Hello.

I’d like to change the format of replies to show

`From:`
`Subject:`
`Date:`
`To:`

instead of the

`On [date] at [time] [name <address>] wrote:`

reply sentence. I have looked at https://manual.mailmate-app.com/hidden_preferences but don’t see anything there that seems to answer my question.

Is this possible?

First let me say that it makes me cry that you want to do this, because it means that you have eschewed inline editing of replies, which every right-thinking email user should do. But since I am merely tilting at a windmill, you want something like this:

defaults write com.freron.MailMate MmReplyWroteString -string '> From: ${from}\n> Subject:\n${subject}\n> Date: ${date}\n> To: ${to}'

The only real problem I saw with the above is that a long Subject will end up wrapping to the next line in a weird way. Perhaps there's some way to hack around with that. But that will mostly get you what you want.
