Items list in MailMate, and then quit/restart and synchronise the mailbox, or, I will export the messages (this morning it was five or six messages) into an "mbox" format, then delete them from MailMate, quit MailMate, then use Mail.app to re-import them to IMAP (works fine), and re-start MailMate.

Hi, It's not clear to me that MailMate misbehaves though. This is also supported by the comment in the headers you provided: Comments: Did not say From: u...@company.com at sender's request This appears to mean that the sender did this intentionally. I'm not sure that is as literal as it may appear. ;-) It's a Mailman mailing list and the "Comments" value is the same (except for the username) for everyone that this is happening to. I'm not sure if it's a Mailman setting, for example, that's causing this. Since the clients are varied, and OS X Mail.app certainly doesn't have an option that I know of here, my hunch has been Mailman + MailMate's interpretation. Any way to get the u...@company.com to be recognised here? I guess it would be best if both addresses were easily accessible...

Whilst I can do this by using the search box and just the email address, I was hoping to do it by simply clicking on an email address in an already open message. Right now, if I click on the From address, MailMate will ONLY look for messages from that email address. For the subject, it looks for all messages "related to" that address. And, of course, clicking on the To address looks for other messages to that same address. What I'd like, is a way to perhaps option-click on an address and have anything to/from it be found. Or some sort of a toggle to change the default click behaviour from "just from" to "to or from"...etc. As I say, I know this can easily be done by using the search features, but I was looking for a quick one-click solution here, if possible.

Re: [MlMt] Escaping from a search returns to the last message in a folder.
Hi, If I search for something, either using the search box in the corner, or, clicking on something like a subject or a sender in a currently displayed mail - then when I then type "escape" to exit out of the search-view, I'm returned to the very first message of my inbox. I think this has always been the case and its not new. To rephrase, if you search and read old mails, then hit "escape", then you remain on that old mail, but without the search interface. If you want to go back to the top of the list of mails, then you have to scroll up. Frankly, in some cases I find it useful since you are left in the context of that old mail, but yeah, sometimes you are done with old mail and want to get back to the new... Not quite. It literally goes to the very first message in my inbox for the account that I started the search from - it doesn't stay on the old message that I found in the search, it re-selects the very first (oldest) message in the mailbox that (likely) has nothing to do with the search. Example: Select Inbox for Home account. See most recent message at top. Click on most recent message to display. Now type "/ f wilbur" All messages from wilbur are now displayed. I scroll to one, select it, display it. Now I hit escape. I'm back at the Home inbox, but, MailMate is showing a message from Belinda, which happens to be the very first message (oldest) in the Inbox. The situation you describe was the old situation that I was happy with, but for the last week whenever I leave a search I'm taken to the oldest message in the inbox, if I was in the inbox when I started the search. scott ___ mailmate mailing list mailmate@lists.freron.com http://lists.freron.com/listinfo/mailmate

Under the "Unread" smart folder the width for columns, especially the "Date Received" column, seems to keep being reset to something relatively narrow. I'll adjust it, but, as soon as all messages are read and the virtual-folder vanishes, and new mail is found at some time in the future, the columns are back to the way they were.

Re: [MlMt] possibly unpopular feature request
Hi, The way that Apple Mail handles threads (new messages at the top of the conversation, no attempt at the mutt-style threading of individual replies) actually works far better for me than the way that MailMate currently does things. Again, I appreciate that my brain is broken and that I am wrong about many things. What are the chances that there could be a configurable option to use Mail.app-style presentation of threads as an alternative to what MailMate currently does? I'd like to make a somewhat tangential request here - I also *want* to use the Threading on MailMate, but, can't, due to the sheer volume, and indeed, how I prefer to sort messages, but part of what I do appreciate about Mail.app is that when you're not in thread mode, you can still visually see messages in the same thread in the message list pane. This makes it really easy to spot if you want to command-click and select/delete them all, or just want to visually scan where the messages are in the context of the rest of the folder. I'd really like some way to do this in MailMate.

Re: [MlMt] Silencing the beep when mail is checked
Hi, For what it's worth, MailMate currently doesn't interact directly with the OS X notification system. Instead MailMate relies on the third party Growl framework which uses the OS X notification system when Growl is not installed. But I consider to remove the dependence on Growl since I believe Growl hasn't been updated for quite a while. Anyone objecting to such a change can try writing me off list :-) Object, no! I wholeheartedly support the idea, and would love to see functionality that Mail.app’s notifications provide, specifically the ability to remove/delete a message from the notification itself. :) Yes, yes, yes, a thousand times yes. One of the most used features I have with MailMate right now is to see a notification (via Growl) come in for something I know is spam, or annoying, or not something I want - I then go to the menu bar, find the notification icon, click and go to the row for the notification for that mail item, and select delete. Often done before the Growl notification has ever left the screen. But to see the notification appear and have it have a button to "delete" right there, oh man, yes please!

