I would also be happy to help add more details because I appreciate good
documentation. :)
I remember there is a GitHub repository:
[https://github.com/mailmate/mailmate_manual](https://github.com/mailmate/mailmate_manual).
I even submitted some [pull requests as
"muescha"](https://github.com/mailmate/mailmate_manual/pulls?q=sort%3Aupdated-desc+is%3Apr+author%3Amuescha)
whenever I discovered hidden preferences while browsing the archives and
mailing lists.
However, since there was no Continuous Integration (CI) setup with
GitHub Actions to automatically publish new pull requests to the live
website, I eventually stopped contributing because my changes were never
published.
Here are my suggestions:
- Perhaps Benny could set up CI with GitHub Actions for the manual, as
this would encourage contributions to the repository. :)
- Benny could consider generating a plain list of preferences (via a
code scan to identify the names and where they are used). With this
initial list, contributors could expand the documentation with more
details.

be great to have them a little documented or available as settings.
😊
just to throw out an idea:
maybe us users could start a wiki and document them there in order to
ease the load on Benny.
Once documented this could be moved easier to the main documentation
easier while also being accessible for others in an easier fashion
than thru the mailing list archive.
