Eudora for Mac took the opposite approach: it defined a set of "boring" header fields that it omitted from the message view. A message could always be viewed in raw form, which Eudora called "Blah Blah Blah" which would show everything. The set of boring header fields was available after enabling the "Esoteric Settings" option, which caused a preference pane called "Boring Headers" to be available. This was a list of header field prefixes, one per line, that Eudora would omit from a message display (except in "Blah Blah Blah" view). Header fields not in the list were displayed. It would be good if MailMate had a UI mechanism for choosing which header fields are displayed in message views. (By the way, Eudora had a large set of hidden preferences that were not part of the primary UI, but could be edited by use of the "X-Eudora-Setting" URI. You'd have the string where "xxx" was the setting number to change somewhere in a Eudora message (you could type it in to a composition window or have it saved as a stationery or send it to yourself -- I had a stationery (permanent draft message) with the full list) and Eudora would recognize it as a clickable URI. Clicking it brought up a primitive control that listed a brief text description of the setting, showed the current value, and let you set a new value. It was a serviceable kluge allowing end users to change hidden settings without risk of messing up a critical file. For the full list, see: https://web.archive.org/web/20050924173435/www.eudora.com/techsupport/mac/download/X-Eudora-Settings.txt) --Randall ___ mailmate mailing list mailmate@lists.freron.com https://lists.freron.com/listinfo/mailmate
Re: [MlMt] Adding header fields to message view (was " attachment in headers display")
The main file you need to override is /Applications/MailMate.app/Contents/Resources/Layouts/headersFormatting.plist so you need to create ~/Library/Application Support/Resources/Layouts/headersFormatting.plist. You should start with a copy of the original and adapt it. You might also need to supplement /Applications/MailMate.app/Contents/Frameworks/OakMIME.framework/Versions/A/Resources/specifiers.plist which is done by adding a file with additional parser definitions at ~/Library/Application Support/MailMate/Resources/specifiers.plist Thanks for the tip on where/how to override the specifiers file. For my circumstance, I believe I will need that as well as the formatting file. Should be fun! This actually worked really well and was easy. Although I added a shorthand to the specifiers.plist file for ‘delegate’, I’m not sure I actually needed it, as the headers field ‘sender’ was already available to me in that file, and I didn’t actually reference the delegate shorthand in the headersFormatting.plist when I started working in there. I basically just copied the section for “From” in the headersFormatting.plist file and changed all instances of “From” and “from” in the new section to “Sender” and “sender” and restarted MailiMate. Now when I am viewing a message that has both a from and a sender field in the header, they are both displayed and in a standard message with just the from field, only that is displayed. The conditional logic behind it must be elsewhere. Simple and brilliant customization.

Your file is very different from mine. Are you using the 1.x series of MM or the 2.x beta version? I’m using the 2.x beta and suspect that’s the reason for so many differences throughout the file. v On 24 Apr 2019, at 13:03, Zvi Biener wrote: I've attached a copy of headersFormatting.plist, which controls the headers display.

Re: [MlMt] Adding header fields to message view (was " attachment in headers display")
I've attached a copy of headersFormatting.plist, which controls the
headers display. I'm sure it is an awful hack (I'm not a programmer).
But it does display the source mailbox (as "Folder"), as long as your
select View->Headers->list. You can emulate that part of the code.