I've had this before with Word documents, can't recall if they were .doc or .docx, but at the moment .docx does seem to Quick Look fine. Just me? The HTML attachments render fine on iOS Mail or in Mail.app, or if I save them and open in Safari or whatnot, but, I'd prefer not to.

Re: [MlMt] I do not have unread count for sub mailboxes anymore
Hi, Scott - thanks for confirming; I hope it will be fixed soon since as you i'm lost without them. Try the latest test release (r5075).

[MlMt] r5073 compose window address visibility.
Hi, I am not 100% certain, but, I think this behaviour is something I've seen off and on in beta/test builds... The issue is that if I'm composing a message to several people, the "To" field sometimes, but not always, doesn't expand to show all recipients. The "blue box" of an address or two will be listed, but others will wrap beneath and lose visibility. They're still there, I can navigate with the arrow to show one line at a time, but that's not ideal. It's not always, it's only sometimes...anyone else seen (or not seen, as the case may be) this?

Re: [MlMt] r5072 - Unread Smartfolder not displaying message count for sub-folders
Hi, With the latest Alpha, 5072, my Unread smart folder displays a total count of unread messages in all folders, but, when I expand the Unread folder it does not display the message count for each individual folder beneath it. It will display the name of the folder with unread messages, however. It was a premature release of a new feature. I've changed the feature and hopefully also fixed this bug. This is in the latest test release. 5073 is still doing this. FYI. Cheers, Scott ___ mailmate mailing list mailmate@lists.freron.com http://lists.freron.com/listinfo/mailmate
Re: [MlMt] r5072 - Unread Smartfolder not displaying message count for sub-folders
Hi, new mail arrives and is detected in various folders, the Unread folder can have a dynamically updating list of how many unread messages are present in what folder. Might be a nice option. I'm not sure I follow. Can't you just leave it expanded? Does it collapse by itself? Yes. As soon as you've read the last unread message, the folder automatically collapses. And, as often happens, new mail arrives shortly thereafter and I'm left with "Unread38" (or whatever). It would just be a time-saver for me if the expanded view for that smart folder could stay expanded, but as folders get read (marked "Seen", which is how the Unread smart folder is set up -- folders where messages are not Seen), they would vanish from the list (and only re-appear when new mail is sorted into them).

[MlMt] r5070 - UI issue with text entry (compose)
Hi, I've actually noticed this for a few versions now, but, in r5070 it seems worse. In earlier versions, if I were to reply to a message and paste a block (say, 20-30 lines) of text at the top (I hate top-quoting, but, let's worry about that problem later), the rest of the text in the compose window would be VERY slow to update, indeed, during the initial paste a few lines would disappear for half a second during a re-draw. With the current alpha build, any amount of text entry at the top of a message seems to create a very slow UI update for the rest of the text being pushed downwards. This is on a pretty well spec'd 64GB RAM laden new MacPro, so, confident the issue isn't my local hardware...

Re: [MlMt] suggestion - search buttons
Hi, Well, I might not have “finished” this feature, but it's certainly in a useful state now. Fetch the latest test release, read the instructions in the release notes, and try it out. Couple of bugs: 1) Select a mailbox, enter a word to search for in box, alt-enter. Matches display for that mailbox, but, clicking on one of the messages reverts the search to "All Mailboxes" and ends up displaying a *different* message than the one was clicked upon. Tested this with an INBOX as the original search mailbox. 2) Personal preference: If you "x" to clear a search in the search box, it should also have the effect of "-" to remove the search terms. Loving this feature though. Must send Benny more money. ___ mailmate mailing list mailmate@lists.freron.com http://lists.freron.com/listinfo/mailmate

Hi, Well, I might not have “finished” this feature, but it's certainly in a useful state now. Fetch the latest test release, read the instructions in the release notes, and try it out. Also, I believe I've fixed the worst bugs in the 64 bit version of MailMate. If recent releases have been unstable for you then try again now. Just started with new search bar enabled. This is amazing! nuff'said. Enter / Alt+Enter is a lifesafer and going to have fun learning the various qualifiers. Love it. GREAT start. And thank you for NOT making it live-updating. I'm sure some people would like that, but, that significantly slows things down, and this actually gives a super zippy result. I also like the idea of the keybinding option down the road, so that "/" or whatever triggers going to the search box. Very vi-like, I appreciated that suggestion. ;-) The keywords may be something you want to think about, possibly adding punctuation like "m:" or "f:" -- I don't think I can search for the letter "m" as a single letter in my messages, for example. Odd as it may sound, that's the sort of thing I need to do from time to time. GREAT stuff Benny, thank you so much!!

