The standard.plist file is inside the application bundle where it's not easily messed with: Macintosh HD > Applications > MailMate.app > Contents > Resources > Keybindings > Standard.plist On the Mac, applications are actually folders but don't display as such. There's an easy way to open them, but it's generally a bad idea. If you think something is corrupted or misconfigured inside the application bundle, it's best to reinstall the app. ___ mailmate mailing list mailmate@lists.freron.com https://lists.freron.com/listinfo/mailmate

I’ve looked and looked to find some checkbox? Sorry for the very late response to this. I wanted to chime in and say that in my (fully functional) instance of MailMate 5964, my interface matches yours — that is, when I have a message selected (but not opened) in the message list and I open the Message menu, the keyboard shortcuts are all grayed out. However, as in your screenshot, the names of most commands are ***not*** grayed out, and the keyboard shortcuts for those commands do work, despite being grayed out in the menu. But for you, they don't work, is that right? When working keyboard shortcuts appear grayed out in a menu, that is an interface bug, IMO. Yes, I have Custom Keybindings Enabled with a special that I created to warn me when I send mail from this address. that’s it. Something is getting in the way? I use Alfred and Hazel but not Keyboard Maestro or anything like that. Ideas? Thanks Annamarie ___ mailmate mailing list mailmate@lists.freron.com https://lists.freron.com/listinfo/mailmate
Re: [MlMt] None of the keyboard shortcuts working Handholding please
Hi I’m deciding that an answer to my issue is to reinstall MM. I think I’m missing the standard.plist file. At least I can’t find it. (User error in creating keybindings?) So I shouldn’t copy over my /Library/Application Support/Mailmate folder since I’ll replicate my issue? But I have signatures and smart mailboxes and multiple accounts that I’d like to preserve so I do need to copy over these files? (all .plist) Identities Mailboxes signatures Managed/keychain Is that right? What about sources.plist?
