But why bother with counters.txt and stdout and stdin? I would suggest quitting MailMate, making a copy of ~/Library/Preferences/com.freron.MailMate.plist, editing the copy directly in a reliable text editor such as BBEdit…

You could try that, but you’ll quickly notice that com.freron.MailMate.plist is a binary file.

That's not my experience.

That's interesting:

$ file ~/Library/Preferences/com.freron.MailMate.plist
/Users/XXXX/Library/Preferences/com.freron.MailMate.plist: Apple binary property list

$ sw_vers
ProductName:    Mac OS X
ProductVersion: 10.15.7
BuildVersion:   19H2026

$ man pl | grep old
pl can be used to check the syntax of old-style ASCII property list

Do not know when "old-style ASCII" plists were superseded by "Apple binary."