Re: [MlMt] suggestion - search buttons
Hi, But anyway, once we get the cool Google like search field where I can type "from:foo AND to:bar", then this point will be a moot point... Oh man, I'd pay a reasonable sum of money to have a search interface like this, using the various key-words from the drop downs instead of the dropdown. "from:*.domain.com before:01-12-2014 after:17-03-2013 NOT (subject:"Invoice*" OR from:landl...@evil.com)" Implicit "and" between operations, etc etc. Oh yes. $50? $100? $250?

[MlMt] Bug that's tough to replicate: ddoouubbllee..
Hi, Tough bug for me to replicate, but, it's happened three times this morning with v5035. When a message is selected I bring up the "Move To" panel and start typing the name of a folder. Sometimes, but not always, every letter I press is duplicated for input in MailMate's search box. Instead of "wife" being typed, it will be wwiiffee, for which there is no match.. The only way to fix it is to close the Move To panel and re-open it, which typically makes it all work again. Not sure if there's an easy way for you to look at this Benny, or if anyone else is seeing it... Scott ___ mailmate mailing list mailmate@lists.freron.com http://lists.freron.com/listinfo/mailmate
Re: [MlMt] Mail archiving best practice
Hi, Any advice on best practice for archiving emails from MailMate? My preference is to archive in DevonThink, which holds my email archives from the mid 2000s. But it seems that MailMate and Devonthink don't hook up, so I'm looking for other robust options that are Spotlight searchable. Any advice appreciated. I'd like to do this in a more automated fashion as well - I've returned to DevonThink pretty heavily lately and would like my mail there as well. The issue is, and Benny will correct me if I'm wrong, that MailMate doesn't do mbox; it's IMAP only. As such, you're really somewhat stuck putting it into a local archive. When I want to archive something off of an IMAP server, I tend to run Mail.app, save the folder as a local mbox archive, and either import that to DevonThink, or, keep it in Tresorit (secure cloudy hosting) or just keep it on my backup drives. It WOULD be nice if MailMate could archive an IMAP folder as Maildir format, or mbox, but I know that isn't really where the product is heading.

[MlMt] Opening .eml attachments.
Hi, I've been sent/forwarded some emails by others, but MailMate doesn't seem to be opening them. Standard .eml format - no winmail.dat evil -- but whenever I tell MailMate to open the attachment, it pops over to Mail.app. So I tried saving and then opening specifically with MailMate (Open With ->..) -- alas, that just opens that email up as an attachment for a new message. Now, I can Import the .eml, but for some reason that sent it to the Archive folder on my iCloud account (that was not the currently selected mailbox when I did the Import). Is there a way to natively just open/view a .eml email attachment, or a better way to deal with them in MailMate?

Re: [MlMt] Bulk deletion.
Hi, Sometimes nothing happens. Sometimes one of the messages deletes...but I can't think of a time when they all actually seem to delete. This is new to me. Do you think it is a recent problem (64 bit betas)? No, it's been here for months, perhaps as long as I've used MailMate, but I only got around to whinging about it now. Contrasted with Mail.app where if I select a range of messages or all messages in a folder, read or unread, and hit backspace/delete, they're gone... Hmm, I guess that rules out the Sieve theory. Yeah, it's not Sieve, but, the problem seems to be confined to the Smart Mailbox I've created for "Unread" messages. If I go directly to a folder, it works. Happy to look at the MSG ID route, but, it's entirely consistent for me with Smart Folder / Smart Mailboxes -- If I have 10 messages, select any one of them, then select-all, and hit delete (d or the Delete button) then only the first message is deleted). If I try the same thing in the mailbox itself, it works. Scott ___ mailmate mailing list mailmate@lists.freron.com http://lists.freron.com/listinfo/mailmate
[MlMt] Bulk deletion.
Hi, A curiosity I've noticed with MailMate is that if I have a lot of messages to delete, it won't reliably do so unless I've read them, or marked them as read, first. On some mailing lists I'm on (not MailMate..) there are entire threads which may arrive over the course of a few hours and I have no interest in them, or just a lot of messages in a row from a broken cron job. I'll go to the Unread smart-folder I've created, see the list of messages in that particular Sieve-sorted folder, command-a to select all messages, and hit delete. Sometimes nothing happens. Sometimes one of the messages deletes...but I can't think of a time when they all actually seem to delete. However, if I first mark them all as read and THEN delete, it seems to take. Contrasted with Mail.app where if I select a range of messages or all messages in a folder, read or unread, and hit backspace/delete, they're gone... Something to look at, or is it Just Me?

I've never worked out exactly the scenario when one or the other happens - but my sense is it has to do with the MIME types detected in the original mail. If the message is nothing other than ASCII/plain text, it will likely be able to easily forward inline. However, if it is multipart/mixed, MailMate probably tries to do the safe thing and forward as an attachment. I generally prefer forwarding inline; but I haven't looked for a way to always do that, stripping out any bits that may make it less feasible.
