Just flagging this as solved for me. I went to do updates, and for some reason I was on a beta / pre-release version. Mailmate prompted me to downgrade, I did, and all is well.

Worth noting.

I checked in response to this and I see

MailMate 5673 is the latest version available—you have version 5673.

So ... Maybe that's a beta?

Is there anything we should do to identify the issue in the beta so it doesn't slip through into production?

Hmmm.... That doesn't look like the latest version. Wonder what's going wrong for me in software update? Anyone have any suggestions?

However, if I change it to ...

1. edit rules for mailbox 'foo'
2. switch to some other mailbox (doesn't matter which one)
3. switch back to mailbox 'foo'
4. run rules manually

I just tried this, and no joy unfortunately. I even quit and re-launched.


I have been having the exact same problem. Interestingly, the use of rules in defining smart mailboxes seems to be fine, and at least some of my old rules are working. I just cannot seem to get a new rule to work.

I have seen anomalies in development of rules, too -- I was trying to build them using tagging as the action (so I could easily see the effect of a rule), I would add and then delete conjuncts to a rule and this change was not idempotent: the rules would stop working with the new conjunct, but would not start working again when I deleted it.

I have a vague memory of Benny saying there was some way to debug the rules (by enabling some kind of MM logging to the screen), but I have forgotten how to do it. 😢 I think I had to toggle some preference and then start MailMate from the command line...
