Can MailMate be extended to interact with other programs? I see no
mention of that anywhere, so I guess not. Is that considered for the

MailMate has so-called bundles (see the Bundles preferences pane). In
addition to that, there is the
[`emate`](https://manual.mailmate-app.com/emate) command and an extended
[`mailto:`](https://manual.mailmate-app.com/extended_url_scheme) URL
scheme. There is little AppleScript support, but the `perform` command
can be quite useful. Apparently, I've not documented [that last
one](https://www.mail-archive.com/mailmate@lists.freron.com/msg03350.html)
:-(
The reason I ask is that we are using Daylite as our CRM software and
one of its features is a nice integration with Apple Mail, which
provides really useful functionality.

I've looked into this in the past and it appears to be a huge task to
replicate (and far from straightforward).
As it is, it seems that we need to use Apple Mail for business mails
and MailMate for any other mails.
I just noticed that MailMate is not even on the list of mail clients
that their system can use for sending mail:

If you ask them then let them know I'm willing to add whatever they need
to make it work. I *think* all they need is the
[AppleScript](https://manual.mailmate-app.com/extended_url_scheme)
support for creating new messages.
