I was also a heavy user of MailHub and loved the way it usually knew
which mailbox I wanted to file a message to. (Incidentally, the
‘Preside’ email client on iOS also does this well.) I second the
request, it would be great to have this feature in Mailmate.
In the meantime, one thing that makes filing relatively easy even
without the prediction is that Mailmate learns the keys you type to
select a mailbox in the ‘Move to Mailbox’ window, so after filing
messages for a few days you will probably find that you can select a
mailbox with only one or two keys, so it’s pretty quick.

Hi,
I’ve been trialing Mailmate for a week and am very happy with its
performance thus far. Loving the robust and performant searching,
filtering, organizing features!
It would be a dream if the *Move to Mailbox* feature used a
“frecency” algorithm to suggest mailboxes, a-la the old Apple Mail
plugin, Mailhub:
From an [archived
manual](https://web.archive.org/web/20160612034546/http://dervishsoftware.s3.amazonaws.com/documents/MailHubManual.pdf
):
… MailHub is intuitive software that will suggest folders to file
emails to based on criteria such as subject, sender and previous
administration activity.
When you first install the program, MailHub will automatically index
your mailboxes to identify your common filing behaviour. This will
allow it to ‘auto-suggest’ appropriate mailboxes to file to.
MailHub will then continue to learn as you file. …
I’m sure there’s no end of new features on your list, Benny, but
I’m confident you’ll agree that this one surpasses all the rest in
its brilliance and obvious necessity, and you will have no choice but
to start work on it immediately. ;)
Seriously though, I know feature requests are a bane, but just wanted
to share my appreciation for the work you’ve already done and throw
my birthday wishes out into the ether.
Cheers,
