I'm just guessing, but I suspect this is saved as a virtual header in
Gmail. Might want to research that. When creating a smart mailbox
condition, click "Other" at the bottom of the drop down. I see
"Importance" listed, but don't know how it would work since I've
moved away from Gmail recently.
Thanks -- I'd searched for "Important" not "Importance" in the "Other
..." list, and so hadn't found it. It's not clear what it means, and a
few simple tests with it haven't done anything noticeable.
I suspect the tag/flag is available outside GMail somehow, because
I've tried a third-party Mac OSX mail client that knew the tag/flag.
It's the recently-launched AirMail, and in the preferences it maps
"[Gmail]/Important" to this internal special flag/tag.
Trying to add a Condition where Tag includes "Gmail/Important" or
"Important" don't work either. And I can't test for
"[Gmail]/Important" as I can't define an IMAP term with angle brackets
in the tags dialog. (Well, it allows '[' but not ']' oddly enough.
Bug?)
And to add to this, I went into Gmail settings, and discovered that the
Important label wasn't being published over IMAP. I'd changed that
setting ages ago for reasons I now can't remember. However, after a
re-start or two, MailMate doesn't seem to be showing the "Important"
label under Gmail source or [Gmail] folder. (And it has picked up other
label changes I made in Gmail settings at the same time.) More and more
curious ...
