Also, known bug that default columns relatively randomly revert to
original standard default and you must find a mailbox that still shows
your desired columns, use "use as default columns" on that mailbox, then
go to your offending mailboxes and use "revert to default" on each of
them. Sometimes it will stick for a few days or weeks, sometimes you'll
be needing to "revert to default" every single time you switch
mailboxes. This bug is well known to the author and hopefully will be
fixed someday.
I do think all mailboxes should use a user's default columns and not the
standard default if a person sets up their own. The behavior mentioned
by Robert should not happen. I consider that a bug in itself, also, but
that is my opinion.

MailMate only has 1 default set of columns (see “Use as/Revert to
Default Columns” in the columns menu).
I tried that.
Steps to reproduce:
I choosed all columns in one mailbox which I need.
I set all widths to the size I prefer.
Than I choosed "Use as Default Columns".
But all the other mailboxes do not overtake the set nor the sizes.
But, as readers of this list knows, there are bugs in the column
save/restore system which means it doesn't always behave as you
might expect.
May be I have wrong expectations about the feature.

You need to right-click on the column headers in each mailbox and
select to use the default columns. Yes, for each mailbox separately.
New mailboxes use default setting by default but if you changed
anything in any mailbox, the defaults are ignored unless you tell MM
explicitly to start using them again.
A few mailboxes do not use default settings no matter what. This was
discussed in an earlier thread. Sent and Drafts come to my mind but
there was at least one more. The default settings are not optimal for
those anyway, so it is not a real issue.
