Not off-topic at all - I began this thread with Devonthink. What's your
workflow for getting MailMate messages into Devonthink?

I think it would be much better if MailMate triggered MailSteward
itself, e.g., by making a copy of each archived message in a
separate
folder (in which MailSteward would then be allowed to delete
imported
messages). It would also be more efficient since MailSteward would
then not need to scan already imported messages.
Benny, this is similar to how I use MailSteward and not involve it
directly with my mail accounts. I have a Smart Mailbox that
recollects
mails based on date conditions (older than 3 months, not
flagged/unread,
etc) and then has a Rule that exports to a folder and then moves it
to a
Deleted folder. Then MailSteward daily recollects this messages from
the
folder, not from the mail accounts. This has been working very well
for
me.
My practice currently is to archive/index email with DEVONthink, but
the
process of getting things into DEVONthink isn't always elegant. I
haven't used MailSteward at all and I'm skittish of introducing Yet
Another Database into the mix of things. All of my research and
projects
materials are in DEVONthink already so it seems like the place
messages
should live too.
It also lets me correlate messages to other projects really easily and
can be searched with Spotlight, which is pretty awesome.
