Re: [MlMt] Narrowing down searches with double click

I can't find anything other than killing the entire search and manually entering the subject (or browsing until I find it). Yes, this is a problem. I realized it myself shortly after implementing the search system, but I have postponed finding a solution ever since. You'll be happy to know that I revisited the issue today and I've added that search items can be right-clicked and then a menu item allows you to remove the search item under the mouse. A bit quicker, you can also hold down ⌥ when clicking on the item and it'll be removed. Finally, moving back in history brings the search item back. I haven't used it much yet, but it seems to at least remove the annoyance of not being able to do anything at all. (I'm not sure when I'm ready to release a test version with this feature.) -- Benny ___ mailmate mailing list mailmate@lists.freron.com http://lists.freron.com/listinfo/mailmate

IMAP folders just have fixed conditions (matching messages with a virtual header specifying their server location). If you have rules specified for any kind of mailbox then they should be triggered no matter what you have or have not viewed in MailMate. Benny, so is there a monitor or some scheduled process continually executing rules in MailMate? No, rules are simply triggered when a message is added to a mailbox (internally a mailbox is a “live” query). I thought this was not possible and that rules only applied to new mail/moves, until I tried this rule for archiving. Before, I just did archiving once I reached 80% quota, but now its taking care of itself (MailSteward has a scheduler that runs every x hours/minutes/etc). I fixed some problems with date-based queries not so long ago, but otherwise this has not been changed. It's the opposite, there has been some problem with rules being applied too often (e.g, when rebuilding the database). Currently, rules for a mailbox are only triggered when something is added to the mailbox, but this is not a technical limitation. I could easily change this to the rules being applied whenever messages in the mailbox meet the conditions of the rules. This could be a per-rule-option at some point, but I haven't quite decided how that should work yet. When I have more time I should write a bit about how the query system in MailMate is implemented... -- Benny ___ mailmate mailing list mailmate@lists.freron.com http://lists.freron.com/listinfo/mailmate

[MlMt] autocomplete in 10.9 vs 10.6 - no longer prefers words already in email body
Hello, I have just changed to a new laptop running 10.9.2 from one running 10.6.8. I did not import settings as I had done on my previous few upgrades. I notice a mildly annoying change in the behaviour of the autocomplete. When I press Esc it no longer prefers words that are already in the text of the email. For example I was previously using this to autocomplete long names. Can this behaviour be adjusted or is it an OS-dependent change? Many thanks, Greg.

[MlMt] Condition the default message view preference on
Hi, I know we have a "Prefer plain text" option in the preferences that allows us to pick the default "view" of an email as text (or not). Currently I have this set to "prefer plain text". I'm curious, however, if this preference can be different based on some condition. For instance, I might actually prefer work related emails (ie. if the email is sent from someone within my co's domain) to default to view as HTML since some people genuinely put useful formatting in their emails (or general announcements might include useful formatting) that I would want to see from the outset -- of course if everyone wrote with markdown syntax, the plain text would do just as well, but alas ;-) Is it possible to somehow (documented or otherwise) set this preference based on some rule based something? As mentioned, regex matching against headers (from/to) could be ideal -- but even just a preference based on the email account the mail lands in would be helpful as well. Not sure if one would be easier than the other based on what's "in" mailmate already.

This is the purpose of the currently disabled “events” in the rule editor. For now, the only alternative event implemented is messages leaving a mailbox (not available in the GUI), but new messages (fetched from the server) is also a candidate. A workaround might be to add a condition on the read state of the message or the so-called “Recent” flag (this might be too strict and is not supported by all servers). -- Benny ___ mailmate mailing list mailmate@lists.freron.com http://lists.freron.com/listinfo/mailmate

MailMate could simply allow you to specify a mailbox containing the messages for which plain text should be preferred. The default should be “All Messages” although there is a technical problem here since this mailbox does not include trash/junk.
